I bought a rod stand at the Lewisville store today. When I brought it home there were 3 pieces missing. I took it back and they would not do anything-no store credit, nothing. The kicker is that I was going to take the $17 credit and spend an additional $100 or so on a rod. I should have opened the box at the store and checked to make sure everything was there, which is the point of this post. If you buy ANYTHING from them now, make sure you open it up and that everything is in the box. They will not work with you if anything is missing.

Have they increased the sale prices any? I went in last week and had the same prices as almost a month ago. I didn't see any deals good enough to buy especially when you consider their no refund/exchange policy.

40% off on lures.
No refund policy is clearly posted, liquidators are handling it all now, gander mountain has no say in the transactions.

I was very aware of the no refund policy when I made the purchase. However, my assumption was that everything that was needed to assemble the rod holder was in the box. Yes, that is on me...my warning is simply to make sure folks OPEN the item they are about to purchase and make sure all parts are present.

Hope all of the other stores take note of what happens when you are always overpriced on everything. It is getting so easy to order on line from TW. Order on Monday and have it before Friday just in time for the weekend.

If you paid for it via CC then start the chargeback process VIA that way, That might be the only satisfaction you get.

Side note to that is we went up there the other day and my FIL found the only right hand bait caster left. When he opened the box at the counter it was missing a cap. Definitely inspect before you buy.

Good riddance. I looked at their website a couple of times and their prices never encouraged me to go in one of their stores.

Buying on line is not just about price but selection. Bass Pro does not even carry the shorter replacement blades for my fillet knife. So I go to Amazon and pick up other stuff while I am there.
