    Now an Ace Hardware after TrueValue's Corp. bankruptcy…read more When a TrueValue, I tried to give them business before going to Ace in Canon, despite a smaller inventory. I prefer businesses local business to my Penrose home. I have spent much since locating to Penrose 5 years ago. With the Ace transition, I had hopes to do more spending here. However, not honoring a $5 Bday and $5 Ace rewards cards because it was based on Canon purchases just cost the store thousands in purchases from me. I could and would have been willing to change my home store, but was never given the option. Frankly, the travel time is so close, Ill just go to Knecht Ace in Canon. Apparently, customer loyalty means nothing. Folks at Knecht have always been nice to me, so they will get the bixlz as I continue my house remodel.... a kitchen, bathroom, and a shed rebuild. Canon can supply the plumbing, screws, nails, lumber, fixtures, tools, blades, bits, hoses, wiring, etc. Treasure that $10 saved. Invest it wisely!

    I stopped by this Florence location and was immediately confronted, by who I assumed was the…read moremanager or owner. I told him that I was looking for Rich who is a longtime store employee. I am a veteran and retired from Federal prisons, and I am a black man. I think since the young man did not know me or remember me as a customer, he profiled me, it still happens. The store is not that large, anyone can be seen from the front counters, what did he think? I was going to sneak something into my pockets. I found Rich and purchased a 75.00 12 inch, which is probably more than it should have cost, the price of doing business in American "True Value".

    We hired Downtown Electric to retrofit twelve sub panels and replace one sub panel in an apartment…read morebuilding. Twelve of them were bid at $750 each. The one new panel was bid at $1800 because it had more circuit breakers requiring a larger panel. Upon completion of the work I noticed the one additional panel was not replaced as per the estimate, but instead retrofitted exactly like the other twelve with the addition of two spare,(not in use) circuit breakers. When I called to ask the owner Joey Bloomquist about it he attempted to justify,(or confuse me) with some excuse about how he figured out a way to make it work, and then agreed to adjust the estimate and subtract $800, (still $250 higher than the other panels) but only because he got called out, not because it was the right thing to do. If I hadn't said anything he would have let us pay the full $1800 for it. My focus is still on the estimate. The $500 permit charge sounds way too high. I looked it up online which was dated three days after the work was completed and learned it was only $183. (I'm thinking this guy really has some nerve. First the $1050 overcharge and now another $317!) I'm feeling personally insulted now. Keep in mind, the estimate says,"REIMBURSE PERMIT CHARGE... $500." Maybe this is worded too vaguely and should be clarified because this sounds like he's claiming he paid Regional $500 for the permit which is obviously not true. I called to ask him why he overcharged $317 and I finally get a call back with the hidden charges explanation. "I had to go to the regional office"..." I had to draw pictures"... "I had to discuss the job"... "I had to do load calculations"..."I usually charge $1000 for this,"(he wouldn't have gotten the work). None of the other contractors estimates showed any of these charges so it just sounded like more BS. His estimate was within range of the other two closest bids. The only reason he got the work is because of the cleaner retrofit vs the other bids which were for new panels. It feels like Mr. Bloomquist saw me as an easy pushover he could squeeze some extra money out of and I wouldn't even know it. Maybe it wasn't just me, maybe this is a common business practice with this company. I never expected so much shade from a company whose profession is lighting.You would think that doing $10,000 worth of business with him would earn a little more gratitude than disrespect.
