The only reason I ventured out this far to this Staples was because the Amazon returns were down at…read morethe one on Northern Boulevard. I decided to just drive to the next nearest one which was this location - but the parking situation here is really difficult to navigate. It's situated on a street that's surrounded by a lot of one way streets - plus one side of the parking lot is totally blocked off, so that was unfortunate. Once I walked in I noticed the for returns was incredibly long - I guess everyone was here trying to do the same thing and make returns after the holidays. Eventually after 20 minutes or so of waiting a few more people jumped behind the return line to help out, and it moved a bit faster. Not sure I'd come back to this location again unless the Amazon returns kiosk breaks again over by me.

There was NO line at Staples, and the return desk is on the first floor. Easy-peasy! No box or label needed, either. Just the QR code. You also get a coupon, although I didn't have time to browse. Not sure if they have 3.5 mm audio cables, which I do need. Anyway, even though the UPS store is closer, Staples was MUCH faster. Bonus: more exercise walking from the apt. Definitely recommend for returns, maybe printer paper too. Think their prices are fair. HP ink is a giant ripoff everywhere.

The manager helped me hone in on a vintage '80's indigo pad. Looks so much better that your standard, big box store options. (Although they have those too.) Was already in a condition that looked new. He also inspected it, and made sure it was freshened up. So, it really popped. They also have all the Pentel's--picked up one of those. As well as, a wide selection of pencils, pens, fountain pens, stationary, ledgers, printer toner, other printer needs, and many other treasures. Classic Manhattan store, in a great location in the Diamond District. I will definitely come again.

Although he admitted he wasn't Orlando. (Haha) I definitely understand the four stars. I'm sure if I lived closer I would give him my business! I was definitely tempted by the candy counter.

Bonus: They also coordinate with shipping services for pickup in their store. In my case, I opted to walk the one-block to a nearby FedEx as I had a next day by 12 pm delivery deadline. That meant that my presentation had to be in FedEx's hands ready to go (packaged, addressed & paid for) no later than 5 pm the day before for overnight delivery. It was 4 pm. Mission accomplished thanks to Copyland.
