  • gettin screwed it sucks

    stopped in to a little shop on 249 past willowbrook. needed feeders. was told 20 for a dollar. asked for $5 bucks worth. rec'd 50 feeders. ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu uuuuuuuuuuuuuuu not worth the *****ing, i'm never going back.

    This place used to be awesome, but the owner sold to some idiot. All the tanks are filthy, prices are ok, but its always a gamble.

    I bouth a new tank there years back and ended up bug bombing the house to kill the roaches.

    word to you retailers

    if i'm buying 100 feeders or more a pop. every friday. I got some big fish and i'll be back. screw me and i'll never be back.

    Did you not notice the difference before leaving the store ? I ask because there's a big (visual) difference between 50 feeders in a bag and 100 feeders in a bag . Also , did you return to the store or give the store a call ? It could have been just an honest mistake . I find it hard to believe that a store would intentionally try to cheat you over $2.50 .

      Yeah... feeders are more a courtesy rather than a profit machine. I'd say it was a mistake, but I don't know anything about this place, so I can't be sure.

        thanks for the responses.

        Man I sound whinny. Normally I would have corrected him, it was a small bag. I was tired and honestly did'nt give a crap by that point. Realise they are not profit generators, but seriously take pride in your store dude. just venting.

          this store used to be good when Kevin owned it, but then he sold it to his uncle who doesnt give a crap about the shop. Truly Sorry, I used to stop all the time and chat with Kevin, nice guy and had awesome prices, once you got to know him, he'd give great discounts.

                      Spoken like a true smart a$$
                      My advice, find a new store. I know its just feeders and probably an honest mistake but money is money now a days.

                              It's on the north/east corner. 1/2 the way down in a strip center. I would not bother calling them. Did you ever see a episode of Sienfeld with the soup nazi? It's kind of like that.
