I know they can paint match and have picked up small bottles and cans for small projects. This a great neighborhood spot and I stop in often.

What I was most impressed by was that the sales associate, who greeted me immediately upon entry, really listened to & attempted to solve the problem. I have to admit that Home Depot is my go-to, just because they have such a large inventory, but that large inventory is a double-edged sword. More often than not, I find that the sales associates are not cross-trained so, if the product or solution you're looking for is not in the section they have been trained to oversee, you're left with the options of seeking out sales associates in different departments to tell your tale of woe multiple times or assume they don't carry what you need & leave. All this to say, my visit to Blaustein's was a great reminder of the value of one's neighborhood hardware store.

No. That's Greenwich Locksmiths on 7th Ave S) and said there was no way the key didn't work. It didn't.

Until today. That guy is THE WORST. Everyone in the neighborhood talks about how much he sucks and that we all walk the extra block to Garber, but man I forgot how much I hate that guy until I ran in today. Do not shop here. They're horrible people and it's way more expensive than the good hardware stores. (Also their address is wrong. Presumably to confuse people who want to write bad reviews. It's on 9th Ave just south of 25th.)
