Clean store and all the merchandise was off the floor and pretty organized. Only negative thing I have to really say is the lack cashiers. I only counted 2 and there is several other checkout lanes, which caused there to be a long line of customers. Kinda reminds me of Walmart. Good note, the cashier was very respectful and sociable. Had a great smile.

When Academy first came to Odessa/Midland area, it was exciting to go. And although products and prices are still top notch, i guess its just kind of getting boring to go. Maybe its time to re arrange the inside or maybe provide some new and exciting amenities.

This location was neatly organized and the staff are all friendly. The line to pay at the register may seem long but the cashiers are fast. The young man in the firearms department Matthew helped me make a purchase. He is extremely knowledgeable and made the whole experience smooth. Will definitely shop at this location again.

Ok I did it so you dont have to, the neon green Lazer poles, open face is an absolute must 💚, and for that I thank you!!the closed face however is the biggest waste of money, do yourself a favor and get a Zebco before getting that...

I just called and spoke to Liz/Lu whatever the apparel managers name is and she was definitely not the manager type. I shopped there yesterday and spent almost $200 on Nike shirts and none of them were properly sensored so they all have holes in them!! That’s sad as a store that carries majority apparel, the manager fails to teach their employees this SIMPLE concept of how to sensor. You are supposed to sensor along the seam of the collar so there aren’t holes just in case they don’t get this training and I guess this store fails to teach their employees this.

I noticed that even the under armour clothing items I buy here fall apart, have small holes or tears that get bigger once I wash, or have a stain that I didnt see in the store. I mean the last 5 times I have gotten clothing here, spending $200-$300, its been regrettable.

Bought an item online and it turns out item was out of stock,i wasted time waiting for the store to realize later that they did not have the item at the store,and this is why you should just buy on Amazon and avoid this lack of organization that will delay your project

This store is terrible!! They sold me a broken gun safe, when returned they said it would take 2 days for my money to go back on my card, it took 5. Have also sold me a malfunctioning shotgun that wouldn’t chamber a second shell after initially firing, they don’t return or replace firearms so it took just shy of two months to be replaced through the manufacturer!

Justin the guy in charged of the fitness center was rude and walked away while we tried to explained that we were missing parts from the gym equipment we bought. The only person willing to fix our problem and make calls to fix our issue was Tom from the warehouse, how embarrassing that the guy at the warehouse is willing to make costumer happy instead of the actual manager. Bad bad bad management!!

Today the first two employees I got assistance from didnt seem to like their job but thank goodness for the lady that checked me out, she was a breath of fresh air. Not used to academy employees with a lack of enjoyment in their job. Hopefully, they find a way to enjoy customer service and their job. Good luck management.

Worst customer service!! I bought their last womens bike available and asked if I could come back and pick up because I didnt have room with the kids and it would fit better in a truck. They said yes but then resold the bike within minutes. They didnt even put a label that said it has been paid for with my name on it. One of the cashiers said she didnt know why we didnt take it in the first place. Manager did ask if I wanted to wait a few more days until they received more bikes at 20%off but who know how long that would take.

Review №72

Justin in customer service was more than helpful. We have had a very hard time replacing a damaged backboard on our basketball hoop due to COVID and many companies and resources being closed during this trying time. We had tried to order a replacement on Academy online and ran into several roadblocks. This was upsetting as we only had the hoop for about 2 months before it got damaged. Justin was so helpful in working out a solution with us. Truly the best customer service during this time.

I went in with my baby in her carseat expecting to be able to put her in a cart but there wasn’t any when I arrived. So I was struggling holding her while trying to shop when Frank saw me and asked if he could get me a cart. He not only got me a cart but saw I had my hands full and helped put her in the cart for me. I knew then I had to write him a review because you don’t see customer service like that anymore.Thank you Frank.

Love going here for camping and sports gear! We also love it when shoes and clothes are on discount! We even got our tazer here! Be careful if youre wanting to go in a hurry on the weekends because lines can get pretty long, other than that its a great and clean store! Would definitely be going back!

This store always has everything you would expect them to have and many more things that you wouldnt expect them to have. Sometimes I visit just to look around with no real plan of buying anything just so I can see what all they have. I find several items that I never noticed before. The line to check out can seem kind of long occasionally, but it definitely goes down fast with their checkout system they have in place.

Review №96

I normally love Academy, but this was such a terrible experience. I went to the gun department and asked for help and the guy says, “after I get done pricing this stuff”! I don’t know about y’all, but to me, customer service comes first. Prices mean nothing if you have no one to sell to. Extremely disappointed.....
