I called a few weeks ago and spoke with a man at the store. I told him my Samsung Galaxy S 6 had a problem with either the port or the battery. He scheduled a time for me to come in to get the battery replaced. I come in on a Friday and, when I get there they check out the phone and determine the charging port is bad. They dont have any in stock so I have wasted 50 minutes round trip. I am aggravated that the person I spoke with was not proactive enough to make sure the ports were in stock but I figure I shouldnt have relied on them. I should have asked. I wait a few weeks getting by with just the wireless charger and schedule another appointment on line. I write in the comments on line that I need both the port and the battery as swapping out the port is not one of the services available to set up on line. I call a few minutes later and tell the person who answers when I am coming in and that I need both the port and a battery. I make sure they have the port in stock. This is a Tuesday. I come in today, Thursday 7/20 to drop off the phone. They inform me that a few days ago they decided they will no longer replace the charging port in store because their technicians dont seem to be able to do it without breaking the screens which they then have to replace on their dime. They want to send my phone to Wisconsin and leave me without my cellphone for 5 days. Now mind you they advertise and I scheduled in store service. So if you want a store that is cavalier about your time, whose technicians are too incompetent to repair a phone without breaking it, and dont contact you to tell you that the in store service you scheduled is no longer in store despite you having an appointment this is just the place for you. Because hey, you dont need your cell phone for the next 5 days, right?

Purchased a cell phone battery. Asked if I wanted a recipt, i asked if I needed one, he said, no, its in the computer. Well, the battery is lousy, lasts about 8 to 10 hrs, just a touch more than the 3 year old one. Its a Rayovac, not OEM. When i asked about returning it, was told it was over 2 weeks and they wont. Said he never said that when I bought it, their reply was its on the back of the invoice. I said they told me I didnt need the invoice, didnt give me one so I had no idea it was only a 2 week exchange. He says, well, its all over the store. I went back and looked, one small sign that is not very noticable. I could have bough the battery for 21.00 at cell phones and more, they were out till monday, I should have waited. I paid over 40.00 for this crap Ray O Vac. Every day at 6:00 i am annoyed that my battery is about dead. I also could have bought a new OEM samsung online, delivered for under 10.00. Tried to buy local... Wont shop there again

I was on the road visiting my family and realized that I forgot my lap top charger. I showed up at the Batteries and Blubs AFTER they had closed but the owner let me in and then patiently assisted me in determining the specifications of the charger I needed and then we completed the sale even though his systems had been shut down for the day. It was a real life saver for me as I had to do a lot of work during this visit and losing the charge on my laptop would have been disastrous. I cannot thank Batteries and Bulbs enough and highly recommend this knowledgeable and customer friendly establishment to anyone!

Wow, if you are in need of an older cell phone battery, say for a Samsung Galaxy S3, they most likely will have that in stock. Here, I had been calling all around for an extra cell phone battery and every cell phone store I talk to said my best bet is to order online. However, I needed one as soon as possible. Batteries Plus Blubs saved the day! Call them and see if they have what you need!!!

Met with Anthony on 8/2 because I thought my cell phone battery died. He checked and it did hold a charge with Batteries Plus equipment. Turned out all I needed was a new charger! Very grateful that he checked it out and the problem resolved. Will definitely return to Batteries Plus for any future business! Very friendly and professional.

Great experience went in there thinking I needed a new charging port,screen and home button come to find out the charging port was just dirty so they cleaned it up saved me a couple dollars then replaced my screen and went out of their way to get a home button at another location A++ Will do business with again!

I stopped in for a powerwheels battery for my kids toy, picked up a watch battery, and one for my digital camera.....I could not believe someone would have a store just for batteries in Pittsburgh. ...cool.

Replaced the battery in my car key. Super fast and professional service, and reasonably priced!
