I have been a customer of ASU Surplus for over 5 years. I go every once in a while to see what they have.
On a recent visit (9/18/2013) we found a few small office supplies. They are usually "hit or miss" but sometimes you can find magazine holders, etc. I found 2 matching chairs that I purchased for my teenaged sons gaming area. The chairs were cumbersome and a bit heavy but I managed to sort of stack them and get them to the pay window.
They have a new cashier here. She is "all business" and not very friendly.
All of the employees were sitting in the office. It is the only place that has A/C in the building. When I was done paying for all of my items, I asked her if she could have one of the guys help me put the chairs in my car. She said that I was welcome to use one of their carts.
I told her that I had always received help in the past. (I have purchased over 10 chairs; 3 desks; a table; 5 or more computers and dozens of office supplies from ASU Surplus in the past.)
I noticed the oldest guy in the office kind of making a face. Then he and a tall, younger guy came out (sort of abruptly) and grabbed my chairs. Right away they said, where's your vehicle? or something like that. They rushed to put the chairs in the back of my suv, I said thanks, they seemed "put out" like I was cutting into their day.
I guess if I decide to go back....I will have to bring a couple of movers with me???
