Description
The Electrical & Plumbing Store opened its doors at 1080 Ogilvie Road in 1980. Originally a small electrical wholesale operation that stocked a few chandeliers and table lamps for its contractor clientele, the store expanded throughout the decade and, in 1991, added plumbing fixtures and materials to its broad selection of lighting and electrical items.<br/><br/>Source: official Website

Indifferent attitude: We stopped here to shop for a new kitchen faucet. After seeing a model we liked, we did some internet research and found the exact same model online at HomeDepot.ca for $150 less. I understand that big box stores buy in huge volume and that local merchants have smaller margins and higher relative overhead, so I was willing to negotiate bearing those realities in mind. The employee at the store offered a $50 reduction and acted insulted that we even had the audacity to ask. He then proceeded to say that online shopping was unreliable, there was no service, etc.etc. True, perhaps, but $100 is $100. I asked to split the difference and he said no, and at this point became somewhat ignorant. We ended up picking up the same item at a local Home Depot for over $100 less. I would shop around and compare before deciding on this establishment.
