This store is full of inventory. I always find what I need. Oops they did not have 22cal bird shot but had a great knee brace for my wife.
Im a house painter and I Go there to get shoes for work every 3 months.good selection and prices
The stock here is usually decent. Store is packed full, prices good, sales often. The main reason I give only 4⭐️is because I’ve never really been a fan, but I end up here a couple times a month.
Very rude manager, will not let children under 1 in without masks even though CDC guidelines say kids 5 and under should not be required to wear masks. The manager refused service to my daughter and her two children and when I called yelled and hung up on me. This is the first and only store we have ever been turned away from with our children not wearing masks. As adults we follow the mask guidelines the kids have a hard time breathing, will never support the grass valley store again!
They have alot of things that my husband likes & wants.
Real good service and very pleasant experience.
Poor customer service. Was asked if my 2 yr. old had a mask and when I said he was 2 I was given attitude. I have also watched the manager yell at customers. Hey guys YOU ARE IN CUSTOMER SERVICE! Learn some manners!
Always find what I need for my outdoor adventures
Was refused service because I had a t-shirt as a face covering and the person at the front (also wearing a mask made from t-shirt material) said I can buy a mask from the store. I had asked if I can have him grab the product I need and he told me no, I cant serve you without a mask.I am confused because they are able to sell me a bandanna for $5 then let me shop.This screams profit, not safety. Get it together Big 5.Wont be attempting to shop here again.
The store is great its a big five we like big fives anywhere we go usually. The problem with this store is one of the managers. I dont think theyre all this way and I dont know if they have more than one but the one on the weekend is just down right unresponsive and rude. If youre going to be in retail you need to learn that the customers are why youre even there. whether youre in a good mood or not the customer shouldnt know. Do your job or find another.
Good prices, friendly staff and they clean their counters between transactions.
Two of the staff were very rude and not helpful. My arm is in a sling and I politely asked the person, I believe the manager, if she could please carry 4 boxes of shoes up front for me since I can only use one arm. She sighed and stormed off with two boxes and left me with the other two. The clerk at the counter was just as rude. What has happened to our town and the great customer service we have always had.
Very clean, lots of merchandise, very friendly and efficient employees.
I love big 5 and they having a big sale on winter boots right now
Terrible experience due to your communist governor. Taking away the Constitutional rights of law abiding citizens, the right to protection from any and all released criminal. Making it impossible to buy self defense ammunition. With invasive unconstitutional laws. I was denied the purchase of ammunition because I had moved and had a valid drivers license with my correct new address. Your person doing my paperwork came back to the counter with the denial letter, no explanation for the denial and handed it to me with an attached letter and website and told me to go there. Of course with all the horror stories about this government website, I to am victim of this communist regime. No matter how many times or search engines I tried, could not access this ghost website.
Lots of parking and a good selection of sports equipment
Rude employees and the manager is a a@@hole! Do bother, just make the trip to the one in Auburn
I love this store! We get tennis shoes, work boots, sandals, slippers, socks, clothes, flashlights and locks here!!! Last year, I bought a $169.00 pair of shoes on clearance sale for $39.95!!! Awesome store! Excellent merchandise, terrific sales quite often, and great customer service!!!
Friendly staff well stocked Great store
Please do not support this store. There management is uneducated about whats going. The require you to wear a mask when its not mandatory in CA. This is a great way to push your customers away. Please educate your self.
I got a gift, went to exchange it. Was able to find what I wanted. Hassle free, even without a recipt. Everyone was wearing a mask and they were enforcjng custumers to wear them too.
Good all around outdoor recreation store. Friendly staff greets you as you enter and is always on hand to grab your size shoe or lend a hand in one of the various departments. Usually a decent pair of cheap shoes or boots on sale.Balls and gear for every sport with a decent selection of camping gear. Also, guns! Airsoft too. They even have weights and workout equipment... Stop in the donut shop next door to really round out your trip. Best in town!
Glad Big5 survived the closures due to COVID. Great resource for outdoor activities, ammo and sports gear.
Very nice people, I love the staff. Eeverytime I go in and need some more info on either my gym equipment or thwart type of running shoes I need they are always very helpful and knowledgeable
Good store. Lots of inventory and helpful staff.
Friendly and helpful staff. Clean and well stocked store.I can always find what Im looking for when I go to big 5 sporting goods!
Not very nice employees. Just every time I go there they are rude.
Very rude and unprofessional employees and management!! Every time my family of 3 goes in this store . Unfortunately we have Very few stores in our area 😕
Always have great ads in the newspaper but never have the items in the store. Went there 5 times for a certain item, I was told several times it would be in on Wednesday never showed up and it was in the sale ad three different times. If youre going to have something in your ad, order it so we can actually purchase it.
They are trying to survive like most of the the “Chains” that are under the attack of internet sales with no sales tax and next day free shipping. One employee stood out to me, his name is ZACH.. I saw customers yell to him across the store. Rude yes, but he kept his wit and composure about him when I would have went off on this very rude customer. ZACH DID AN OUTSTANDING JOB !!! This level 6 Google Guide recommends.
Decent
Been going there for yrs, always find that they have courteous & helpful employees...
Everyone was very professional. The only problem I have with this shopping experience was being charged for something I didnt want or have in my bag when I arrived home. Now I have to make another trip to town to resolve this mistake.
Very poor selection,not impressed
Great store with a lot of items to choose from despite the small location. The staff are freindly and helpful for advice if you need assistance. A little bit of everything for the sporting or camping enthusiast. I recommend them.
Consistently has great sale prices. They pack a lot in this little space and it can be difficult to move around. The fishing section is not so good but they make up for it with a lot of other goods.
Very RUDE and UNPROFESSIONAL Manager, Ive been to many Big 5s and Ive never encountered such an awful manager that treats customers this bad..It was kinda shocking really the lack of care he showed.... never seen anything like it
The gentleman that was working the shoe department was very nice and super helpful.
Scored a great deal on my paddle!
The new manager who helped me check in the dressing was demeaning (maybe she didnt realize it) and the policy of only 4 items at a time made my shopping experience very unsatisfactory. Then to top if off instead of the clothes I needed to try on being kept outside of the dressing room, she put them at the front desk and then disappeared so I had to go looking for the items I still needed to try on (which took over 10 mins because I had to thread through other customer clothes that were at the desk) I will not shop here again- too bad as I do like Columbia brand sports-wear which is not offered anywhere else in GV. Hopefully someone there will read this and other customers will not have the same experience as there is always room for improvement.
The employees are always nice and super helpful. We always keep returning because I of the great service and love that they dont hover.
First time in a very long time when store employees have been so helpful, and so happy to be there to assist. Great shopping experience to gear up our son for a camping trip.
Usually helpful, Kelly, a new staff member is awesome!
System was down and they had to make receipts by hand. shower service than usual
Wonderful friendly service great products at a reasonable price especially because of the holidays, many of them are marked down!
Service is great, love that they are open late.
Would rather have a Local sports store.BIG 5 is alright,they just dont have stuff for the local sports teams...And depending on what time of month it is, the ladies can be very irritable..We need another sports store to replace this one, does not tend to the community needs..Typical box store with no agenda
Pretty good selection of stuff. a little bit dirty
It has anything u need and a wearable fan and candy
I got a smoking deal on a fathers day gift. I Always shop locally when possible.
They dont often have the things Im looking for
Big 5 is a good sporting good store. The help is not so great tho.
Great friendly staff! I found what I needed so easily:)
All the basics for sports and outdoor lifestyle. Good prices and great customer service!
Price is right, and the employees are very helpful.
I love this place
Great customer service!
One of the few stores that still sells guns and ammunition...thats a plus in my book.
The employees are nice and friendly, and I find what I need at a good price- most of the time. This is the place to go for sports gear in the Grass Valley area.
Quick and affordable.
Price ?
Went here for my fishing license. Awesome staff and a friendly atmosphere.
Great selection of rifles, courteous and knowledgeable staff... Lots of air guns too.
You can find all camping products here. Highly recommended
A lot of good variety, but the prices are higher than they should be. Unfortunately theres no competition in town.
Can not get ammo and sunglasses are locked up so you cant try them on.
Moderate prices, pretty good selection for that kind of store.
Good place for many different outdoor needs and activities
Great place for all your sports needs
They always have great deals!!! Get on their email list for daily discounts!!!!
Very helpful staff.
Really nice sellers and very good prices
Friendly, fast and helpful. Pricing is fair also.
Lame. No change for cash
Very clean store. People at the ready for questions and they know what they are talking about, unlike some sporting goods stores in the city. ;)
Best place for all sports and out doors in town
For a small sporting goods store, they have it all and dont price inflate
High prices. Everything overpriced.
Always have great deals on cheap knives.
Best deals are shoes, not so much ammo
Great athletic shoe selection and sale prices
It has every sporty thing
They dont have a very great selection of kids items
Excellent salesman helped me today.
The employees there do a good job at making u feel uncomfortable like there just waiting an watching for u to steel something like when you come through the door your profiled stereotyped and then just watched horribly rude I thought
Always good.
Good place to find hiking shoes
Good sporting goods store
Decent selection of sporting good products.
Always great customer service
Great selection for a small town
Great staff in the shoe department
Its pricey but it has the rare items you may need. Unless you are searching for a deer free repellent, they dont have that...
Has everything you need for all sports
Theres always something you need at big 5
If youre an avid outdoors person, this is the place to go.
Great selection, wonderful staff.
Nice disc golf selection
Great sale prices on shoes
Lots of sports stuff bats clothes shoes everything
