RadioShack

My experience here was so bad, that I created a Unilocal account just to write this review.
I bought an adapter from here that was defective and they refused to give me my money back. The adapter came wrapped in tape, but the associate who sold it to me insisted that it had not been returned. She also told me that I could return it if it was defective.
I’ve never written a review before in my life, but this place just sucks that much.

Walked in to buy some cables. the workers didn’t know what they were talking about but they sure did like to talk. Only they didn’t have what I was looking for but they did try to sell me the wrong item 3 times. I would have done better to fish through all the poorly made trash made in china and learn this Radio Shack didn’t have the item in stock.

Helpful without being nice.

Came here on a Sunday afternoon, only two people working. We already knew what we needed. the male employee did try to be helpful and was attentive when we were ready to pay. The location is a bit tiny so not a lot of selections on certain things, but overall we were in an out fast.

Stopped in there today with broken headphones that I purchased. Curtis, the store manager, was extremely helpful and professional. Not sure about the other employees as it seems some people have had problems based on reviews. I would suggest just asking to speak with Curtis if you need help.

as a former employee… i can honestly tell you no one there has any idea what their talking about! The managers know the most but the employees have no idea! unless it’s something they make money off of i. e cell phone… replacement plans… i took the time to learn as much as i could but that wasn’t really aided by the company! Go to Best Buy… every time i’ve been there the employees look like they know so much about their products! I really dont think this location will be here in 2 years from now… maybe even the whole company!

Stopped in for a simple RCA audio/​video cable for my dvr. I walked in and the store absolutely reeked of body odor. It made for a bad impression right away and reminded me why I hate this particular store to begin with. I went right to the section I needed to be at, got what I wanted and went to the register. There were two customers in line and apparently together, as they were talking back and fourth about something. The man behind the counter was attempting to look up an item in the computer and was apparently not having much luck. He was giving the two customers some different options and they were discussing something back and fourth, sometimes walking away all together. The cashier just stood there with a deer in the headlight look. This went on for a good 5 – 7 minutes, back and fourth, back and fourth. I interjected and asked if I could just pay cash for my item and leave. He motioned for me to wait a minute and just stood there doing NOTHING but waiting for the two guys to return to the counter and tell him something. Then he came out from behind the counter and joined the two men. He then said he’d be right back and went out back. He was gone for another 3 or 4 minutes. Being disgusted, I walked over to the display rack and put my item back in the correct location. At that minute, the man came out from back and said he’d be with me as soon as he could. I told him not to bother, he had all the time in the world to work with the two guys who simply couldn’t make up their minds about something, shook my head in disgust and walked out. I am NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER going back to this store. I’d of given it zero stars if that were possible. People be warned and stay away. It just isn’t worth the aggrevation.

I wish I could give zero stars. I am so heated after visiting this Radio Shack location. Generally, I find Radio Shack to be sufficiently helpful if there is an experienced staff member on the clock. Some customers go in knowing exactly what they want and they have no questions. Other people aren’t sure exactly what they need and they might want some insight. What are the employees there for if they cannot help the customers? Just to take the money at the register? Are you kidding? I’d like the store manager or district manager to lay down some law and send me an apology. The employees were useless. They were way more concerned with the movie they were watching on TV than they were with helping customers. They could not answer any questions about the item I was looking at. They did a lot of shoulder shrugging. I ended up buying something and was immediately disappointed when I got home. I will be heading back to return the item and I am hoping there is someone there who is in charge so I can share my review of the store. I understand working in retail and making $ 8 an hour. It sucks. I did it for many years and made a lot less. But electronics are things people have questions about. Learn something about the products around you instead of being a worthless slouch for your $ 8 and hour. Seriously.

I’ve stopped in there a fews times, and nothing against radio shack as a chain in general (though cables @ all radioshacks are massively overpriced/​low quality), but this location sucks. Plain and simple. Easy parking and proximity to my job are the only perks for me.
This location is tiny and the selection is limited. I usually cannot find small components that I need. The main problem with this location is… employees. I am convinced that they have no idea what’s going on around them at all. Last time I went in, 3 of them were just screwing around, being loud, disruptive and unprofessional as all hell. I got 1 of them to help me out. I got what I wanted and got the hell out of there ASAP because he was driving me crazy. You don’t have to talk at the top of your lungs all the time, dude, but thanks for at least ringing me up. I had a few technical questions for him before that, and I could right away tell he was talking out of his ass. Just tell me you dont’ know, instead of spewing nonsense from your pie hole. These kids are having way too much fun working here.
