Just like most chain stores Dick's has low prices on marginally name brand items. Dick's is a great place to get general sports gear, car/RV/family camping supplies, or hunting/fishing gear. But it is definately NOT a specialty shop! Try getting serious help with any camping gear (all I've really tried to do hear) and you don't get the details you need to make a good purchase.
Pros: Price
Cons: Quality, Product Knowledge, Selection
