slider head Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 BPS and TW The cranks I wanted were 50 cents cheaper @ BPS last week........Tungsten weights were 1$ to 1.50 cheaper @ at TW Quote
rubba bubba Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Whichever has what I want at the price I want - which is rarely. I did have a crappy CS experience with Cabela's the only time I used their CS, but it was for an online order. I imagine in store would have been a better experience but there was no store near me at the time. Quote
infamous512 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 I will say Cabela's all the way, if I had to choose b/w the two. 1. Cabela's is much closer to me; 20 mins. vs. 1hr.50mins. 2. Cabela's prices seemed cheaper than BPS. 3. Cabela's great CS has won my vote. Quote

nickw234 Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 Bps for me there's not a cabelas here in Central Florida. I like Gander Mountain also they have a nice selection. Quote
Blues19 Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 for sure bps for me, i live within walking distance of the headquarters in Springfield. (only for a few more months, then i am back in st louis to student teach :'() Quote
ChiCityBasser Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 Cabelas for me with both Cabelas(Hammond, IN) and BPS(Portage, IN) being within about 30 min. Cabelas customer service has won me over as well as the layaway program for Cabelas. Actually the only time I go to BPS is during the beginning of the season sale when they have the reel trade in and I'm purchasing a new reel. Cabelas Quote
Super User RoLo Posted August 15, 2009 Super User Posted August 15, 2009 I deal with Bass Pro (since ***), Cabelas, Gander Mountain, Tackle Warehouse and other unmentionables. In an age of inflated shipping costs, "One-Stop" shopping has never been more important. With respect to bass angling, the inventory at Bass Pro is far more comprehensive than the inventory at Cabelas. Bass Pro gets the nod between those two, but my first tackle search is always Tackle Warehouse. Roger Quote
luckyfisher Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 i have both within an hour of me but surprisingly i dont go to either. I go to the local guy that has built himself up. Rogers Sporting Goods. only got the one store now but still cheaper and better service than both BPS and Cabelas sombined. Quote
gabes Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 Bass Pro for fishing and Cabela's for hunting. Quote
Super User David P Posted August 21, 2009 Super User Posted August 21, 2009 I can't stand either, neither of them are close by, and ordering online takes FOREVER. I order from Hooked Up Tackle, and if they don't have it, local shops. Quote
Vinny Chase Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Cabelas hands down.....we also dont have a BPS here :-/ Quote
JohnMac Posted August 24, 2009 Posted August 24, 2009 Cabelas. the shipping is faster and cheaper. Better pricing. Better discount options like the 5 dollar flat shipping or 20 dollars off 150 or more. Cabelas far surpasses Basspro Quote
