I contacted United Pack N Ship to ship out some small glass items from an auction. The shipping…read morecharge was $200 to ship eight small pieces of glass. They insisted it had to be shipped double boxed, else I could not insure it. OK, not much choice, so I used them. I received the packages, and each and every piece was double boxed. That's not exactly what the UPS guidelines are stating, all of the items could've been well packed and placed in one box, and that ONE box doubled boxed. That would've cut the cost considerably. Well to make matters worse, I received the packages AND THEY SHIPPED ME THE WRONG ITEMS!!! When I contacted them about their error, this was the response I received: ========================================================== Please contact Fontaine's. These are the pieces that we received. This is why the shipping costs what it does. --- Shane Cassavant United Pack N Ship 12 Plastics Ave. Pittsfield, MA 01201 scassavant@unitedpacknship.com ========================================================== IF YOU'RE GOING TO OVERCHARGE AND OVER PACK FOR SHIPPING AND PICKUP, YOU THE SHIPPING AGENT ARE RESPONSIBLE TO VERIFY THAT YOU'RE PICKING UP AND SHIPPING ME THE CORRECT ITEMS, NOT PASSING THE BUCK TO THE AUCTION HOUSE!!! I had to waste my time and repack the wrong items they sent me and ship them back to them without so much as an apology for their error.

My review for Mad Macs is long overdue. I had a crazy incident as a young college student back in…read more2001 that left my brand new iMac completely destroyed, and I couldn't afford to replace it. (The one I had was purchased with credit and I was already paying monthly for it)! I took it into Mad Macs with no hope that anything could be done. Since it was still under warranty, the man who helped me said that he could replace the motherboard and other fried parts for me, and that act of kindness saved my life. I still think about it every now and again, which is why I'm leaving this review. Because of his kindness, I was able to do all my schoolwork in the coming years, and I did not have to go into more debt by replacing it. Mad Macs repair man from 25 years ago... you're a real one.

I had the best experience buying jewelry today! Kendel immediately greeted me and asked if I was…read morelooking for anything specific, though she didn't jump down my throat like other places so. I told her I was browsing, but thank you. She did not hover nor follow me around, giving me the idea that she was just trying to make a sale. I had some questions and she knew exactly what I was talking about. I recently lost some weight and wanted a ring to put on my ring finger while trying to figure out what I'll end up doing with my wedding band. She offered me many affordable solutions and took plenty of time to bring out trays of rings until I found the right one. I definitely did not want to spend a lot of money and was very clear on that and she was so respectful of this. I was amazed. I've never had such a comfortable experience while looking at fine jewelry. They have a customer for life now. I will never go anywhere else! And I'll be telling all my friends and family. Hannoush lucked out with having kendel as an employee. I will always seek her out (though the other employees were very friendly). It was a nice surprise today. Thank you, Kendel. I hope they appreciate you as much as I did!

I'll defend my one-star review of this business by drawing a comparison between two shippers: One…read morein Los Angeles, 5,700 km from my location, and Custom Pack & Ship, which is a day's drive from my location. I had recently made purchases of identical items in Los Angeles, and in Pittsfield, MA. To collect and ship one of the items I purchased that was located in Los Angeles 5,700 km from my location, I was charged $289US by the UPS store. Custom Pack & Ship charged me $575US to collect and ship an identical item located in Pittsfield, and send it to my location that is less than 500km away. Unfortunately, due to the dearth of alternatives in Pittsfield, I had no other option to exercise. It goes without saying that I will no longer be making any purchases of any kind in Pittsfield.
