Tack Box Saddlery & Apparel, Corvallis OR

Good selection of tack items and clothing, helpful staff, great service

Bad quality horse compost. Whoever manages the compost production is not using a good ratio of carbon to nitrogen. There are far too many wood chips and the compost is somewhere in between a mulch and a compost. Every garden where this compost was used has had complete stunting in plant growth. The management was also at times slightly rude and unhelpful. I cannot say I am surprised as their compost is one of the cheapest available, but the product could be better if more care was put into it. They were also unclear about their own products, and couldn’t give me specifics about what the horses ate, what they were medicated with, and the origins of their other composts such as their mint compost

Manager was rude to my wife so won't get any of our business. We were looking for 3 or 4 saddles and tach to go with. Plenty of other places to go.

If I could give zero stars I would. I am shocked with how extremely rude the owner is and I will be taking my business elsewhere. I have been in the store a few times to look at saddles and was told by two friendly cashiers that I could bring my horse to try on a few different saddles that I was interested in but that I needed to schedule a time because you park the trailer over at the barn, so I asked if I could do that and we said Monday and that I would get a call back from the owner as to what time I could come. I didn't hear back so I called in just to see if today would work as I am pretty flexible and could have come in several days this week. The owner answered the phone (I have never spoken with him before) and was extremely rude right off the bat, cutting me off, and telling me that it was completely unreasonable to even think that today would work. I felt very attacked when all he could have said was "hey today actually won't work, sorry for not calling you back as I've been super busy, can we schedule a different day" and I would have said that was totally fine and what day would work for him. Instead he just chewed me out like I was stupid and that today was a terrible day and acted like I was forcing him to bring the horse in today and would hardly let me get a full sentence out before chewing me out again. I told him he was being rude and he said he didn't want my business anyways. I am in shock that a business owner could be that rude. If you don't want people scheduling to bring their horses in to try on saddles, don't make it sound like something you do. I just can't believe how badly he treated me. I will take my business elsewhere.

Needed a pair of black dress boots for a funeral, and this store had just what I was looking for. Nice selection of boots, tack, and accessories and friendly, helpful staff. Easy parking right off hwy 34.

I was happy with my purchase. I wear a huge sized shoe, so glad to find a comfortable pair.
