Brought my skates in to get resharpened after being completely fubar at Sportcheck in Welland. The girl in there was extremely knowledgeable as well as friendly. She fixed them up to my expectations and cost me half what sportcheck charged (after 7 pm special) We went on talking about my interest in getting a new pair soon and she took the time to find a decent deal I. The Thorold store. Unfortunately they did not have my size but did find me something reasonably priced that was to my liking. All around pleasant experience!
