1.0 of 5 stars. When at all possible, which is 99% of the time, I avoid this place like the plague. The only reason I go here is because I happen to be driving by and realize I need something right away. Otherwise I...

2.0 of 5 stars. Other than the creepy guy with slicked hair and glasses who follows you around the store, this place isn't that bad. Their selection is so-so and their prices could be better considering a lot of...

2.0 of 5 stars. Pardees' has the best inventory and selection in the Sacramento area, and are probably the professional's best choice for in-area purchasing, along with Action Camera. Their used equipment area is...

Yelp.com Review - by Christopher C.

2.0 of 5 stars. Pardees is a necessary evil. They are well stocked and since Camera Arts closed its pretty much the only place to get decent studio gear. BUT the staff is pretty annoying. Most (not all) of them are...

Yelp.com Review - by Ben B.

3.0 of 5 stars. It's too bad they can't match prices of online powerhouses, the product is cheaper plus no tax and only 5 for shipping. People are spending money wisely these days and price is more important than...

1.0 of 5 stars. Pardee's is the ultimate Paradox. On one hand you want to like the shopping there. The place is well stocked and the staff know their stuff, no doubt about that. On the other hand the staff are...

Yelp.com Review - by Bakari C.

3.0 of 5 stars. I have to agree with some other reviewers that Pardees is not always a very friendly place to visit. They've gotten better recently, but is not a great shopping experience when you visit the store....

2.0 of 5 stars. Prices are a bit on the expensive side. I get funny looks from the staff and gave me that car salesmen vibe. I guess they've got major complaints are from people browsing their inventory, and they...

Yelp.com Review - by Bob H.

2.0 of 5 stars. Way too expensive. Staff isn't all that helpful, I had to dig around myself to find what I was looking for. They only reason I am giving them 2 stars is because they have a decent selection. Wish...

Very poor service, dangerous behaviour in the electronic age of commerce

I came here three times, each time left in a bad mood. The staff are very pushy and commission oriented. They don't want to discuss anything, they just want you to make a snap decision-their decision, and if...

Yelp.com Review - by Mattie P.

1.0 of 5 stars. Pardee's gives me the creeps. I don't like it at all. I'd gone in a few times with a friend who shops there because it's close to his house, and I always felt oddly unwelcome but I couldn't pinpoint...
