I went on July 3rd around 1 pm so parking was horrendous. I parked near Barnes & Nobles and took the escalator down to the store. Before I entered the store I checked my order on my phone and noticed I got the wrong size. I walked in and didn't see a sign for online pick-up orders so just went to a register with a cashier. I walked up to them (there was young employee and an older employee having a conversation at the register) and let them know I was there to pick up an online order and the guy at the register looked up my order. As he was doing that, I informed him that I would need to exchange it for a large/extra large and he said sure. He went to grab my online order from the wall, came back and handed it to me and said have a good day and began busying himself with something else. I stood there for a few seconds and asked him if he could please let me know where these life jackets were located because I need to exchange it for a bigger size (second time letting him know this). He then said it was in the back corner and pointed to the back corner. Where it fell short for me is that I let him know I would need to exchange it and either it didn't clock for him to fulfill my request by going and getting the larger size and bringing it back to the register OR he straight up ignored my request and didn't want to go get it. I'm going to say he straight up ignored my request and didn't want to go get it. At that point, I would rather just pick my online order up from a Amazon locker type contraption, go to the back and get the correct sized life jacket, then exchange it and self-checkout myself. I'm against getting rid of humans for jobs, but if the in-person experience is worse than dealing with a computer screen, then I would rather deal with the computer screen. Also, I realize this is a store that highers young people, but it's a branding issue if you don't have pride in training your employees to go above and beyond. In this case, it would have been taking a few extra steps to go get the life jacket size I needed, bringing it back to the register and completing an exchange. Not a crazy ask in my opinion, and it's a standard customer service request and it was not busy at all during this time. It could've been better and for the reason of parking being a little more stressful than other locations and poor customer service, I'd suggest going to another Dick's Sporting Goods or Big 5.

And usually to me and my puppy every time we come to the store, AND the parking lot is huge! Never have an issue. I appreciate how large this space is and everything is neatly organized and you know where to find all the items for various activities, sports and weather! Tons of brands and selections. I especially appreciate the sports basementeees discounts especially on yoga clothes or other athleisure wear. I also really like that if for some reason something isn't working out with the item I purchase, I know I can bring it back in (within reason and appropriate timeframe!). The value of items here are top notch and I'm always happy to support this retailer. So glad to have one in Orange County! Definitely a great place to look for high quality, durable and affordable clothing and accessories - perfect for any adventure!

We've been here so many times that I finally had to leave a review--especially for Jesus (pronounced just like the name in the Bible). This place is HUGE! They have everything--bikes, sports apparel, camping gear, rentals, and more. Plenty of parking, conveniently located right off the 405, they price match, and the membership is actually worth asking about. I'm usually not a membership person, but we come here so often that it pays for itself. Jesus is amazing. We brought in my son's Co-op DRT 3.3 for what we thought would be "just brakes." It turned into new brake pads, a chain, spoke alignment, shock adjustment...you know, the full bike spa treatment. (Part of it was his---well...thanks to my son's curiosity and love of "tinkering.) Even though we picked up the bike right at closing time, Jesus never rushed us. He patiently explained every repair, answered all of our questions, and even taught my 14-year-old how to better maintain his bike. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does and enjoys encouraging young riders. Fast turnaround, fair prices, great service, and no long waits like we've experienced elsewhere. We're customers for life. Thanks, Jesus and the Sports Basement team, for keeping both my son--and his bike--on the trails!
