Dishonest practices. Careful who views your trade. Clerk looked up item then made offer, and we…read moreagreed on a price. Clerk 2 comes along to check me out and apparently disagrees with price. Clerk 1 goes in back to make call and comes out and says no deal at all, even though we had an agreement. Item was inspected looked up online and offer made. Pretty shady business practices if not outright incompetence. I left choosing not to argue. Won't be back If you are selling something and they make an offer, make them write it down, it might keep them honest.

I called Defender Customer Service. They tracked down my participation and told me the code, then took down the order - a Jabsco marine toilet - over the phone, which was delivered a few days later.

I've shopped with Defender for many years, and have always been satisfied with the products, the…read moreprice, and the service. That being said, I have found the newer website experience is lacking. The point that comes to mind immediately is the delay when going from page to page created b y the "cloud flare security check". Seriously? What possible danger could there be when moving from "electronics" to "Elecrtonics/navigation" or some such selection? Seriously though,, Defender hits all the high points in this industry.

I received absolutely no message either through the app, text or phone call. Thousands of dollars of items for them to keep and sell at new prices ( funny how when pawned its all worthless junk not worth anything but when they steal it from you suddenly its worth top dollar) beyond disgusted with this place. Apparently a history of buying everything back out or paying for monthly means nothing.

I'm not one of the "boys" and it shows I haven't been here in years, but it's a bummer that they don't offer ladies shoot free on Tuesday any longer. We didn't realize we had to grab a number to be waited on because it's been so long. Walked around the store and stood by the counter for a good 15 minutes before we asked someone how to purchase a gun. Told us what we needed to do but didn't seem like it was worth the wait. The prices are a lot little higher compared to other gun stores I've been to. Not sure if I'll come back. They have a wide range of guns to choose from
