“Incredibly wonderful staff: All super friendly and honest, supportive, helpful individuals. Wonderful and easygoing employees with plenty of high-value background in what they sell. This is the ideal place to donate electronics and get a little money in return. No need to recycle perfectly good electronics when you can bring it here for extra pocket cash instead.”
“I usually like to steer clear of rent to own furniture stores due to my terrible experience with the “other guys” but Alyssa made this experience extremely comforting. She was upfront, honest, and extremely accommodating. My current work schedule is extremely hectic but she made everything super easy by doing everything over the phone with no need for me to come into the store. She was informative the entire time and worked around my work schedule to have the items delivered on my day off.
The items were delivered on time and assembly was super quick.
10/10 experience.”
“5G Store is the best!
I have been a customer since 2021. I choose 5G Store very time that I need the type of gear that they sell. The reason is simple: 'Stuff happens' ... and when it does, every single time, 5G Store has been there supporting me. Even when a product is out of warranty. Even when another product 'might' be conflicting with their product, they don't blindly pass the buck, they roll up their sleeves and help. Oh, and their tech support is USA based. A great group of guys. Maybe, maybe, if you search around the internet you might, maybe, find an item for slightly less - but don't be short sighted because 'stuff happens' and 5G Store tech support will be there for you. I wish I could give them 10 stars!”
“Anna & Amber have the best customer service any store could ask for. I’ve been to a few different EZ Pawns and this is my favorite location because of these to. I highly recommend you coming to this location and trust me these 2 women will answer all the questions you have and with a smile on their face. 10 OUT OF 10 to these two and this location.”
“Thank you Brian ( the owner) for a wonderful experience at your store. Super friendly staff ( and dog) …. Terrific service and awesome inventory of cool items.. LOTS OF STUFF!!
Fair prices and knowledgeable appraisals.
Highly recommended ?”
“We went to Grand Appliance for the first time to look at washer and dryers. We were met by salesman Don Von Ebers he was very helpful in showing us all the different brands. Very friendly and made it easy to choose new washer dryer and help with setting up delivery and install. Would recommend Grand and DON TO EVERYONE ! Tom and Cathy”
“We were there this afternoon. JD did an amazing job. I believe that's his name. We went in there to get a phone case. Then we decided to go with a screen protector. He made sure he explained the plan that if we had the screen protector if we paid for the insurance on the phone then it would be covered for free however we had not. He was very informative. Made sure that we were informed with everything that he was selling us explained everything put the screen protector on and did an amazing job. We live in Wauconda the store in Wauconda no longer exist. We went down there and then again when to above & beyond.. Thank you guys. We found our new store..”

“I can’t say enough great things about this pawn shop! I can honestly say the experience has always been nothing short of amazing. From day one, I’ve been treated with genuine respect, kindness, and dignity — something that is unfortunately hard to find in this industry.
I’ve visited other pawn shops in the area, and the difference is night and day. Where others can feel cold, dismissive, or even judgmental, this place consistently makes you feel welcomed, valued, and understood. No matter the situation, they take the time to listen, explain things clearly, and work with you in a way that feels fair and honest.
It’s rare to find a business that not only provides a service but truly cares about the people walking through the door. That’s exactly what sets this shop apart. Their professionalism, integrity, and compassion keep us coming back every time.
If you’re looking for a place where you’ll be treated like a person—not just a transaction—this is it. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a trustworthy and respectful experience.”
“Today we got really lucky and received help from Ivan N. We just made the switch to T - Mobile, two new phones and internet service, we’re a little older and not very high tech and Ivan got us up and running in no time. I can’t say enough about how patient, kind and courteous Ivan was, he also took his time and walked us step by step through the internet router installation process, when we got home we did everything he said and we were good to go in just a few minutes, what a nice kid, smart too. NICE JOB IVAN and THANK YOU! 👍”
“I’ve been having issues with sending messages, spent over 3 hours with customer service and they could not help. I went to this store and this guy Witek fixed it in less than 5 min. Thank you so much”
“Last two poor reviews (from the same person) of Pete are false regarding “Jim” They don’t even make sense. “Zaolin Co” what?! The proof was in the YouTube video. & the dozens of comments below named your tire shop as scammers. Here’s a 5 star honest review of the trading post. Love your store and your YouTube channel Pete and I’m a customer of yours so this review is legit. Cheers.”

“My son’s phone was stolen while on vacation and it was quite a mess. When we got back, we came to this store and Wes was amazing at letting us know all the options available, getting the phone replaced, and restoring the data from his stolen phone. He turned a bad situation around into a good experience. I’m grateful for the support he gave us.”
“We started shopping at target exclusively six months ago or so and couldn’t believe how much better they are on quality and price. They curate their products very well so it’s easy to make a choice as to what to buy. Good and gather brand eggs are $1.69 a dozen! And they taste great! If you have been wondering like us why eggs elsewhere taste really weird and disgusting, you’re not alone. If target keeps doing things this way, we will be customers for life. We save tons of money and find everything we are looking for 99% of the time. Once in awhile they are sold out of things we like but it’s not too often and we don’t like shopping elsewhere. I have noticed the crystal lake target getting busier each time we go there so I know we aren’t alone. In not sure why other stores aren’t as good as target but they should observe how it’s done at target. Couldn’t be happier with the products, prices and people there. Someone knows what they are doing and is doing it very well.”
“Ayman was great to work with—super chill, friendly, and made the whole process easy and comfortable from start to finish. Really personable guy and you can tell he genuinely cares about helping people out. Definitely appreciate the help, Ayman!”
“Brock was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Very friendly, patient and understanding helping me (a Sr Citizen).
I'm here visiting Illinois from Arizona & was having issues with my Motorola phone.
He assisted me with my current phone's issues, helped me change my service from Metro to T-Mobile and order a new phone shipped to my vacation home in Illinois.”

“Had a phone issue and they helped us get it fixed. The people are no-nonsense, professional and very helpful. T-Mobile is also just cheaper around here and I highly recommend you checking them out if you need a new phone or provider. (also to add, I don't do reviews often at all, This should be telling.)”
“shout out to Mary at the T-Mobile in Crystal Lake. If you have any problems with your phone, she’s the one to fix it believe me she knows what she’s doing. Thanks, Mary.”

“Chicago Audio and Video Design have been AMAZING in helping me get set up for the opening of my Caffe! They were always on time and they went out of their way to make sure that I was happy. I have had them out here several times and have never had an issue with them. They even swung by to check on us while working at another shop nearby! Nick, Kleat and Lucas exceeded my expectations as far as customer service and work ethic. I will never use another audio/visual company. I would suggest them 100%!!!!!!!”
“The people at the store were all great.The one I worked with very very polite and knowledgeable. I couldn't have asked for better.The manager also very nice and made sure everyone was happy.”
“The service here at target was amazing. Employee named Nick and Hannah their customer service was at the top level. Very helpful and kind. Target will be my forever fav place to shop.”
“Called to inquire about remote car starters. Gentleman on the phone was very polite. When I asked for prices, he even suggested getting that product at another local store cause it was on sale much cheaper then normal price.”
“The line for Pokemon card industry has been so disorderly and unprofessional, so I picked a new location, the Crystal Lake Best Buy. It is running so perfectly under the guidance of the GM Brandie. My son could not be happier.”
“The staff here is super friendly and they know all of their “regulars”! I’m not a “regular” but I could see the way the cashiers interacted with their customers and it’s a special bond. We had a quick visit on Saturday, April 19, 2025 but super pleasant. I won’t forget my visit in 2024 when they made a pizza slice for me in just TWO MINUTES. Very impressive! (Written 4-26-25)”
