Telefoonstad was super easy to find in the middle of De Pijp and I stopped by a week ago to ask for their pricing. €35 for a battery change, and it would take about half an hour, they said. As I was in a rush I told them thanks and that I'd stop by another time. I went there this afternoon, left my phone there for about an hour and a half before returning to pick it up and pay the small fee. It was slightly inconvenient that it had to take such a long time compared to what I had been told last week, but I understand that the amount of customers they have from day to day varies. As I picked my phone up they also told me they had replaced my screen protector which is two years old already, at no extra cost. That was a very cool thing of them to do, I think. There's an air bubble stuck in between the screen and the protector that's pretty annoying, but I guess that's not really a thing to complain about as it was all done for free (or included in the price I paid, perhaps). All in all a pretty good place to fix your phone that I would recommend to friends as well.

I would say that these guys are pretty good. I've taken my car there so far for 2 APKs and…read morerecently today for a repair. While this place is not cheap, I feel like they are honest and are not trying to rip you off (although you never know I suppose). This place is right next to were I work and when and I had an appointment this morning. When I tried to drive my car over it stalled right in the driveway of my work's parking lot! I walked over to tell them that I was going to be late because I needed to figure out how to get my car there. They road over and towed my car for me right away. Was an unexpected surprise. They always call if they have to do something to your car that is going to cost more money and I feel like they don't pressure you into accepting it. Also if you work for PPG you get a discount.

I guess that price-wise he is in the range of the other wasserette in town, but I know that if I bring our stuff to wash by 13, it will be washed and folded and ready by 18:30 on the same day. Ashfaq folds everything with great care.

Couldn't tell you if the work is good because I never got to try it. Can only recommend this place…read moreif you are familiar with Arabic language and culture and you like to haggle half a day just to get a few items sewn for $70-125 that could probably cost you 10 Euros-45 Euros and less time elsewhere. The guy who helped me at the desk seemed to have some idea of how to pin clothing but we had a language barrier and even though I tried hard to understand it kept feeling like he just wanted to shake me down for $70-$125 on what should have cost a LOT less money by trying to get me to do more alterations than needed. The longer the conversation went on the more pushy It felt - like I was on a used car sales lot. He offered me Turkish tea which I politely declined. Dude, I'm just trying to get some simple clothing alterations done quickly at a local business for a reasonable price and I have other errands to do today. I'm not trying to have a deep meaningful relationship with an unknown man who overcharges me and keeps me in the store for too long. After I agreed to his inflated price of $70 anyway (it was very cold out, the store looks nice inside, and I didn't know where else nearby to go) I handed him my card to pay and he tells me he only takes cash. NO CARD. He wanted to keep all my things and have me "come back later with the cash" or "go to the ATM next door and get cash." He also wanted payment up front. Most don't ask for payment until delivery. Then he asked if I had Tikkie I could pay him with which is a Dutch app that nobody outside the Netherlands uses. (It's like Dutch Venmo.) I tried explaining to him that I don't have it because nobody outside of the Netherlands uses it. He didn't seem to get this and called a lady from back to help him who he said spoke better English. She just looked annoyed, like he had dragged her into this sort of situation a lot, and she wasn't able to help or take a debit or credit card either. I told her that the whole thing had just started to feel too weird for me so I wanted my things back and to leave. God bless anyone coming in here alone without strong boundaries. AVOID unless you know middle eastern culture/language well, you enjoy spending a lot of time haggling, and you only want to pay cash up front - THEN maybe this place can work for you. The last straw for me was the weirdness about cash only and the shift to pushy vibes (after being initially friendly) with trying to get me to go to the ATM next door to withdraw cash and pay upfront. I'm thinking they must have had a change of ownership in the 5-10 years since the 2 positive reviews here were posted.

Your donation will support an unprecedented international collaborative effort that establishes teams of the brightest prostate and testicular cancer researchers from around the globe working together to accelerate outcomes for men diagnosed and living with cancer. Funds raised in Netherlands are spent in Netherlands. Recent grants include Professor Chris Bangma, Head of Urology at Erasmus who is leading the GAP project on Active Surveillance, which aims to optimise the management of men diagnosed with low-risk prostate cancer an reduce the side effects of over treatment. Other grants include Professor Jack Schalken from Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Centre, and Professor Guido Jenster who are taking part in the GAP project on prostate cancer biomarkers, which aims to develop better tests that more accurately distinguish between low-risk and aggressive forms of prostate cancer by examining biomarkers in blood, urine and tissue.

Zij maken deel uit van het GAP-project dat zich buigt over prostaatkanker biomarkers. Ze proberen betere testen te ontwikkelen die preciezer een verschil kunnen maken tussen lage risico vormen van prostaatkanker en agressieve vormen. Dit doen ze door biomarkers in het bloed, urine en weefsel te onderzoeken.
