Johnnys True Value Hardware — Attraction in Harlingen

If you are a veteran and want to get your fishing license or hunting DO NOT GO THERE UNLESS YOU GO IN UNIFORM ON because the lady with curly hair there does not accept VA Identification, Texas License that clearly say VETERAN on it or webpage that says veteran is 100% disabled because she won't believe you. I went there two days ago and said, Hello I am here to check on a fishing license, hold on let me please show you my VA and Driver license! First thing that comes out of her damn mouth is "Do you have any money"! I told her even if it cost money I am not poor I will pay for it. I showed her all paperwork and she insisted that there is nothing on my license and guess she was blind or she has never seen a VA medical ID card and also said there is nothing on my healthy vet website where it clearly shows I am 100 % disabled. Some very nice lady in the back kept telling her several times it says it on the Driver License over and over but this ANTI VETERAN NAZI lady was racist against veterans and insisted that it didn't. So if you are a veteran PLEASE do NOT go to Johnny's true value for your fishing license or hunting license! Clearly Johnny's True Value DOES NOT VALUE VETERANS. If I can I would give...

I think the only time I ever go to Johnny's True Value as when I'm looking for something that is almost impossible to find.

But the part that I needed to fix the steering arm had to be ordered and would have taken weeks to get through the mail. And I was amazed that Johnny's had it. Another time I was looking for a special piece of Plumbing material that I couldn't find it one of the larger chain stores. It was a special kind of PVC fitting that it was being used for a science fair project. Again I saw it on mine my son needed it that week they had it. Right now I just found a few pieces of metal that are work around for fixing a piece of furniture I have. So far they're...

A bit more pricey than the big box stores. However, they have the most arcane of hardware needs not found in other stores. Most employees are nice and eager to help. I have encountered attitude from a few long timers there, though. Well stocked in every department. My biggest issue is that I have personally been accosted by 4 homeless people in Johnny's parking lot. So, you have to pay attention going in and out of this store. I have addressed this matter to management and they SAY they call the police but they haven't convinced me they are interested in coming up with a solution because it happens all the time. This GOOD store can be better. Yeah, the gun department people are a little too chatty...
