Listen! Im a worldly man. Ive lived in five states. Including California. I walked into the store, out of a snow storm. The lady behind the counter, was as nice as she could be without faking it. They had just what I needed. And all while making me so welcome I didnt want to leave! Hahahaha. Go to this store, the people are good people.

Review №29

I love the selection of items. The Kratom varieties are decent just a little more expensive then other stores. They are usually low or out of it though. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. They seem to have a problem opening up on time so Im not sure whats up with that?

I bought a $35 digital scale from here a few days ago and after I got home I turned it on and tared I out. It then began to count up all by itself. it went up as high as .06 grams. I again tared the scale out and it did the same thing.today when I went in the store the same girl that sold me the scale was working so I told her about the scale being bogus and she made no attempt to fix it or give me my money back. When I originally bought the scale they asked me if I wanted to receipt, but I said no kind of thinkingthat it was a brand-new scale and everything should work. So why get a receipt? I will probably not show up here again unless they make an attempt to contact me to make things right.

Pretty cool products but I gave them 1 star because as long as they have been open, they should have a actually website and I shouldnt have to go on Facebook to view anything pertaining to this business.

My boyfriend and I are literally here 2-3 times a week and we drive 40 minutes. We love the staff. We love the products and they get new product deliveries i believe twice a week. Their prices are the absolute best in town. Theres one employee there who absolutely knows exactly what shes doing we needed basically a piece conjured up to work for another we were buying and she had it put together to perfection in minutes. Great choices of baja threads and their wheel is an incredible plus to making a trip. Love it there.

Review №37

Not only are they considerably cheaper than most in the area, but they also have the nicest staff! Impressed with their knowledge and willingness to help...def better than any competition right now. (Wish their wheel spinner wasnt quite as LOUD, but... LOL thanks for the munchy bags!)🤗 👍

Couldnt give this one a lower star. costumer service is horrible, but not as bad as their products at least🥴 i bought something and could tell the MANAGER had NO clue what she was talking about and all of her little minions are just crackheads who cant handle the fact that they are scamming people.

Went in to buy a new nectar collector on my birthday, bought one that was super dope, went to use it later in the day and it didnt hold water, went to take it back and there was a lady in there who looked at me like i was insane then told me the manager wasnt in and would be back the next day, continuing to stare at me like i was an alien, this was my first and only time going here, would not reccomend this place to anyone looking for a place to go and talk to someone with actual knowledge on glass, or anything for that matter.

I called this business today and asked the person who answered the phone if they had a specific product and what the price was. Got a lyft to get there only to find out the store isnt even open. I was not told this over the phone and everything online says theyre open till 9pm. I will never shop at this store.

So this is all the bad experiences Ive had with Things and Things. I will note that I got my first glass pipe from here and didnt have any issues with it. That was over a year ago and it was also the last and only good thing Ive experienced here.The stuff mentioned below all happened early 2016:1) Sells sub-quality products.I bought a bubbler from these guys. 3 days after buying it, the stem on the bowl snapped off while I was wiping the inside out with toilet paper. Normal pressure and spinning with a couple square of toilet paper in the bowl to dry it out broke 2 pieces of glass that were supposed to be secured together. I couldnt believe it. Edit: Tried to include pictures. Apparently google reviews doesnt like that.2) They do not care once they have your money.Called them and informed them of the above issue. Was told We dont warranty anything. We have to assume you broke it. Youll note the lack of a Sorry we sold you something that broke immediately. I informed them that they cant sell sub-standard quality products to people and then not do anything about it. Thats poor business. I was again told they cant do anything about it. Im only assuming but I think the person on the phone was agreeing with me but wasnt able to say so out loud. This one is on the manager for the established practices.3) Lack of competence when it comes to glassMy girlfriend didnt want to wait for a replacement bowl and, against my advice, went to Things and Things to get a bowl now instead of waiting for one off the Internet. I told her to ask for a bowl with a 14mm male joint. They proceeded to tell her she needed a downstem multiple times. A downstem for a direct inject bubbler. Really?? After some odd minutes of frustration they finally understood bowl does not mean downstem and she was able to get the exact same bowl that had come with the last bubbler. How much was it? Read on...4) Not even sure of their own prices.She quoted $20 for the bowl. My gf paid that and afterward the younger guy said the fancy ones are 15. Those are probably 10. The lady immediately corrected him and said they were 20. Shady as hell...5) Still Sells sub-quality products.Surprise surprise...the stem on this one broke, too! However, this one lasted about 2-3 weeks. Cause of breakage this time? Set it on the counter while cleaning it. I set it stem up. It rolls, hits the counter, and snaps in the exact same place as the last one.6) Will not give price quotes over the phone.Theres absolutely no legal reason for this. This is just a jerk tactic to get you to come in and buy marked up stuff in trade for convenience. You already made the trip, right? Why not shell out the extra 10 or 20 bucks?An employee has commented on this before saying Its because we cant check IDs over the phone. Price quotes have nothing to do with keeping glass from getting into the hands of underage people. You cant smoke out of a price quote.If theyre underage, theyll get (or make) one regardless of you not telling them AND inconveniencing hundreds of other customers I cant tell you prices over the phone!I have neither the time or the patience to make up stuff like this. Learn from the mistakes that my girlfriend and I have paid for in dealing with Things and Things. We wont be patronizing this place again.
