    Do not buy performance ski boots at Bob's Sports Chalet…read more I recently bought a pair of Salomon S/Pro Alpha 130 ski boots. After my purchase I brought the ski boots home and put in my footbeds only to find that the ski boots caused my legs to bow when I flexed them. I understand that each skier's anatomy is different and their experience in a particular ski boot will vary. However, Bob's does not carry an extensive line of performance ski boot alternatives and I asked for a refund. I received a refund but was charged a 10% fee. The ski boots were never used and were returned in 1 week after purchase. I was mindful of the salesperson's time when I tried on the ski boots in the store and I made a good faith effort to test the ski boots with my footbeds at home. Given the fee that I was charged, I do not believe that Bob's Sports Chalet gave me the same courtesy.

    Bob's Sport Chalet, STAY AWAY, don't do business with this creepy owner…read more I ordered two very expensive items and they never arrived. I contacted customer service and the same person, a man always answers the phone. I'm assuming it's the owner. He told me he would check on the order and get back to me. He never got back to me. Weeks went by and finally I contacted my credit card company and filed a dispute. I just happened to be at the post office picking up another package and when they went back to get it, when they came back out the postal worker said "oh do you know you have another package here for you?" The package from Bob's Sport Chalet had been sitting at the post office for weeks. The man in Customer Service never followed up on the package and it's whereabouts. I immediately contacted customer service at Bob's Sport Chalet and was treated extremely rude and yelled at by the same man that I spoke to in the beginning. (The Owner). Bob's Sports Chalet is owned and managed by Bill and Belinda Gonsalves of Bristol CT. The success of the business is by emphasizing the quality of service. I can't believe they have the nerve to put this in their ads in on their website. He very specifically said he would not give me a refund and they don't deal with people who file a dispute. He hung up the phone. I called back numerous times only to be hung up on again and be cursed out. He's a despicable man and a bully! I'm out almost $500, no fault of my own. The owner didn't care that the items were brand new packages and were sitting at the post office and it was not my fault that they were never delivered. I had every right to file a dispute. This is a horrible business and as you can see if you read the other yelp reviews, it's happened to many others. Please stay as far away from this company as possible, if you value your money and have any Integrity. This company doesn't care about their customers at all!

    Chuck & Eddies Used Auto Parts - I asked for this 2008 Toyota tundra wheel

    Terrible customer service from start to finish. I asked for the correct part for my car, and the…read moreemployee gave me the wrong one. When I came back to return it, he refused to help because I didn't have the original paper receipt. I showed him a photo of the receipt and asked him to look up the purchase in the system since it was bought at this store, but he wouldn't even try. I also showed him that the part they sold me did not fit my car, but he just kept saying, "There's nothing we can do." There was no effort to fix the mistake, no exchange, and not even a store credit, even though the error was theirs. Because of this, I ended up losing nearly $300 and had to buy the correct part somewhere else. I've never experienced such poor customer service. I will not be returning, and I would not recommend this store to anyone

    If you've dealt with the "Used Auto Parts" businesses, then you know how challenging it can be as…read moremost of the "customer service" reps don't give the best service or have the best attitude. In my experiences most of them act as if they've huffed too many petrol fumes and someone peed in their morning coffee. Needless to say, overall not a pleasant experience. With that said, there's always an exception to the rule, and the exception is William Vermette. I have been doing business with Chuck & Eddie's for a while now and I was lucky enough to get William on my first contact with C&E. He has helped me numerous times and is always pleasant, professional, courteous, considerate, and will go the extra mile to make sure your needs are taken care of. Do yourself a favor and ask for him at Plantsville, CT store and avoid the other curmudgeons behind the counter as he will make your transaction smooth and pleasant.
