I'd like to share a recent very positive shopping experience I had at the Big 5 store in Wichita Falls, Texas.
I live in the D/FW area, where we don't have Big 5 stores. Last weekend, though, I was in Wichita Falls. While there, I found the Big 5 store and decided to drop in. For some time, I've been in the market for a Marlin 1894C rifle, and I'd read here that Big 5 carries them and often has them on sale. (For whatever reason, 1894C rifles are virtually unobtainable in D/FW.)
At the Big 5 store, I was very pleasantly surprised to find the rifle, and indeed, it was on sale, for $299.
That was nice enough--but what really made an impression on me was the quality of service.
The salesman who helped me, Mark, was not only helpful, he actually knew the entire procedure, and very quickly and efficiently completed the sale.
After many experiences with under-educated, indifferent-at-best sales staff at other chains, I was incredibly impressed with the service I received at Big 5.
If there are any guys in DFW who are looking for a rifle, the trip to Wichita Falls would be worth it.
