My parents shipped 9 boxes back to Atlanta. Only 7 of them arrived, one of them delayed. UPS…read morerequires the shipper to start an investigation/claim. Patrick claims he did this and I waited patiently to hear the results of the investigation. I periodically called and emailed to get updates, but he stopped responding. As I looked into it more myself, I am now past the 60 day limit where UPS will give refunds. So my parents have neither their missing items or compensation. Use a different company to ship your items!!!

It's obvious the owner has a primary business elsewhere, and this is not it. Please - sell it to someone who will take this town's needs seriously.

After about 10 minutes of looking i ended up asking for help, I asked him a question and he said he had no clue what i was talking about. Uh, you work on an art store, how do you not know. He was extremely short with my husband and I then says "he had to go to the bathroom so we need to wrap it up". We were caught off guard and said okay. I paid for the two pens i had in my hand and we left. As we walked out he stood there and watched us walk down the street. Extremely odd. I guess we will be shopping online unfortunately.

Told me I could try a color and when I didnt like it he overcharged me for the materials. Tried to lie about it. Very unprofessional.

We made a special trip to this gallery because a friend had a show there. We called ahead and spoke…read morewith a nice person (who we later determined was Michael). He verified that our friend's show was still going to be up (we were visiting on the show's final day). Well, do you like black and white photography? Then this is the gallery for you! It's clear as soon as you step in the door how dedicated LightBox is to excellence. It is quiet like a church and gives off a completely "serene" vibe. You feel like you can take all the time you want to look at each piece. No one is going to hurry you or disturb you. When Michael noticed how interested we were he gave us an impromptu viewing of some of the additionally exciting work in the flat file upstairs. Just a completely first-rate experience.

They advertise on the sign selling film, and when asked he only had one option which was 20+year…read moreexpired film and he only sold it in a package of 5. I asked him if he had photos proving it was good, which he dodged and closely explained it was amazing, then I asked again which he laughed and said no. I'm not going to buy 50$+ dollars worth of expired film with no proof it's good. Plus, when asked why he doesn't actually sell film he went on a rant why film has gone up and he refuses to sell it which I thought was odd as he advertises it and if sold he technically wouldn't be loosing money. I then asked where I could get it and he said no where and he doubted stores would have it on this part of the coast. I called Walgreens and Walmart nearby who both carried it, which I drove 7 mins down the road and picked up. It was 12$. It disappointed me I couldn't just pick up at the only camera store in Astoria. Weird hill to die on that he wouldn't carry something that's advertised ON HIS SIGN. Dude had hovering energy and followed me out the store ranting.

I have been using Robin & Vanessa's mail package drop-off service for several years. Their main…read moregoal is to provide quality service at the lowest cost to the customer. I drop off all my used shipping boxes which are recycled back into the business. These boxes and packing materials are then used to provide excellent packing services free of charge. Robin knows how to pack, so the most odd sized and delicate object reaches its destination in perfect condition. They always give the best carrier options based upon the customers needs. They are also able to provide finger-printing, Notary, and PO Box services. They ship via USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DSL. If you need a receiving drop-off point, they are happy to accommodate. I believe they are a true gem in the Mail and shipping business!!

But the folks who work here are total gems. Everyone is so nice and patient and personable. The place is efficiently run. Also, if you like seagulls, this is the place to see them. They're all over trying to grab a morsel from the trash. Decent prices. If you're a Recology garbage pick up customer, you get two free dumps per quarter, I believe. I took lots of trips here this summer dumping loads of sod from a yard project.

I've been a customer for 6mos now, and this is by far the best waste management company I've ever…read moreworked with. Rates are reasonable. I can hardly believe what a terrific operation they have here. Waste pickup service is very good; you get 4 cans: Recycle, Glass, Yard Debris, and of course 'garbage'. I've noted their drivers are careful and good at their jobs. A great perk of being an Astoria customer is they send you a window sticker that lets you go in and drop off consumer volumes of yard debris at this collection facility. We've dropped off dead appliances here as well for a fee. I've noted there is a standalone hazardous waste building as well, not sure of its time/availability. Terriific service with a wave and a smile here. Believe it or not, their website does not provide the address nor a map of where this is! I'd say their IT dept needs some help.
