Excellent pricing, and extremely personable. The owner joe will take care of you I promise. I will NEVER buy another piece of equipment unless its from this store. Also very reasonable used equipment return pricing. I bought cleats for 48.99 and used them for a week didnt like them and returned them for 45 dollars. Most places would have offered 15 bucks. Shopping here is your best bet I promise you wont regret it.

A very good place to find replacement equipment for most sports as well as all the accessories. Also a terrific place to resell your old sports equipment. They take very good care of their customers.

I have been going to this store for years. Today I brought my 5 year old grandson, whose idol is Vin Diesel. The owners played right into it. They are personable and their prices are WAY better than anywhere else with high quality. I will continue to go here before any other sports store. We even got free cloth masks!!!

Always has the items that my son needs. Staff is always helpful and ready with answers. Its nice to see a sporting goods store doing well that isnt a big box store.

Out of multiple major sporting goods stores in three New England states...2nd Time Around Sports was the only one to have a legitimate selection of SPORTING goods. Dont let the facade fool you. Just because this isnt a giant store...or national brand...doesnt mean that the selection and quality of products within is to be taken lightly. If ever in the area again...I will choose 2nd Chance above Dicks, Anthem, etc...for all sporting goods needs.Thank you!!!!

First time there. I brought in my mothers old skis, no clue if anything was wrong or if they could be looked at. First said no off the bat. I was asking a question to be stopped by him saying he wont waste his time with me and the ski and to get new ones. Rude, and awful. Will never shop there again

My favorite place to go for lacrosse. Prices are great, on par with Dicks and the like. What really separates 2nd Time Around is selection and service. I go here a couple months of months before lacrosse season each year, and the off-season selection is still great. The staff is amazing. They are incredibly knowledgeable. One employee knew off the top of his head the current stock room selection of defense lacrosse shafts (youll never find this anywhere else). The employees know what they are selling, and make it a point to stay current on the latest equipment so they can help the customer get the best value. Sports, especially lacrosse, are expensive, regardless of where you go. However, priceless things like product knowledge and customer service are just as important, and second time around checks all 3 boxes.

I went in with my sister and two nieces this past weekend to get their first pairs of skates. I was extremely impressed with the entire establishment.The staff was knowledgeable and the prices seemed mostly reasonable. What was most impressive, though, was the engagement level of the staff.Everywhere I turned, there were kids being helped with skates and helmets and other gear.There was even a person who took a young hockey player behind the counter and patiently taught him how to tape the top of his stick. These werent the stereotypical kids staring at their phones while patrons wander around aimlessly. Ive coached for 30 years. I can highly recommend this shop to any athlete family. Oddly, my oldest niece ran into a classmate... from Plymouth, MA... whose brother was getting some hockey gear. Its worth an hour drive, I guess. Kudos to the owner and staff. Well done!

Great place to go for lightly used and some brand new sporting equipment. All great quality, big variety and had what I was looking for that my son needed. I would go here first before I would go to one of those big sports stores, they have the same stuff at much better prices.

Always a good deal to be found. Their hockey selection is the best in Rhode Island in my opinion. The staff is extremely helpful and always available. Great place for anyone to buy equipment when first starting out or upgrading to a higher end.

If you’re going to donate anything don’t bother. They wouldn’t take a brand new soccer ball and other barely used items. Waste of time

Review №25

Went here 8/20/19 at 3:45pm. Brought in a children’s ski, exercise ball, exercise mat, roller blades and ski boots. The ski’s were from early 2000’s along with the rollerblades. They refuse to take them because they wanted “newer items”. The employee (didn’t get his name) was very cocky calling me buddy every other word in the sentence (I’m 24). I didn’t even take the ski’s out of the car and was told “don’t bring them in”. I felt chewed up like I wasn’t worth their time and I ask for a real apology because you’re employees are very cocky and thinking they’re better then you!

Although the store is fantastic and has tons of equipment, the employees could have less stern faces or at least act like they like their jobs. Greeting customers with a smile(even if fake) almost always guarantees a return trip

Great place, we took our son there he is 11 years old and saved at least $310.00 on baseball gear. Before going here we tried Dicks I am sure we would have spent at least $450.00 at Dicks. As well the customer service at 2nd Time Are Sports was great and there knowledge of the gear was equivalent.Thank you

I am glad I went here on Friday. I walked and the one of the employees asked me what we needed and went with me to where I could find everything. I never got that at DIcks sporting goods.I was also excited to trade in soccer cleats and a soccer ball.I thought the price was great for 2 pairs of cleats, baseball pants, glove and baseball socks.I came from Attleboro and will definitely be back.

Decent, not as much used equipment as you would hope for based on the name. Barely any used baseball gloves, only a few for very small children, when I visited. Plenty of brand new items, but they seem a bit over priced.

Walked in and we were immediately helped by a young man who got us right where we needed to go, fitted some wrestling shoes for my boy, grabbed some headgear and we were outta there in about 15 minutes. Top notch service and prices that cant be beat.

Great selection and knowledgeable, patient people working with us. We entered the store complete novices and left with a good understanding of how skates should fit, the varieties and brands as well as three pairs of very reasonably priced skates. Thank you!

I loved this store. I had an old bat I didnt need anymore and I needed some cleats. I went there, and the cleats were cheap and nice, and they took off money from the total when I brought stuff in.

Review №60

My 9 year old daughter just started softball and she went there for a glove and she didnt know which glove she needed so the guy asked what hand she writes with, its her right, they sold her a glove that goes on her right hand. I wasnt there when this happened but i went back to rectify they wouldnt fess up to mistake and made me return the glove as used and charged me more for the correct glove which was new with tags just as the first one was. The correct one she should have got the first time I had to pay more for, I mean cmon if you cant sell the correct baseball glove to a child you have no business selling to an organized league or team. I didnt complain to them about it but i shouldnt have had to, they basically called my daughter a liar because they wouldnt admit to making such a dumb mistake. So i came to post for hopefully others to see what you get when you go to an establishment which sells new and used equipment, if you return without tags they give you the used price, and i am sure this happens alot when kids go and get equipment for the first time and depend on the experts to sell them exactly what they need. I am very disappointed and will go to the pros next time.

I got a NEW set of XC skis and poles and boots. The salesman was very polite and helpful, searching for my size boots in the basement(?), asking someone more knowledgeable about length of skis I should get. I had just gone to REI and LLBEAN and they were at least double the price I paid.

Definitely call first to see if they have what you want!!The store carries largely mens athletic wear.Also, a lot had local teams on their clothing.Tremendous amount of hockey gear. Very little for women. Regular Sneakers were limited; (again ice hockey and cleated sneakers were more abundant).Maybe 5 or 6 pairs of sneakers (unsure if many sizes in those sneakers were available) A lot of Adidas. Again, mostly Mens sneakers. The quality and condition of what I could see was good except childrens shoes seemed to show more wear and tear.Parking is fine. Salesmen were very helpful.They may be stocking items that are needed for the location of their store, and gettin 2nd hand items which will vary what they have on hand.
