Play It Again Sports

This place does not have any snow gear, and the rest of their selection is quite minimal. The locations itself is small, and the staff could use some customer service lessons. To the worker who felt it necessary to sarcastically inform me that they have a phone number– perhaps you should keep your comments to yourself or take a basic intro to communication course, as I wasn’t asking for you to throw salty comments at me when I mentioned I had driven from the South Bay for nothing during rush hour traffic. I wish they posted on their Unilocal that they don’t carry snow gear. I wouldn’t support this biz even if I saw something I was interested in getting.

I’m going to start off saying I love this place. Been going there the past few years to purchase my disc golf equipment. Bought most my discs there, two traveling pins, and some other sports equipment. I normally get helped by Edson, and he has always been cool with me. Tonight I actually witnessed him and Alex dealing with a very disturbing customer, that I would of just politely asked to leave, but they both handled it like pros. Great job guys. When I read some of the older reviews on here, I get really confused. I have met Mike a time or two, and he has always been cool. It was brief conversations, but I understand he has a business to run, and I respect that. I also understand that it’s a USED sporting goods store. So the items that I am buying are not going to be in perfect shape. Things will not last as long as new items. What these guys do here is make things affordable for the family’s that may not be able to buy new things, and I applaud that. They get items in, clean them up, and get them out for display.(I’m sure there is a lot more to it) I believe it’s the customers job to determine if it’s what I’m looking for, and if it’s going to last, because I’m the one who is using it. I think it’s unfair to blame the store for something not lasting as long as you wished it would of. I also belive they do their best to make exchanges, or store credit, for items customers are not happy with. I definitely feel like some people are also taking advantage of some situations. It is a business that has to make money to pay rent, their employees, workman’s comp, and so on. I’m sure that no one that is working there is getting rich off of selling used equipment, so you should think about that before criticizing the buisness.
Keep up what you are doing there, because you are helping people in our community. I will be getting my daughter’s equipment there, when she grows up. Thanks again guys.
Bill,
I’m the guy you gave the Innova Disc Golf flag to, almost a year ago. Still got it, hanging in my garage. I know you said it was going in the trash, but I washed it, and it’s good as new. I’m sure I will see you again soon.

Went into Play it Again Sports to buy some soccer and tball equipment for our 3 year old boy, we were just looking around for a minute or so when Micheal approached us and asked if we needed help. Micheal told us about the soccer special which we took advantage of, he found us a used lefty tball glove, helped our boy try on his new cleats and more. He stayed with us and answered all of our questions. At the end he gave us a card so that we can eventually get 20 bucks off after 5 visits of spending at least 20 bucks. (Basically 20% off)
I’d rather give my business to the small local store that will remember me and offer great service rather than just being a number to a big name store. We will come back when he grows out of his current equipment (which will be soon)
Thanks for making this a great shopping experience Micheal.

Had a great experience here picking up some tball gear for my 4 year old. We bought some new and used stuff… very reasonably priced across the board. And, the guy who helped us was much more knowledgeable than the the guy from the big box sports store that we had just went to a few minutes before. For example, he explained to me how long the bat should be based on my son’s arm length versus the other store who said that it «just depends on what feels comfortable.» Will definitely be back.

So thankful to Bill there at Play it Again Sports. Our family was in a bind for a replacement on a piece for our sons’ football helmet. Bill gave us the piece we needed and we are just so thankful!
We’ve been here for baseball season supplies too and had great help with picking up mitts as we know next to nothing about equipment. Such knowledgable individuals with great customer service!

Amazing customer service! Our company buys stuff from here for our picnics every year… Just bought a treadmill here and at an awesome price… Thank you soooo much!!!
XOXO

Play-​it-​again sports is BACK!!! Amazing selection of high end baseball equipment. Can’t believe I forgot how good a deal you can get on used gear.
The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, a rare combination these days. Terrence really knows his stuff.
It’s nice to know there’s still an actual place you can go HOLD & HANDLE your used equipment before you click a button and receive something you never would’ve purchased in your life. BOO the Internet, YAY Play-​it-​again Sports, Los Alamitos!

WOW Bill!! As a small business owner such as you, I’m all about supporting neighborhood stores. After reading the reviews on Unilocal I was so put off by your responses to your unhappy customers. Perhaps keeping your «hot head» under one of your sports hats you sell, would be more advantageous than you telling off your customers. As an outsider and potential customer it seems to me that you justify your ill behavior towards your customers, by donating to local charities and making it known before you deliver the coupe de gras where you call them bad parents, idiots, and stupid. Shame on you Bill good luck with your business!

First time here and never again! I purchase a roll on bag for my son baseballs equipment, which cost $ 50. We went to practice after the purchase, which was down the street, his practice was 2 hr and by the time he was done we noticed that his bag had rip. He only roll it in once going in to his practice. We decided to take it back and our money back, which we did. 20 minutes after, we received a call from the manager accusing us of taking advantage, first of all, doesn’t the roll on bag it meant to roll, hello… That’s the whole purpose of the wheels. He said a car ran it over, it pathetic! Not professional at all with his business and definitely no manners. Never again will I step my foot in there, nor recommend it to anyone.

Went by there to buy some girls softballs, because I was told they had great prices. Boy was I wrong they were more then Sports Chalet. I told the owner that his price was more then corporate america and that I wanted to buy from a local business. He wouldn’t budge on the price he is selling them for $ 6.99 a ball you can buy them at Sports Chalet for $ 5.49. I told them I was willing to buy 30 of them and he told me the price is the price.

Purchased their Unilocal deal to buy a used wetsuit.
The suit I bought ended up ripping the first time I used it and I was only able to get a partial store credit return because I was outside of their 10 day return policy. This was the first time that I’ve had any issues with any of their products and they usually sell very high quality used sports gear. Now that I know about their return policy, I’ll make sure to test out the products immediately for durability.

Super friendly and helpful staff. Even carried my husbands weights out for me that I bought for him. Good variety of new and used sports stuff and you can always take it back to trade it in for newer things neat place

After shopping for anything from football equipment to golf clubs, this place has always come through. I have tried shopping at big name stores, and the service is terrible. I go to Play It Again, and they are quick to help, and if they don’t have something I need, they will figure out a way to get it. The employees actually know their stuff, unlike the other «big name» stores. Owner is a good guy, and I love the new location!!!

Selection, customer service, and value is what Play it Again sports is all about. If they don’t have it in their store they will either order it for you or let you know where you can go and get it. With 2 kids in youth sports, it’s great to have this quality of store in my neighborhood.
Play it again is a must!

Great place for used gear! The owner is super sweet! He gave my boyfriend a bat for free because he was getting rid of it! If you have questions, ask! They’re happy to help and their prices are great!

Over priced. Lots of used baseball bats for over $ 100 one I saw for $ 150. $ 50 used baseball bags wtf? Used wetsuits were $ 200+. Not much of a discount if you ask me.

My experience at Play it Again Sports was pretty awesome. I realized my son needed cleats for practice the next day and went to Sports Chalet… they didn’t have his size, so I went to another sports store and once again, they didn’t have his size. Out of sheer desperation I called Play it Again and they said they had a couple pairs of cleats and to come down and try them on. I brought my son in and the first pair we grabbed fit him perfectly. I checked the price thinking I would be paying $ 25-​$ 30 and guess what? $ 3.99. I am not joking. Yes, they were slightly used, but let’s be honest, he will probably grow out of these cleats before the season is over. I paid for the cleats and vowed to always check here first when I need sports gear. The two guys working there were very helpful to my family and I very much appreciate it. Thanks Play it Again Sports!

I came here because I was in need of a wetsuit and I was attracted to the groupon deal of $ 40 for $ 50. I got lost trying to find it because the sign for PORTAL drive was very faded. It was worth searching for as they were very helpful when I was searching for the right suit. I found a nice used suit in excellent condition for a decent price. $ 50 and it was practically like new. I got the suit for $ 40 because of the deal, and managed to find a neat used pair of small beginner swim fins. I’m all set for the waves tomorrow and am excited to test my used merchandise!
Play It Again Sports is a huge place with all sorts of sporting goods like skateboards, softball/​baseball equipment, surfing equips., golfing equips. and plenty more. I would recommend coming here if you don’t mind searching through things for a good gem at the right price.

Come here for Disc Golf discs.
This location is really close to the El Dorado disc golf course. Their prices are better than the pro shop at the park. They also have used discs too. I was able to score 2 Teerex drivers (hard to find used ones at shops). They have a ton of Innova and not too much of other brands. The depth of the selection is not too deep, but they have some great stuff there.
Don’t half step. Their putter selection is tiny, so don’t plan on getting wowed by the selection.
