“I use this stones store over the other local stones locations because they always have what you need or will get something you use on a regular. The store manager is straight forward and blunt at times but with the way people are now a days, can you blame him? He's not rude or disrespectful, he just runs a tight ship and holds his crew to a higher expectation. Every time I walk in I'm greeted by one of the employees asking if I need help finding anything but not in the way they feel like they HAVE to ask but because they genuinely want to help. I saw a few comments from others saying that they are over priced and I would agree but being the only hardware store in a small town just around the corner gives you that advantage and to be fair, they've been there much longer than I can remember. So they are doing something right. I'd consider this store more of an emergency supply to small project store, if you use them as supplier for say, building an addition or even a full house that could be on the pricy side but they do deliver materials at an extremely competitive rate so remember, get a quote on lumber. if you don't like the price, don't be a Karen and try to ruin a local company just because you don't agree with small insignificant things that don't matter. now if the location was absolutely in need of repairs and cleaning I'd post that but just because you may not like how the crew is or the pricing, that is yours to deal with because like myself, and a lot of other locals, we appreciate our local businesses and they have proved that they deserve our Business.”
“I have been to the Planters Exchange a few times. It is one of the most remarkable antique places to visit in Havana. It has a huge variety of consignment style areas to shop through, so what is offered depends on what the owner of various sections wants to unload. Prices range from quite reasonable to a bit alarming depending on who is selling what. The interior has a country charm to it and there is even a museum attached. It is definitely a place you can spend hours in looking around. Masks are required.”
