I'm boycotting this place…read more I was starving on my way home so I stopped here and picked up a hummus and pretzel pack- sweet! I handed the guy a ten and stood waiting for my change while chatting with my bf. I look back and see two quarters on the counter. The guy is counting ones for my change. I take the quarters thinking that it's part of my change. The guy freeaaks out and says, "That is not yours!" Me- "huh? I thought this was my change?" Guy- "No, that lady paid for her newspaper. I'm giving you your change!" Me (now offended)- "Well I didn't know that, I thought this was part of my change." Could have ended like that but the guy rolls his eyes to the other worker and says something under his breath. Me- "Don't make that face. Why the HELL would I want to steal 50 cents? Are you serious?" A couple of people (this is rush hour) are watching our exchange now and the guy tries to "right the situation" by saying "No, no, it's okay Miss. It's okay." W T F are you saying is okay??? Yeah, it's okay because I wasn't trying to get 50 cents off my hummus you overreacting weirdo! My BF pulled me away before I could say anything more but I should've just taken my 10 back and left his stupid hummus with the broken pretzels.

I forgot what the issue was, but she screamed at me because she thought I was a penny short. she is very poor with her mathematical skills and often yells for a younger guy if she doesn't know how to handle the customer. would never ever go back here again. I've even taken the train to the Hudson News at grand central (out of my way) to avoid going here.

Love this store! The staff is so friendly. There's so many magazines to choose from. From Fashion…read moreto Food, you'll find something new. The magazines aren't cheap, but worth it especially if you're looking for inspiration beyond online. They also had plenty of magazines with previous issues in stock, including The New Yorker. I had a great experience and will be back whenever I can.

I have thought of this business ever since I've come back in town from my NYC birthday trip. The…read morestaff was very helpful and I didn't feel rushed at all when browsing the selection of magazines in the store. The prices were reasonable, and the variety was even better. I even accidentally left my card in the store and the owners kept it safe until I returned to retrieve it. I will definitely be back when I'm back in NYC!

Terrible place for a passport picture. The lady was very nice but not helpful at all. I walked in…read moreand told the clerk I need to get a passport photo. The clerk directed to me to stand in front of the white background and with no warning began taking my photo. My hair was down covering my ears at this point and I know you must show your ears in passport photos, and neck above. I stopped her so I can brush my hair back.The photo was taken chest up. When I saw the picture from the camera, I advice her that the picture needs to be neck or shoulder up because it would be too far back. She said"no problem, I can crop it and it will be fine," and since I liked the picture anyway, I went along with it. She printed the photo, saw the photo, did some trimming, and put it in an envelope for me. I should've check the photo on my end before I left but I was running to the passport agency. When I got there, I found out the picture was blurry and basically I was not able to use the photo for my passport. The rest of my experience, you can imagine. No moral and values from staff at CJ Magazine. If you're trying to make a quick buck, that is not the way. Consumers will be willing to spend money in desperate situations but that is not the time to take advantage and screw people over. Update: I did get a new photo from another nearby deli and was able to get my passport the same day.

How often do you pick up a magazine, then have to put it back when you realize it's the Spanish…read moreversion, then have to put back the second magazine because it's the British version, before finally grabbing the US issue that you were looking for? Yeah, this is the kind of place where that happens all the time. What appears to be a basic convenience store is anything but. They have more magazines than any place I've ever been. It's nice to have around, for those random issues of random magazines that someone posted about on Facebook that you must buy. I have no doubt you'll find it here.
