I will never buy lumber anywhere else. I showed up with plans and measurements, and i had determined what I thought was the appropriate amount of lumber. After sitting down and reviewing my plans with me, they helped me make some adjustments and wound up saving me a nice chunk of change. They also delivered the lumber and hardware to my house as well as offering some advice on how to best build out my project. I will be using them again read more

Every time I go there everyone is knowledgeable and friendly. You can find things here that you can't find at Home Depot or Lowe's. The quality is the best. Mikey is one of my favorite employees read more

Very friendly, helpful. I had a doorknob at my home which needed repair. The staff at the store, including Mr. Lennie, talked me through on the phone how to dismantle it and bring it in. Otherwise I would have had to hired a carpenter or locksmith. What a pleasure to have such an experience. No wonder the store is so successful. read more

Poole Lumber has been around for many, many years. It also used to have great, friendly small town customer service many, many years ago, but that is a thing if the past. When you walk in the door now, you are not even glanced at or acknowledged. The people that work at the desk do not look up from their cell phones. I wandered around the store for 10 minutes trying to see if I could find what I needed before going to ask for help. The girl at the desk was in a complete daze. The young guy, barely glanced up from his cell phone long enough to point me in the general direction of what I was looking for. I finally had to call my husband and was on the phone with him when an employee walked up that I hadn't seen before (his name was Lenny) and helped me. He was the only helpful person that I encountered. Had it not been for him and the fact that I needed the item right then, I would have walked out. There was not another customer in the store, so they were not busy at all. Very disappointing that they are just like every fast food joint in town that hires people with absolutely no work ethic and sits on their cell phones all day long..... read more

Best Buy

I live in Oklahoma, in the Tuskahoma area, and this computer is for my 84-year-old grandmother…read more During a holiday visit and extended work stay, I initially brought her PC to Geek Squad on December 19, 2025 for service. When I was able to return on January 23, I was informed that the workmanship warranty had expired and that I would need to repurchase the service. This did not seem appropriate, considering the issue had not been resolved properly the first time. When I returned to pick up the PC, I specifically asked that it be powered on so I could verify that a fresh operating system had been installed, as discussed. Unfortunately, the computer does not have a completed operating system installation or system restore. As it stands, we are in a worse position than when we first brought it in. I was also told that Best Buy's service line is not connected to Geek Squad, and that because Best Buy refunded my purchase amount during the second visit, this automatically triggered a "stop work" decision. This was never clearly explained beforehand. At this point, I simply want resolution. If the store cannot ship the PC, I am requesting that a carrier be arranged to pick it up from the store. I currently have four open case numbers and have not received a single call or email with a proposed resolution. This situation has been exhausting and disappointing, especially given that this computer is for my elderly grandmother. I am simply asking for accountability and a clear path forward.

I went in to utilize geek squad coverage on something I bought from their website after a year. The…read moredevice had a defect that was unacceptable. I was met by a woman named Amy and an African American male. They were both rude and disrespectful for the duration of my visit. I was quickly shrugged off and it seemed they did not want to help me. I was polite for the duration and gave no word or action that warranted my treatment. I was ultimately told that I could not replace my device due to a third party seller situation set up on their new market place system. This was explained to me by Gerard, who was the only reasonable person I spoke to in my visit. The biggest issue I have is the fact that they still sell the device on their site and even offer geek squad protection (which I originally got) but would not replace it due to the third party thing. Why offer geek squad stuff if you don't want to actually perform it? I was refunded the money I paid in lue of the replacement/repair from geek squad. Overall, I had a bad taste in my mouth. Gerard was nice and respectful, but the others were extremely rude. They didn't seem like they wanted to help anyone or explain anything. This makes me not want to go back.

I show up to pick up my game and was told by the single employee in the store that just because it is released on a particular day does not mean that it is available to me on that day. That was a polite way of telling me that they do not have it in stock and cannot honor the receipt that was given to me. Why offer the opportunity to pre-order a game that you will not have in stock on the day that you claim you will have it in stock? Not that it matters to them, but they just lost a customer. I hope this helps someone else trying to pre-order a game. Don't fall for it.

French Market

The French Market is one of those main stages of New Orleans culture. It's one of those…read moreestablishments that has been around forever. From the moment you walk into this space, what you are confronted with is tons of all kinds of great and unique everything. Much of it is not only sold by local artisans, but made by them, as well. French market is predominantly an open air location. What you will find here are small shops that each offer a very unique collection of items that are very specific to their own shop. The items that are sold here span the gambit from jewelry, to artworks, to ethnic pieces that represent the culture from where the shop owner comes from. There is really a lot of everything at the French Market. Meaning, this is a great place to get that really unique gift that you wanna get for that special someone or to find that unique piece of whatever that you will personally use. As there are numerous shops here, each business provides a unique buying experience. Each one represents what they offer, and do it from their own perspective. From this, you'll find some shop merchants that are super friendly, very cordial, and more than willing to make deals with you. Others, not so much. But, that's what makes this location truly interesting. All the personalities that make up this shopping establishment. More than simply a place to shop for gifts, artworks, souvenirs, and the like, French Market also offers some great food stalls. So, if you need a snack, drink, or even a full meal, you can find it here. As this is open air, in the summer, it can get kinda hot inside this establishment. This is not bad or good, this is just something to keep in mind. This is the same during the winter months. You can't get kind of cold in there. But, at least from my perspective, that's a little bit easier to deal with. You just have to wear a jacket. Overall, this is one of the main stays of NOLA. It's truly a must see location. And, for people who know the city well, this is a place to go to when you want to find that truly unique item. Truly, you never know what you'll find.

Lately I have found that the two ladies who work there are less than helpful or friendly. They act like you are bothering them. Also, Redoux always did free wrapping for you in a white bag with some tissue paper, nothing fancy. Now they charge 2.50 per gift. I totally understand that with the cost of supplies. I asked the lady with gray hair at the register if I could at least get the Redoux sticker to put on my own white gift bag and she told me it would be 2.50 for the small sticker. I explained I liked for the person to know that the store is wonderful so it might encourage them to shop there. I wasn't looking for a freebie but a way to advertise their business. Oh well, I will continue to shop there to support local, but the customer service could use some improvement.
