I stopped even going there after their latest blunder.
Riiiiigggghhhhttttt.....
Bingo... sales will fall across their product line and they will still be unable to explain the loss...
They built a new store down the street from me...but I go to Academy because so far they haven’t been stupid enough to mix their politics with their customers.
I will never go to Dick’s or Outdoor World due to their insistence on pushing their leftist agenda... why give money to these leftists who then turn around and donate to the Dems?
We used to have a small sporting goods chain here in SoCal named Chicks.
I shopped there occasionally until Chicks was bought by Dicks.
“surprisingly steep downturn”
Only to idiots and leftist ideologues is this a surprise.
The majority of their customer must be sportsman who use guns. And they want to pander to liberals who don’t ‘even shop there. What would think was going to happen.
we have a gigantic Dick store... which we will never set foot in again
at least not until they reverse this anti-American, insult policy
It is a free market system. Consumers can use any method to select optional merchandise.
It also depends on type of salesman attitude. I bought a lot of golf clubs from Golfsmith store in Portland, OR because their sales staff was more friendly and they had a 90 day return policy. Can’t get that on internet sales.
I prefer older golf sticks because the newer irons are too light. Now as a bogey shooter, I want accuracy and fewer bad shots than aiming for maximum distance. I have spent a small fortune on lead tapes over 55 years of golfing.
Yes, we are evolving weaker hand grip strength. That means less golf, canoeing and mountain climbing.
But gun gripping is fighting back on the trend.
I have bought, at least, 20 pairs of athletic shoes at Dicks. Also, some sporting things like a kayak, etc.
No more.
Only a surprise to liberals who are totally out of touch with mainstream America.
I go to Dick’s and fill a cart up before asking a salesman where the 30 round AR mags are. Then I leave the cart and walk out.
Oh my! I wish I could think of a more direct but equally clear way of communicating that message to the culprits at the top who are to blame for this disgusting and insulting new Dick policy. But as I cant , I have to say Congratukations on finding a way to let the company know just how revolting we customers feel about his theyre treating us. Thanks! And were thankful there are so many other better options than continuing to patronize The Dick.
It is called Dixie Chicking.
I use the power of the purse and will not support Dicks.
