How good are TSC stores?

Danny:

Yes, Rural King does sell 3ph implements. If you're in Seymour, closest Rural King would be Jasper. If you want an idea of what they stock, their website is: Ruralking.com. Variety does vary from store to store.

I get stuff at the TSC in Sherman, Texas pretty often. I like the store. They have a pretty good inventory of small tractor implements, but the personnel is pretty much ignorant of the products. Prices are good.

We have a TSC here in Sioux Falls, cluttered and sales people are lack in knowledge of their items. Prices good, though. When we lived in Cadillac, Michigan, a really nice QFF, good people there, as in Traverse City, about 50 miles north.

Alan, I've got 3 TSC stores within 55 miles, and heard last week they're going to build another new one about 25 miles from here. The oldest store has some very knowledgeable personnel and the newest one has new folks who are still lost in there./w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif The other one is kind of in between, but pretty good.

Bird, I've used the TSC stores in Decatur, Gainesville, and Denton. Denton is by far the best as far as stock. Decatur has so much business, they can't seem to keep anything in stock and in Gainesville, they are somewhere in between. I guess it's like Dairy Queens... just depends on the management./w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Jinman, I've used the ones in Waco, Waxahachie, and Corsicana, and now hear they're going to build one in Hillsboro. I guess the one in Waco is the oldest, best inventory, most knowledgeable employees, etc. Reckon the fact that their distribution warehouse is right behind the store has something to do with that?/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Danny, The Rural King in Brazil is the only one I have been to but it by far beats out any other store. But I have never been to a Big Blue, Is there any close to Va?

Rich,
We have several TSC's around the area, and they are o.k. for general ag stuff. I think they are a little too proud of their implements and trailers. Prices are way out of line on their trailers! Quality of their hardware is average when you need to get by in a pinch, but they do not seem to keep stock on very many metric bolts or nuts. Store employees are basically worthless, as you ask them for grade 8 bolts and they direct you to the bolt isle. They don't know grade 8 from grade 2. They are just shelf stockers. I buy my overalls and gloves there, as you about can't beat the prices on work clothes.
