text: I'm all for \"personal service\", but it can get out of hand in a hurry.\n\nI was here on a Saturday afternoon, admittedly a busier time for any establishment.  The guy who appeared to be the manager, as he was wearing a different outfit than the other employees, greeted me as I walked in.  Including him, there were 4 or 5 employees and each was helping other customers.  So I started walking around, looking at the merchandise.  Not such a great selection, and not such great prices, but better than Sports Chalet (selection, not price).  \n\nLo and behold, I found the same running shoe I had been wearing previously and was already very happy with.  It was $10 more expensive here than where I had originally gotten it 8 months ago, Marathon Sports in Boston.  Interesting, because you'd figure 8 months worth of new styles would have devalued these a bit.\n\nSo I'm an easy sale - 5 minutes to grab my size out of the back and ring me up.  But I had to stand around and wait for someone to help me.  And wait.  And wait.  All of the employees were feigning actually helping customers but were really shooting the shit about topics as far ranging as personal style and Bartlesville, OK.  After patiently standing around for 20 minutes (but quietly staring daggers at the employees), at least 4 other customers entered the store after me.  One of them, as an employee was finally ringing a customer up, ran over to him and asked for help, and he of course started to fit her.  Several of us were angered by the blatant attempt to jump ahead and we all made our anger very well known.  Wouldn't you know it, I finally got someone to fetch me my sized 10.5 Asics out of the back and ring me up.\n\nSo to reiterate - good store, decent selection, ok prices, and if you are a newb that needs that personal attention for a true fitting then you'll get it here.  But they need to have a numbering system like a deli counter to avoid an angry mob.  And if you already know the shoe you want to buy, get it online for a bigger savings (and tax free) and avoid the hassle entirely.\n\nOh, and the parking situation blows.
