I will not set a foot in that store again because of the following experience I had the last time I went. I wanted to buy a .22LR rifle and after having waited almost an hour to see a salesman, finally my number was called and I asked to see 3 rifles I had read about online. The guy seemed rather careless and not particularly helpful when I asked him about his opinion about one make verses the other, including a problem I had read about with one of the makes. I finally picked the one I wanted. Being a non-US citizen(I\u0027m Belgian), he asked me for proof of state residency, which consists of bills for the past 3 months showing my address, which I had brought with me. He looked at the bills and asked me if they were \u0027the originals\u0027. I told him that they were printouts and that I\u0027ve never had originals because I did all my bills online(this is why the USPS may go bankrupt as we advance in the computer age!). He told me that he needed to have \u0027the originals\u0027. I left.<br>I had a friend(also non-US citizen) who had recently purchased a shotgun from another shop(in Orlando) also using printouts of bills with his current address - not a problem. After that I went to another major firearms dealer in Miami, picked my rifle of choice(Marlin 60), showed him my printed bills, DL, permanent residency card(green card), and after a background check was on my way with my new rifle. This is how it should be. The purchase price of the rifle was a bit more than at Basspro but it was worth it, and the salesman was pleasant and helpful - priceless. What is the difference between a printout from your own account online and one sent to you by regular mail, I have no idea, and it seems the Basspro salesman didn\u0027t know either since he asked me. How asinine.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Bass_Pro_Shops\/review\/1035773#comment1035773","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Bass_Pro_Shops.jpg","store_name":"Bass Pro Shops","username":"helmut70","rating":"1"}, "single");){kind=link}

![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"my experience with Bass pro shops in the past was fair to decent! The last order I made was for a EZ mount trolling motor bracket. It states \u0022Now you can mount your trolling motor anywhere on your boat\u0022 what they failed to say was...it\u0027s flimsy,untested,poorly made and if you chose to return it? you may wait until the cows come home to get your money back! I purchased this product in Feb. when it arrived it was already broken...a part fell off when I opened the package. I rigged it up so I could use it and found in the first minute it wouldn\u0027t work...in fact I almost lost my motor.<br>I called and said I needed a RMA so I could return it and get my money back. Today is march 17th and still haven\u0027t been issued a refund. I was told everything would be taken care of! never will I buy ANYTHING from bass pro again their service right down to the personnal is unacceptable. I could go on and on about this event but the bottom line is they SUCK! amazon.com puts them to shame they are everything bass pro is not!","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Bass_Pro_Shops\/review\/723074#comment723074","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Bass_Pro_Shops.jpg","store_name":"Bass Pro Shops","username":"TLP70","rating":"1"}, "single");){kind=link}

My experience with every order has been first rate.<br>This order was placed on 4-2 and received on 4-7. The order was correct and well packed.<br>All orders have been the correct item, complete and arrived in just a few days.<br>I really like the fact that I can read other users feedback on most items even if that review is bad.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Bass_Pro_Shops\/review\/557478#comment557478","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Bass_Pro_Shops.jpg","store_name":"Bass Pro Shops","username":"sportyinc","rating":"5"}, "single");){kind=link}
![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"Ordered a headlamp that was supposedly out of stock, but would be shipped within two weeks. A few days later I get a phone call asking if I want to keep my order, at double the price I paid, or cancel it. The representative claimed that their cost from the supplier had gone up and they couldn\u0027t honor the price I bought at.<br><br>At least they were nice enough to call, but this was a pretty lame move on their part. I won\u0027t be shopping with Bass Pro Shops again.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Bass_Pro_Shops\/review\/540742#comment540742","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Bass_Pro_Shops.jpg","store_name":"Bass Pro Shops","username":"SC05","rating":"1"}, "single");){kind=link}
![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"I ordered a kayak on 9\/2\/2009, including payment of $111 for shipping. Having gotten no confirmation and status showing \u0022In Progress\u0022, I called and was told the order had been voided because the shipper said the item was oversize for delivery to my house. Helloooo - I guess no one felt it was necessary to call or email me.... Update: Then I find they charged me after all! Called back, now cust svc tells me they re-entered order with a different order # and \u0022corrected\u0022 shipping! And still didn\u0027t call or email. What an operation!

![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"This store has the best service out there. I have ordered fishing poles,lures,baits,waders,line,terminal tackle etc. and have always had prompt delivery. Easy to order items on the website. I even had to send back a combo I didn\u0027t like (they have a 30 day MBG on all purchases less S&H) and had no problems getting a refund. They sent a letter in the mail detailing what was returned and how much was credited and the date, which was the full amount less S&H.<br><br>To sum it up, excellent site and worry free ordering, good customer service and products, and have good deals too like stretch pay :).<br><br>A+++<br><br>Mike AZ<br>","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Bass_Pro_Shops\/review\/177016#comment177016","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Bass_Pro_Shops.jpg","store_name":"Bass Pro Shops","username":"shoppermike","rating":"5"}, "single");){kind=link}

"When I first got into hunting, RedHead (Bass Pro's hunting brand) was my favorite catalog. The prices were better than Cabela's. Somewhere along the way Cabela's saw much better success and their selection grew much larger than what Bass Pro could offer, and consequently, their prices were lower due to buying power. I still find the occasional deal with Bass Pro Shops that Cabela's can't touch. I'm sure I will be a lifelong customer because of that."
