fisherrw Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 lol @ this academy sale item Daiwa Steez® EX 100XS Hyper Speed Baitcast Reel Right-handed $599.98 was: $599.99 very funny 1 Quote
rawjuice Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 I was looking at a rack of red labels- the same one the manager said were all priced incorrectly. He rolled the display off the show floor and into the back warehouse right in front of me as I was grabbing for stuff! I wanted two more rolls of Trilene braid and he said it would not ring up for the red tag price of $5.97 per roll. I had to put more than half of the items I grabbed back. I was not going to pay $17.97 for that braid, not when I can get it cheaper on ebay. At this point after finding out Dick's had the items I wanted only online and none in the store, I have no reason to go back there. Gander Mountain is another story. They have nice clearance bins all over the place. Dick's did not. I had even called Dick's on like Friday or Saturday and was told the sale started on Sunday, and today is only Thursday. If the sale was over, it sure was a short one! Sale was over 31, so sunday no sale, they should have taken care of those red tags right away but you can't bash a store because they are doing what any normal store would do if they forgot to remove clearance pricing. I've ran businesses and understand those situations. Quote
FloridaFishinFool Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Sale was over 31, so sunday no sale, they should have taken care of those red tags right away but you can't bash a store because they are doing what any normal store would do if they forgot to remove clearance pricing. I've ran businesses and understand those situations. I'm not trying to bash them, but when a store has a clearance rack with red tags clearly marking the price still on the showroom floor and I am in the store filling up my basket with items very clearly marked, one would think the store should be obligated to honor those in my face prices rather than tell me ooooops sorry, all those prices are now wrong and literally take the items away from a customer right then and there and roll the display off the show floor right in front of me. The least the manager could have done was honor those prices, but he would not budge, and because of that I am not inclined to return to their store especially after finding out the products I wanted to see were only available online and for higher prices than I can get elsewhere. Dick's has turned me away for two reasons today and I'm not trying to bash them, only state what happened and my displeasure with it. Quote
rawjuice Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Unfortunately for us they are not obligated. But I understand what your saying and it definitely sucks, corporate America! Keep an eye out though cause I have a feeling they may do another sale like this or similar. GL! Quote
Super User Felix77 Posted February 6, 2015 Super User Posted February 6, 2015 Trilene braid marked down to $5.97. I had just put one roll in my basket and was going back for 2 more rolls and the manager came over and said the items on clearance were not priced right and he rolled the entire clearance display into the back warehouse and said the items I had just picked out would not price out at the register as they were marked on the clearance rack and he would not budge on letting me have it for that price since I already had it in hand. The Trilene braid was now $17.97. Take it from a person who has been to a ton of DSG's over this sale (NY, PA, NC, NJ) ... they are notorious for doing this. That EXACT same braid was on sale in Yonkers and rang up "properly". My friend was at one close to home and he was in the store and watched as a bunch of people scrambled with price guns pulling things off the rack. They are either notorious for the "bait and switch" OR can't seem to get pricing straight EVER! It can be very frustrating BUT if you catch them at the right time it could be extremely beneficial. 2 Quote
Super User Maxximus Redneckus Posted February 6, 2015 Super User Posted February 6, 2015 I haggle with stuff not marked right and its good to know the.managers through there name out when u haggle u win ..my take on it like anywhere else if you have ppl on the clock it aint your fault the price is wrong.instead of walkin around in the store texting you should be doin your job.i have no sympathy for corporate america.just as do my job 110% i expect it from others if not no mercy 1 Quote
rawjuice Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Its any companies job whether its dicks, bps, gander or whoever, if the sale is over, they should have repriced/removed those sale items either that night or first thing the next morning. In reality its that managers ass, he should have realized that job should have been done by sunday morning and not thursday. Thats when you know that person should not be a manager. Quote

Just wen to the local NJ DSG, nothing special. Only decent rods were the GL2's and Rage rods. Im probably gonna wait till their summer sale starts to buy a new rod. Quote
Super User QUAKEnSHAKE Posted April 27, 2015 Super User Posted April 27, 2015 They just have clearance specials but not 50% off clearance. This 25% discount I didnt even know until I checked out and Lady said they were giving customers the Employee discount Quote
Super User fishballer06 Posted April 27, 2015 Super User Posted April 27, 2015 Is the employee discount still in effect? I might have to swing by DSG today after work. Quote

Super User QUAKEnSHAKE Posted May 24, 2015 Super User Posted May 24, 2015 DSG has Keitech baits bogo 50% Bought 4 packs of swing impact fat in store ordered 6 packs online Gander has all lines 25% off Bought 6# Nanofil and 30# Smackdown Quote
Super User FishTank Posted May 24, 2015 Super User Posted May 24, 2015 If you play it right, DSG has some good deals. I picked up some of the Keithech Impacts as well. My big purchase was a new trolling motor. They let me use two $10 of $50 coupons and I had two $10 reward cards. They then gave me 10% off for signing up for credit card even though my wife already has one. I also picked some new sneakers. They gave $30 towards a pair of shoes for donating two pair of old shoes. Then again two $10 off coupons and 10% off. $120 down to $60. I can't explain it. I asked if it was ok and they went with it.

Super User bigbill Posted May 24, 2015 Super User Posted May 24, 2015 Deals like this keeps me fishing. I fished with $2 rods and $12 bass rods. Quantum spinning reels and Excalibur silver thread line for many years. My PB 10lbs was caught on this set up. There's deals out there for any budget to get you fishing. Quote
