San Andres Hardware

Its sad because this is my local hardware shop, and I support them. Despite the fact that their prices are higher than other larger stores, its convenient, and I want to support the local business. However, this place continues to disappoint at every turn. I show up at 4:30 PM and they are posted as being open until five. The guy is still there outside locking his parking lot at 4:35, 25 minutes before their posted closing time, but refuses to allow me to purchase anything or enter. Unapologetic, unhelpful.

This great locally owned business is always my go-to hardware store before I go to the big corporates. Poppy is awesome, a great old guy who knows what he's talking about. And even though it is a smaller store there got what you need and they even have an outdoor gardening section which is better than one might think. All in all please support this store they deserve it!

"NO REFUNDS "

Up until this week I have been happy with this store. There is a new employee, a nice looking young man, who was rude and hostile toward me. I was just asking where I could find birdseed. It was concealed in a can among lots of other things. He said you know where it is. I said you directed me there but couldnt see it. Yes, you saw it. Yes, you saw it. He said angrily. I Would not ask for it if I could find it myself.No excuse for his rudeness, as I have been very polite. I want to buy another chair there, but will not go there with him.
