    Ace ,  Seminole Blvd.

    I found this Ace a few years ago. It's fairly close to our home. They have neat stuff that's on shelves parts not common at the bigger hardware places. Prices are all over place they have good sales from time to time. The do chlorine for pools which is nice. The problem for me is the people that work there. Talking about chlorine you bring your two jugs in wait for employee to see how many you got before you toss them in a garbage can that they keep them in. They ring you up and then there's the were kinda busy ganna be a few min and we'll be over to load the new jugs. And that's the nice version. Sometimes it's here's your price and we'll be out. Smug is how most of everyone there talks to you. Sometimes they tell you they have them filled in bins out front in middle parking area. Or they have you move your vehicle to end so they can go behind fences to fill or get the filled ones over there. Parking lot isn't big but you are expected to move your vehicle here or there. There's a guy who seems to know a lot if you can get his attention. Don't expect what you need to be there you never know if they have it or if it's in stock. And what ever you do if your not sure go home and check and come back don't expect an easy return. I have seen horrible return experiences. I saw a lady trying to return a part that did not fit what ever it was for. Was still in box she didn't even open it. Apparently she bought it during hurricane scramble. At last min she left state. She got back a couple days later. I mean it was like 3 maybe 4 days when I was at the store watching her go through this return. They would not return it. They would not credit it. They wouldn't do anything but bitch at her with this smug attitude. Then they ganged up on her. The chick at cashier that's usually there the guy that's usually there. They teamed up and was like NO NO NO. Rude. All the lady did was kept her cool(Awsome for her I wouldn't have been calm). And explained she bought it before Hurricane to fix what ever. Realized it was wrong part, didn't open, didn't use. Can she just get credit so she could turn around and get the right part that was on the shelf. NO. She was like I tried to return it but you were closed. And I just got back yesterday and I can straight here to get this returned so I could get right part. NO. Then they start with we were here we were open see now your lying. She was like no I came back and this store was closed. She got big F.U. Soo disgusting watching theses employees gang up treating a customer like that. What if they walked in to Home depot and was like this part doesn't fit I want my money back and was told no. These idiots would pitch a fit. This lady spoke clear was patient started to get aggravated but kept her cool. Shame on this business. They have poor people skills poor judgement. I was sooo disgusted watching all this. Just because of this I won't go waste my time there. Even if it's on sale there's other Aces these people are typical for the area unfortunately. And their store hours are werd. Their never open late. By 6 their closed on weekend I think earlier. You would think you'd keep your store open to 8 ish. I have purchased paint here. It's a pain to get them to help you and stay helping you they tend to wonder away to help others which is fine multi task but please don't get attitude when I remind you Hello need you to finish with me! The paint is watery seems thin had to put few coats with theirs. And at current paint prices which are rediculous it's not worth getting paint there. You can find slightly cheaper prices with some stuff but not everything. And you never know if stuff on shelf's and floor are good with all parts it's suppose to come with because a lot is open boxes. But they have some neat parts and pieces. Handles for cabinets. Different stuff. They don't do the ace rewards card so just grab flyier. Watch sales they tend to repeat month to month. Just not worth the the stress you have to go through if you have an issue. I've gotten annoyed a few times other times their fine. If it's busy just leave unless they know you you'll have to wait and fight for help. I hate Home Depot and Lowe's so when I see a smaller store I try it. However with bigger stores at least you can return your items with pretty much(not everything but close)no questions asked with receipt.

    I will go out of my way to shop there now, I want them to succeed in a world where big box stores engulf the little guys.

    I needed a key made as a duplicate for a generator. It was not a standard key. They took the time…read moreto try to duplicate it and used three of their blanks. I believe it was the owner who said it might not work so they did not want to charge me. He said if it worked just come back another day and pay for it. After they made the key, he then said don't even worry about coming back. It turned out the time he took to make the key and it worked. They went above and beyond. It's rarely you see such A level of service nowadays. It truly reminded me of back in the 70s When customer service meant something. I highly recommend this Ace Hardware store.

    I walked in today to return some items and immediately a short older woman approached me and barked…read morein my face that I was not going to be allowed to return the items. They were gas cans (unused and still locked) and she told me that they were considered hurricane items and they were not taking any of those And then she snatched my receipt out of my hand and told me they aren't returnable anyway because they were from a different store and the stores are separate entities. While I understand both of her points, her rudeness was absolutely unnecessary and unappreciated. this extremely rude level of customer service has soured us for using this store and our family will no longer be shopping here. Perhaps this should not be the employee that you station at the front of the store - she makes for a very bad first impression.
