Aaron's Rentals ripoff About Aarons you can get the same stuff in a department store 3 times cheaper then you can at Aarons Ohio Michigan
Ok I see alot of people complaining about Aarons. First of all, I will say I work for Aarons, but not for too much longer, I am trying not to let on to where I am from just in case mainly I do not want to lose my job till I find one, money issues, please understand that.
I seen a lot of used stuff going out as "New" and that is no lie. If you guys think that has happened to you, it probably has. We had a few items come back infested with roaches and then they infested the entire store, in the TV's in the couches all over. And they really do not care to do anything about it.
Second, a lot of our customers are economically challenged, and the ones I work with refer them as "the Filth" or the losers. I will tell you all this much, you can get the same stuff in a department store 3 times cheaper then you can at Aarons and it is quite sad.
Plus females are not given much respect by them due to the fact that some are not pretty enough to work there. the entire chain is quite full of it.
So people, do not stop fighting Aaron's rentals. As a employee, I understand totally what you are saying. Good Luck

It sounds like the conditions at your location are rather sad. "Pre-leased" merchandise should NEVER go out as new. From my experience with Aaron's it sounds like your problem is with the management and not Aaron's the company.
As far as prices go...
Aaron's is competitivly priced with cash prices. Total cost of ownership and cash price are two, totally different things. When merchandise is on lease agreement the cost is meant to be compared to other "rent to own" competitors and not "department store" prices. If you "do the math" Aaron's does come out better than "brand x"
