I went into Eastside saw to get a diagnosis on my Bosch tool because they are a Bosch dealer. They charged me a $20 diagnosis fee. After a couple weeks, Michael called me stating he has repaired my tool and wanted "X" amount of dollars for the repair. I asked him why he never called me to get an approval and he simply stated it wasn't there policy to do so. I was never explained this prior to dropping the tool off, he gave me two options: Pick up the tool and pay the full amount (a price that I never agreed to). Pick up a disassembled broken tool.

I told other GC's about my experience and wasn't believed. Brought them in with me on more than a few occasions and they couldn't believe it. So I went elsewhere. That type of customer service is learned behavior. Trickles down from the...
Read moreI own a small flooring company in town and have been coming here for about a year to get tools for my staff. They have a great selection of higher end tools, and their prices are comparable to Amazon for the most part. We had one little customer service issue last time we came in, but once the manager found out he was very quick to call me and apologize and make it right. No business is perfect all the time, but knowing they care when someone is unhappy means a lot. We'll...
