stratocaster Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I read the filings they had to make ahead of the merger pretty interesting if you have the time to read it. I would be happy if they didn't merge. The cultures are different at both companies. There is a different feeling when you go to BP. I personally like Cab's more.

Cedars Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Had some good experiences with Bass Pro. Had a few bad ones also. Cabelas has always been positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

06roadking Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Cabelas for me though the Bass Pro in Seneca NY is a real nice store. Long way from here though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowhunter2004 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Merge, don't merge, I don't really care,... But one of them better finish, or I should say start building that store in Sayreville on the side of the parkway! I'm sick of driving to Hamburg.

HighEndHooker Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I only have experiences with Cabelas in hamburg and Bass Pro in Florida, but for me Bass Pro blows cabelas totally out of the water, not even comparable. Better selection and MUCH cheaper. Couldn't believe the prices at cabelas when I stopped there last week after the Harrisburg show. Might be the first time in my life I left a sporting goods store empty handed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Cabelas has gotten expensive and is becoming a hoodie and North Face jacket store. Used to be able to get anything there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better selection and MUCH cheaper. Couldn't believe the prices at cabelas when I stopped there last week after the Harrisburg show. Might be the first time in my life I left a sporting goods store empty handed Never buy anything at Cabelas at full price. (at least I don't). I always wait for their sales or use their coupons. Example, I love my 10-Point Bibs: http://www.cabelas.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=1224700 But I would never pay the full price of $150 for a pair (even with the lifetime warranty). But they seem to always go on sale for half off that (like they are now and for what I bought them at a couple years ago) - these are easily worth $75 to me now. I'm seriously considering buying a second pair while the sale is going on now - waterproof bibs with a lifetime warranty for $75. Dunno if I could find a better deal. Anyway, I find this a lot - their regular prices are expensive, but things go on sale often and price drops are usually considerable. I just put things in my "wishlist" on their website and periodically scan it for when things go on sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucksnbows Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Going to be hitting up cab's today for the first time. Regardless of prices, an outing to the Hamburg store is always fun, especially your first time. Even my wife likes going and she's not into the outdoors. https://www.troutscapes.com/ https://nativefishcoalition.org/national-board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
