I've been in this store many times, and no matter what I'm looking for, they somehow have it tucked away somewhere. You just have to know whether to check upstairs or downstairs. They make the most of their space and keep a wide variety of items in stock. It's a clean, organized store with good staff and good deals. I always end up finding what I need, and the service keeps me coming bacK.

Was greeted instantly by a gentleman in the shoe section who was quick to recommend a few choices and didn't hesitate to go back and forth a few times. Big 5 has a decent selection of shoes and some big names. However, there prices are still too close to what you would pay in a named shoe store itself, like nike, adidas, new balance, etc. And while I didn't end up buying anything the customer service and staff as a whole were super helpful and pleasant. Lastly, now that it is summer they most certainly have everything one would need with regards to swimwear, pop up chairs, towels you name it. This Big 5 location has been a fixture in Culver City for a long time. Let's hope it stays that way.

I came to grab hats, emergency whistles, field glasses and canteens. Everything is great except the canteens! At approximately $12-18 each the strap is far too short to wear comfortably as a crossbody, which means the blanket canteens were a total financial loss for me! Wanting to show my grandchildren how to go out and hike safely and carry what one needs to be safe or call for help, every other item has met our needs. Ask to open packages and see the product, they may have a display piece, don't get the blanket canteen thinking you can wear it across your body, it is a shoulder carry at best. At approximately $200 spent I am woefully disappointed BUT another lesson I was able to teach my grandchildren about policy signage, asking to touch and see merchandise ensuring items meets your needs prior to purchasing.

The staff was welcoming and we were directed to the side of the store that had my son's size. Ashley greeted us and was just a pleasure to work with. She made sure the shoe fit properly which is a huge plus for me because I have a growing pre-teen. Ashley really showed us personalized attention and she sold us another pair of cross trainer shoes for just everyday school use. We came in for one pair and left with two! And to top it off, Cassandra at check-out was so nice and patient as my son gathered his gift card and cash to pay for his birthday purchase. I was impressed with how carefully she checked the shoes and placed them back into the box with care which is something that I care about. Overall, we had a great shopping experience and will visit again.

In dealing with the assistant manager who argues with you, rolls his eyes, tells the customer that they are wrong (despite his inability to do a simple exchange and a return with two separate receipts) & then still get charged incorrectly. We left with discontent for a place that once was a childhood staple. As he spent 20 minutes trying to do so while slamming the scanner, refusing to listen or admit fault, & making a lady wait behind when he could have called someone else... I began to wonder how this place stays open. In going on a separate occasion I watched another teller ignore an elderly man making a purchase, & consistently give him attitude as he inquired about his purchases. Additionally there's no common customer service or hello or thank you & in turn you're ignored. I rarely say this but I would have interacted with a robot instead of a human.

I made a purchase in-store, and the sales associate asked me 3 TIMES if I want to be a member. I said no all three times. "Are you sure?" YES I'm sure! "I just want to make my purchase." Even when he handed me the receipt he asked if I'm sure. It's very aggressive, predatory, and in poor taste. Forced and contrived, like he was about to twist my arm. It's very uncomfortable. NO IS A COMPLETE SENTENCE. They do not understand what NO means. Terrible training on management. I've attached screen shots from Google reviews from other customers that have experienced this obnoxious pushy behavior from their employees. It seems to be an ongoing issue to harass their customers.

Definitely expected better.
