This site is no different offering the same great pricing and inventory as the others that I've been to. The staff is super friendly, professional and knowledgeable as well. One of the things I really enjoy about big five is the incredible sales they put on on a very regular basis. I typically will purchase a pocket knife of some sort for my father for birthdays, Christmas, Father's Day and any other time that there's a gift in need. He's a very outdoorsy kind of guy and has a tendency to lose his pocket knives so it's good to know that I can get him a quality replacement at a very reasonable price pretty much any week of the year.

This is a cool store. It's in the "old mill District" of Bend, and when you see the building, you…read morecan see why they call it that. It's a great store, two stories, with lots of goods. Clothes, shoes, outdoor gear, hiking gear, freeze dried backpacking food, energy bars, if you are looking for something for the outdoors, you will find it here. I bought a bicycle sometime back at REI, and it did me very very well. I'm on a "road trip", so I didn't buy anything today. Prices are definitely on the higher end, but hey, you get what you pay for. If you are an REI member, you get offers, and discounts throughout the year, and a rebate in the form of a gift card based on the amount that you spend every year. Not a bad deal. I really enjoyed the store. Thanks.

Beware unmarked tariff price hikes when buying goods! The price you pay is NOT the price on the…read moreitem. I recently purchased a new climbing harness at this location. The rack was a little disorganized and I found a harness I liked and checked the price on the box: $94. When I left the store, I noticed I paid $104 for the item! I returned to the store and did a price check and was told by the clerk this was a tariff price increase and they never bothered to update the sticker on the item. They claimed they had the correct price on the shelf, not the item. (Due to the disorganization of the shelf, it was hard to tell which item was which and I went with the price on the box.) Please consider updating signage to warn of tariff price hikes or something to better manage customer expectations and avoid wasting time.

The stuff is definitely pricier than you'd find in a thrift store but usually much better quality from upper-end brands.
