Great service, good price, small business no-how

Reviewer: Andrew V. Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
I had a positive experience with now called Dick's Stereo. Their prices are reasonable, and guaranteed to be less than the chain prices of Car Toys or otherwise. They are an obvious small local business, who really knows their stereos. They can solve any problem, and connect you with anything you want, and they're proud of what they do. With a shrine like display of photographs you can see the crazy stereo set-ups they've installed over the years. My only complaint was how long I had to wait for my vehicle to get out. It took several days to get an appointment, and for a stereo upgrade, they had it for a good portion of the day. I wasn't expecting that, but its completely forgivable compared with their redeeming positive qualities! Thank you Stereo King!

Good Installtion Department

Reviewer: Lisa Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
I ordered online a sirius sattelite radio and needed it professionally installed in my vehicle. These people scheduled me for an appointment the very next day. The installation was done in about a hour and I was very concerned about wires showing and there were none. They did a terrific job and would go there again. Price was good also.

I'll go you one better!

Reviewer: Paul P. Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
I'm also a long time customer (8 years) and I think the previous reviewer hit the nail on the head! Stereo King is the kind of place you go to for serious purchases. Not that you couldn't or shouldn't go there for minor stuff too. But if you ever walk into the place on a Wednesday afternoon, which is my day off, and you see how crazy it can get on their sales floor ON A WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON you must come to the obvious conclusion that these customer's do "know something the other reviewer don't". Just drop by Car Toys on a Wednesday. That sound you hear is boredom.Some may also be intimidated because they don't always respond to the customers like mindless robots ("Wazzup?" instead of "HelloandwelcometocircuitcityhowmayIbeofassistancetoyoutoday?"). They dialed in my WRX's system & I give them a thumbs up! (Parker)

A Fresh Opinion....

Reviewer: Cindy M. Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
My family has been going to the people at Stereo King for over 18 years and we have never had anything less than a 100% positive buying experience at this company. We go to the one in Clackamas whenever we want to get anything for our cars and boats (we have bought 6 complete systems from them). My husband is a service manager for one the largest auto dealers in Oregon, so the fact that he won't go anywhere else might tell you something about his opinion too.My friend told me that she doesn't always like shopping in smaller stores because there isn't as much selection as the bigger malls (She likes Best Buy), but she also said that the last time she went in to Best Buy for some advice on buying a pair of speakers, she couldn't help but feeling like she knew more about what would work for her than the 19 year old lady that helped her did.IMHO - Stereo King is really more of the place to go when you need expert advice and service. Yeah they don't wear name tags and uniforms, but that's probably because these guys don't need to. Everyone that I've ever seen in there seems to be on a first name basis with these guys. There must be something to this company that some of the other reviewers just don't get. Maybe there is the type of store that people who are just shopping like to go to, and then there are the type of stores that buyers go to. I suppose the place could use some new paint but who cares, I go there to have my car taken care of and it comes out super every time. Their prices are competitive & I would highly recommend them!

Excellent Prices and Service

Reviewer: Kaiserin Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
I came in knowing the exact car stereo receiver that I wanted, as I had done a little online research. I was relieved to find that the staff was very friendly and were there to help me as soon as I walked through the door. They didn't try to "upsale" me on a more expensive model; I was just asked few questions about my car so they could estimate the price of installation. At $35 for an after-market install, it's hard to find a better deal. The sale price on my stereo receiver beat Outrageous Audio and Cartoys sales. They matched the price of Fry's on clearance. It's a no-frills showroom with hand-made price stickers, but that's just fine with me, as the staff is very knowledgeable seem to want you get what is right for you. Installation was done quickly in 30 mins, and I was told I had a lifetime warranty. This came in handy, because as I drove away I noticed a slight whining sound when I accelerated. I drove right back and they fixed it on the spot within 10 minutes with no hassle. I'm confident that if anything happens in the future, they'll stand behind their warranty and take care of the problem.
