Came back by this weekend to look at more comfy shoes and fell in love with some "rubber-duckies" as I call them, which are commonly known as goulashes.

Do not shop here. Absolutely horrendous customer service…read more I placed an order through the store because they didn't have my size in stock. I gave the employee my address, however, she failed to enter it correctly. When I received the notification to my email and saw that the address was missing my apartment number, I immediately contacted customer service, but they took a week and a half to respond to me. They then told me it was too late to fix my address (obviously, because they took so long to respond) This whole situation was their fault. Their employee failed to enter in my information correctly. I gave her the correct address but she did not enter it. They knew that the package wasn't going to be delivered, not because of my mistake but because of their employee's ineptitude. And instead of actually owning the fact that this was THEIR problem, they brushed me off. They could have fixed the problem (by maybe resending the shoes I ordered to the correct address, since the ones I ordered are being sent back to them) But they chose to not fix anything. I don't know why I thought I should support this company. What awful customer service. I am incredibly disappointed.

I had come to return a few items I had gotten on a previous sale (two tops buy one get one half off). Although these items were not on sale the day I had come into the store, I assumed I would be able to do an even exchange, since I was planning on purchasing two shirts (same price as the ones I had initially purchased ) just in different size. The cashier told me I would have to pay full price for both shirts since they were not on sale even though I had my receipt, email, and the tag on the clothes. First time I have ever had to PAY to do a return. I am throughly disappointed in the interaction I had today.

Orvis

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY AT THIS STORE…read more Huntsville Orvis Store! I have fished for over 45 years. I spend thousands of dollars on fishing each year. I have been in fishing clubs on and off for decades. Owned many boats, and currently fish at least once a week, year round. I've fished in multiple countries. Today, July 12, 2025. I visited the Ovris store in Huntsville for the first and last time. I was looking at fly rods and "the guy" working came up and asked did I need fly fishing lessons. I told him no and he said with a very condescending attitude, "those are Sage rods and you shouldn't be playing with them." First of all, I wasn't playing with it. I was inspecting it, just as I do all expensive fishing equipment I buy. Secondly, You don't speak to a grown man that way. I'm not a child! And, in the event there was a sign saying not to touch, it wasn't displayed well. I certainly didn't see one. I recommend shopping online and avoid this business. You'll probably save money anyway.

Lots of parking, near downtown in a charming old neighborhood. They have events every few weeks, including farmers markets, so keep an eye on their socials.

This was a lovely establishment but I will likely not return and this is why…read more I found four prints that were listed as "SPECIAL SET OF 4 / SPECIAL $40.00". Next to these two stickers was a third sticker that stated "Complete set of 4 $160". As I checked out at the front of the store, I wanted to make sure that the vendor was getting paid what they were owed. I didn't bargain down or argue for the $40, I made sure the cashier knew that there were two conflicting prices and that I didn't want to shortchange the vendor. Upon first asking if the $40 was the correct price, she stated loud and rudely, "IT SAYS SPECIAL FOR FOURTY DOLLARS." This was all she spoke while making direct and antagonizing eye contact. I acknowledged her words gently and kindly, that I indeed saw that sticker but also noticed that there was a conflicting price tag NEXT to the $40 one. The more expensive price was not crossed out or written over, they were listed next to each other. What I didn't say, but was hoping to clarify, was whether the store was okay being on the hook for the extra $120 if they were only going to charge me $40. The cashier simply repeated the same words, louder this time, and very condescending in her tone and manner, "IT SAYS SPECIAL FOR FOURTY DOLLARS" and pointed to the sticker to make her point even clearer. She said nothing else. I paid without further comment. As she bagged up the four prints, she included the additional document with the price stickers on it. I inquired if she wanted to keep the ADDITIONAL document with the price tags and booth label (for her records), making sure she didn't slip it in by mistake. Her tone, still very loud and now even more condescending, resounded as she said, "I WON'T BE REMOVING THOSE STICKERS BECAUSE THEY WILL DAMAGE THE PAPER." I wasn't asking her for a lesson on how adhesive works, I was simply trying to allow her the opportunity to keep the documentation for the vendor and the store to prove that she charged me for the discounted price. I've grown up in antique stores. My grandmother and mother both currently own/have owned their own antique establishments, so I'm familiar with the protocol. Maybe their protocol is different. My bad. I did not respond further and took the bag gently from her hands. It could have been the simplest and most pleasant interaction though. "Oh I see that there are two conflicting prices here. Let me call the vendor and verify that this one is correct." Or perhaps "We are told to take the lowest price listed on each product, so I can guarantee this is the correct price. Thanks for the concern though! I appreciate you looking out for the vendor!" Something, ANYTHING, more pleasant in terms of tone and word choice, would have been a better experience. I have also been in her shoes. I have worked in marketing and customer service for the past 20 years. I have worked a front desk, many, many times. I have been a cashier. I have been the rep who answered tweets at 11pm where a customer needed toilet paper sent to their hotel room. I know what it's like to deal with belligerent , arrogant people, with people who actively try to make your life a living hell because you work behind a desk, behind a screen, behind a uniform. That was NOT my intention, and that's what I think stung the most. In being kind, in being thorough, I was treated with contempt. Maybe she was having a bad day. Maybe I caught her in a moment where she had just dealt with someone difficult and assumed I was the same. There are a number of reasons why this transaction was so unpleasant. "Give her some grace!", the masses might cry. And I might agree with you. Normally, I would. But she was old enough to know better. The job she holds is not one that is difficult to execute, nor difficult to execute PROPERLY. Maybe I'm making a mountain out of a molehill. Maybe I shouldn't have let this seemingly small incident make such a huge impact. Or maybe, just maybe, this could've turned out so drastically different if this young woman had exercised the bare minimum and just been kind to me in return.

It also stated it had a "60 Day Warranty" and no where did it state repairs only NO REFUNDS. I am a single working mother with 2 sons who have blood diseases and after speaking with Al over the phone found a person to pay and have the set picked up. When the pickup person arrived he entered the store asked Mrs. Peters (Manager) for Al and she stated "right over there." The washer tub has numerous rust spots and clothes have been damaged. I called and spoke with Al and asked for a refund and he stated "no refunds only repairs" and I stated that was not stated in the ad and he agreed that it was not. He offered to come to my home and change out the tub and again I requested my $$ back and that the ad needed to be clear in reference to a "60 Day Warranty". He at which time stated "it was not a good time for him to speak and that he was hanging up." I called him back and asked again for a refund and he stated no again and claimed he almost ran into something talking on the phone with me. I told him I would not call again but rather have legal contact him. Next, I called and spoke with Elizabeth Peters (Manager) of Advent Thrift and explained to her my circumstances, she indicated that he was leasing space and that she had not seen the ad. She wanted to call him and offered to call me back. I received a return call from her and she stated "He offered to repair the tub so leave me out of it." I am competing paperwork and filing a small claims judgement against Al. To protest not having the terms honored is worth the $78 plus $20 to have a sheriff serve the judgement/paperwork. Always keep receipts and take a screenshot of ads...I am so glad I did!! On the receipt, he had another opportunity to write "no refunds only repairs"...but he did not. Advent Thrift need to require leaser's to have insurance and state clearly they are a separate entity. They may be liable also.

Of course, it's in a dying mall (sadly, this was "the" mall when I was in high school) so I wonder how long many of those stores will remain open for business.

They're owned by the same peeps from Pea In the Pod and their prices are slightly cheaper than Pea, although overall more expensive than what you'll find at Target. There's always plenty of stuff on sale and the sales staff are amazingly friendly and helpful. You'll likely even score some free stuff depending when you visit - I just got a few free pacis on my last trip. Why not five stars? Like I said, some of the prices seem a bit steep to me and the shop has an overall feel of disorganization, although I'm not slamming the product in any way because overall I'm super happy with the clothes I've purchased here. Definitely worth a stop if you're expecting and need to add some pieces to your wardrobe.
