Adventure Sports

[sagacity]

They still seem to have issues with price comparing. They were the first shop I visited since moving to the area. Once we brought up the prices of stuff we saw on the internet, they became very off-standish, and seemed like they didn't want us to try on their gear. In all honesty, the thought never even occurred me to use the shop for sizing to buy something online. I will pay more at a local shop - but only within reason. Its worth it to me to buy something locally, since if I have issues, I can take to the shop to make it right. We haven't been back to Adventure Sports since then.

I purchased most of my initial gear online, and used through eBay to get me started. Once I'm ready to upgrade to new gear that *I* want (i.e. not decided on b/c it was *the* cheapest one), I will likely buy it from a local shop - and the shop I will go to is one that has treated me well so far, even though I've only bought a few little things here and there.
