No matter how busy the shop is they always take care of each and every customer and treat them as if they are number one. Tell me one place that does that in today's world. Alan and his staff are THE BEST!!! Rinkside is where EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE should shop for all their hockey and figure skating needs. It is by far the most professional and well stocked pro shop. If they don't have it for some crazy reason they will get it as fast as they can with a smile!!!! PERFECT all the way around!!!

I had lined up the players, paid the fees and assessed the collective softball equipment each of us…read moreowned. We were nearly ready to be a part of the teacher softball league. The only thing missing was a bat. I would hate to be the team that runs to the other dugout and asks to borrow their bats (is that even a thing? Probably goes against some unspoken softball rule right?). Shelling out a hundred plus dollars for a brand new bat was not in the cards, so I decided to give Play It Again Sports a whirl. My first impression, as I entered the shop, is that they pack a lot of sports equipment into a little space. They had at least a tiny section that deals with most of the popular Florida sports. I found the bats pretty easily (they were hanging up slightly above eye level). I moved passed the t-ball and junior boys bats, left the wooden ones behind and approached the softball rack. A lot of the bats were marked fast pitch and weren't meant for the league we were joining. I saw no rhyme or reason for the way the softball bats were arranged so I asked the man at the register if they had any specific bats for slow pitch. He came over and moved a couple bats saying "these were organized with this hanging rack being all slow pitch bats but sometimes they get mixed up." He pointed out the five or six bats that were meant for slow pitch softball. He then went a step further and recommended two of them. I checked out the prices. Good God! A hundred plus dollars for a used softball bat that was not speckled in gold? Uh, no thank you. He also suggested that they had a new line of softball bats that were hanging behind the register. These bats would run about a hundred dollars for a slow pitch bat. I thanked him for his time and went back to the rack to find something closer to my budget. I saw a twenty four dollar bat that had my name written all over it (well, technically it said Easton but my parents did tell me that they considered naming me that when I was born so it had my backup name all over it). Since I would be responsible for supplying the softballs and the bat, I figured a bag was necessary so I could easily transport things from one place to another. I found a really cheap baseball bag, we're talking fourteen dollars, and purchased that. This Play It Again Sports had exactly what I needed and the man behind the counter offered some advice when I needed a little help. When it comes time to start my teacher tennis/bowling/football/soccer team, I know exactly where to go to get all my equipment.

My first encounter with Play it again sports was in the mid 1990s . I bought a pair of roller…read moreblades. It was in Miami, Florida. I had great experiences there. So imagine my delight when I found out there was one down the street from my job. I was looking for weights, dumbells to be specific. I didn't want to pay full price. I remembered that PIAS had dumbbells back in the day. I called and a nice gentleman, Mike, told me they were open and they had weights. I came in around 6:30pm. They were assisting another customer so I waited patiently with my mask on. More about that later. I inquired why one set of dumbbells were more than others(not weight related). Mike said the insulated black weights are commercial grade and the iron ones are not. The iron weights are at or around $1.45 a pound and the commercials grade is $2.00 a pound. Great information and it allowed me to make an informed decision. I bought a pair of 15# & 25#. There on signs on the weights that clearly show the prices. After Mike rang up the sale, as a courtesy he carted the product to my SUV and put them in the way back. The reason I didn't give them 5 stars is because they weren't wearing masks and didn't require masks. They did have a sign outside saying they clean thoroughly and recommended we practice safe distancing. Other than that they have great selections for baseball, cleats. Golf and workout equipment. I will be back. You can sell your unused sports equipment to them. Just call ahead first before you lug it out of storage.

"yeah our football cleets only sell for 20.00" ... the football cleets in the store were dirty and dingy, these still had stickers on them and everything, and were practically new, by then, I was just embarrassed l told him "fine ok whatever" so then he handed me 6.00 not even 8.00....
