cstmg8 Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 I prob missed something around here, but anyone know why Jegs closed in Reynoldsburg? New location or downsize? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Cranium Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 I assume downsize since the one on the west side closed a couple years back. I hate having to drive up to the 11th ave store, but I guess it beats driving all the way to Delaware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboNova Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 mail order killing their retail business... when it ships free most people dont want to waste a trip to the store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstmg8 Posted May 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 True, but I like going in to the store because they'll beat any online price. Usually end with a good price, and somewhere easy to return with any issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POS VETT Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 They'll do that online too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 True, but I like going in to the store because they'll beat any online price. Usually end with a good price, and somewhere easy to return with any issues. and here you have it. Can't make up for overhead of a store and employees selling everything at rock bottom pricing. The store has been closed for a few months now, and I guess reynoldsburg police have been pushing the few old guys that used to hang out down there on friday/saturday nights out. It's a change I didn't like, but what can you do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboNova Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 I now love ordering online... Free ship to your door next day Still can price match and/or get my racer discount. So it's fine by me, if I need something same day I roll up to 11th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty2Hotty Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 If they offered installation on the parts they sold, a physical retail channel would probably make sense. I did some time @ Jeg's retail, and I'll say the mail order was super busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
408 on a budget Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 Well that sucks, that will add another 30 min to the drive if I want to hit the store. Im already 2hrs away, guess I wont be visiting jegs any time soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least there you can be guaranteed it'll be in stock...whatever you need! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmwohio Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 Yes, the store on Summit street is their only 'brick and mortar' store now.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBQdDude Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 I guess reynoldsburg police have been pushing the few old guys that used to hang out down there on friday/saturday nights out. It's a change I didn't like, but what can you do? GTFO? Really? Way to go . I was wondering why I didn't see the normal crowd out there.
