They make it easy to email or upload files so there's no need to go in until the print is completed. A couple times I wasn't happy with how the color turned out and they adjusted it and made me another print at no charge. Gwen has helped me several times with my order and has always been very helpful. They are also reasonably priced, and conveniently have a parking lot in front of the store. Highly recommend!

The LA Times are ok on certain days (mainly the weekends). After we cancelled they called a few…read moretimes to join again for a reduced price and we said no and was lucky they didn't keep calling. The people at the stores that try to get subscriptions are mainly nice. Ran into a few that tried to sell us the paper and we said no and totally understood.

They stopped it years and years ago with people.

I pay for 12 copies a month, and only ever receive 4.

And the paper is not redelivered, and the following Sunday I have no paper. The NYT is apparently trying to get their subscribers to stop ordering a hard copy of the Times and go digital, but they're not being honest about it. They don't even deserve one star.

They've also printed a few pictures for me that needed to be on special paper. Everyone who helped me was incredibly helpful and patient. I had a project a few months back that needed to be printed on thicker paper, but I didn't know what it was called. I did my best to explain the type paper/material I wanted and they understood exactly what I needed. They even did measurements for me - I wanted the photo to look like a photo booth print, just bigger. It came out perfect!
