    I ordered what was to me an expensive reel for a fishing trip I have booked…read more For some reason they returned the reel to the sender and I never received it. I have been trying to get ahold of someone to figure out what happened for 3 days and no one has responded. At this point I want to cancel the order and get a refund and buy it form someone who might understand customer service.

    Steve the owner of Tuppins listed a 200 HP Yamaha SHO with a manufacture year of 2021. They made me…read morethink it would be cheap to install them charged me 8,000.00 ! I complained . He reduced the price to 5,000.00 then stopped all work o the boat. I picked it up with screws, dirt, oil, old parts all left in the boat. Oil spills grease stains. Wires were cut and all my switches were not working and my trolling motor wires are missing ! Tulpins said they went through the entire engine and charged the oil and filters ect... when I opened the cowling after a month of using it the oil filter has a date of 1/13/2023 !!! Hasn't been changed in 2 years! It gets worse. I asked repeatedly to send me the warrantee info. They never would because THE ENGINE IS A 2015 NOT a 2021 like they sold it as ! i bought this engine about 4 months ago and Tuppins has ignored me! The boats electrical system is a mess and I just had the entire boat rewired. It was working perfectly ! Tuppins has gone down hill since these irresponsible deceitful business practices. Its horrible to take advantage and lie to your customers! I have plenty of pictures and will file a lawsuit. Also as a Yamaha dealer we expect honesty and professionalism. My boat is a mess ! They purposely left the year of the engine off the sales receit but checked that there is a factory warranty still in effect so I would BELEIVE it ! TUPPINS HAS GONE ROUGE AND THEIR DECEPTIVE BUSINESS PRACTICES HAVE HURT HOW MANY UNAWARE CUSTOMERS ?? i Put a bad review on google and somehow they were able to take my bad review and rewrite it as a good review !!! How ? They cover their tracks so don't BELEIVE all The good reviews.

I brought my valid government-issued photo ID along with my current vehicle registration showing my updated physical address. Bass Pro's own pickup instructions say that if the address on your photo ID does not match your current residential address, you may be required to provide a second form of government-issued documentation with your current physical address, such as a vehicle registration, voter ID card, concealed carry permit, hunting license, etc. That is exactly what I brought. My driver's license was my photo ID, and my vehicle registration was the supplemental proof of current address. However, the employee/manager still turned me away and acted like I was trying to use the registration as a photo ID, which was not the case. To make it even more frustrating, I contacted several other local firearm shops afterward, and they all said that a valid driver's license plus current vehicle registration is acceptable for this situation. So it appears this was either a misunderstanding by the store or an overly restrictive store decision that was not clearly explained. I understand firearm sales require strict compliance, and I respect that. But customers should not be turned away when they bring the exact type of documentation Bass Pro's own instructions say may be used. The process was confusing, poorly handled, and wasted my time. Very disappointing experience.

    Me and my family have lived in buckhead and have been fishing Lake Okeechobee for 30+ years. I Was…read morehoping it wouldn't come to this but after allowing several attempts to make this right and still nothing has been done I feel it only necessary to warn others before they feel taken advantage of as well. First and foremost Id like to say I have always been a diehard Fastbreak customer. I am there weekly, i fish weekly and have lived in Okeechobee all my life. I have purchased many jigs, rods, bait and their gas is all I put in my boat and truck, their ice is all I put on my fish. So this is not an attack on Fastbreak but rather a call for action and responsibility of a knowingly faulty product they promote. Everything I have said on this review has been said to the store in person as well as Glenn Harris and nothing has been done. I first purchased Unique crappie jigs by Glenn from Garrard's tackle shop as I was there for propane. I then found out Fastbreak carried them. I didn't have many issues with this jig at first...paint cracking and chipping and NOT just after multiple fish being caught but I liked the body and kept hearing good things so figured I would just buy more and as the paint came off I'd swap them out. At the end of November I had multiple hooks break or straighten to the point when bent back they would break which for me is understandable that you bend something enough it will break. Me and three of my neighbor went out in December and two of them were also using Glenn's crappie jigs and said they too had the same issue one with the paint and second with the hook not being of good quality and several that have broke. That same day one of my neighbors had one of the bodies partially unravel to where the tail came completely off the jig and into the water. We went in to Fastbreak that afternoon and told this to 2 employees at the counter and showed them the pictures of the unraveled jig. They both agreed that they have had some complaints about the quality of the hook and they had told Glenn about it as well. It just so happens the following day Glenn was at Fastbreak delivering jigs while I was getting gas and I spoke to him in the parking lot. Super nice guy, said he was aware of the problem,  that he had ordered new hooks and should have them that next week. I thought great, problem solved. Beginning of January I asked an employee at Fastbreak if they had gotten any of Glenn's jigs in with the new hooks yet and he said he didn't know what I was talking about but again said that they have made Glenn aware of the hook issue. I checked the few jigs that were there and surprise surprise they were all the same old cheap hooks. I really wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt because all I keep reading is the success of these jigs and I really did like some of the color combos. That day I bought a couple more new colors at the advice of a fishing guide that was in there that same day. He said he guides out of Fastbreak and because that's their biggest selling jig he promotes it to help them out. I mentioned to him the issues I had had and he agreed he had a couple like that as well but said "5 times out of 10 he doesn't have any issues". My exact words to him were 9 times out of 10? thinking I didn't hear correctly and he laughed and said 5 times out of 10. Seriously? With this my radar really went up and I started to question how and why this store would be promoting these jigs. A store that I and my fellow buckhead community use almost daily. People come here from all over to crappie fish this lake and this is the best we can do, this is the quality these guides and the 2 most prevalent tackles shops in this town are selling and pushing on people? So at this point I have brought my concerns/ complaints several times to the store and from what the Fastbreak employees have said multiple other customers have done the same as well. I've brought my concerns to Glenn himself who said he was aware and changing the hook and then as of yesterday they're still the same and yet the store is still promoting them not only themselves but through the people that frequent the store and guide out of the store just to not lose money? This is where I take issue. I've always been a Fastbreak fan but until they can recognize the garbage they're selling and not be so worried about the money they're making and Until Glenn can make good on his promise of making a better quality product I will voice my opinion to anyone that will listen about the quality of this jig and how Fastbreak knowingly promotes such an inferior product. I really am disappointed that this store would allow this to continue as I've always thought more of them and the owners but even more so that Glenn would say he's changing the hooks BECAUSE OF THE COMPLAINTS  and has yet to even do so makes us all that have voiced our opinions look stupid. I know this was a long review and I apologize but if I can keep one person from being ripped off like m

Now ladies, most men hook us up with diamonds, flowers, chocolate and/or dinner on this special day so when I saw the store advertisement I jumped up and immediately messaged Evan who is one of the owners about a certain firearm my husband has wanted. It was a Ruger 57 FDE with red dot. Evan messaged me back immediately stating he did not have the specific one my husband wanted but he had a FN 5.7 in FDE . I was assured the FN 5.7 was the top of the line of the firearm my husband wanted I showed up and Evan and his team were quick to help me with the paperwork, and when I mentioned the red dot they wasted no time to install a Halosun X2 series dot with a circle. Needless to say my husband was ecstatic with his Valentine's Day Gift. They used to be online prior to having the brick and mortar location. They are still getting stuff in and was ordering more items while I was there. If they do not have it, they will get it for you. My husband has a WWII era bayonet with a rifle and is having a hard time finding ammo for something so old and Evan mentioned he would keep his eyes open for us and if he sees it will get it. Thank you South Florida Armory for all your help. I will surely be back
