This is a wonderful store for everything Buffalo!…read more I was at Nickel City Designs for a fundraising party this evening. They kept the store open late for us, allowed us to bring vendors in, and were wonderful hosts. I totally recommend all organizations to work with them. I did all of my shopping with this store and crossed off so many people on my shopping list. They carry a large variety of Buffalo products from local artists. I especially loved the variety of Polish Buffalo products. I had to stop myself from purchasing the butter lamb pillow. If you're looking for unique gifts to get people for Christmas, this is definitely the place to go!

The young girl at the counter did not seem to care that they were losing a customer. If you say you're going do something before a certain date then you should do it. I went to customized tees in the galleria and they did it for me in less than an hour, and it was beautiful if you need a shirt go there. I was not nasty to your staff at all. I also did not storm in and demand a refund. You have cameras there, you should look at them.

After my third order being placed here, I can honestly say, this is the place to go to have shirts printed in Buffalo. Joe, who normally handles my orders, is awesome about getting your order done in a timely manner. I personally find it a bit frustrating and expensive ordering t-shirts online. This place gives a more personal, local touch to the whole thing. Definitely much cheaper than going through an online company.

Just back from picking up my first custom screen printing order by Positive Approach--and I…read morecouldn't be happier with the results! From our initial email consultation, through the quote process, to the pricing and quality of the final order, everything was spot on. The service was friendly and quick, everyone really seems to know their stuff, and their storefront is fresh and inviting with convenient hours (plus two nice dogs). I would definitely recommend them for custom printing--or you can just stop in and peruse a nice selection of their own beautifully designed merchandise. Excellent.

Ace Flag & Gifts is a shop you've probably driven by while whizzing down Transit Road and thought,…read moreI should pop in there some time. It is one of the most delightful places to experience if it's a flag, a flagpole or somewhat unusual gift you're looking for. There were themes nicely organized and clear pathways to peruse: ALL things Buffalo Bills (not just flags), floral, artsy looking flags, and naturally, American flags. Just look at the photos and you can see all sorts of interesting ideas for gift giving. Perhaps most impressive was the assistance we received from the friendly staff. Yes, you *could* go on amazon and get things, but there is actually knowledge behind the size of the flagpole relative to the flag you have, and things about their in-stock poles they could demonstrate. I learned the pole we bought has a feature that prevents the flag from wrapping around itself, and what the clip was for, etc. And there's something to be said for actually seeing and feeling the item before purchasing. The hours are rather limited, FYI, so be sure to check on that if you're heading over. Do check out Ace Flag & Gifts, it was a lot of fun.

When I have worked with them in the past for large orders, they are always done with a high quality and on time if not early. The attention to detail and the quality of service is second to none in the city. I also love being able to go in and get shirts printed individually and having a one off printed shirt when I don't need a bunch. The shop is so cool inside and they always have shirts on sale or marked down so the prices are really great. Half of my closet is random Buffalo shirts from PT. Whether you need one or 100 shirts, this is the only place to go in the city.

Prior to visiting their fun, intuitive, well laid out brick and mortar store, I placed a custom order involving prints of a personal photographs for a baby shower gift and they turned out beautifully! I found ordering online through their website portal as easy to use as the store layout. Owner and staff are funny and very helpful. Be sure to sign up for a loyalty card and earn as you spend. Love our shirts and can't wait to see the design ideas they roll out next!!!

You'll get a welcome reception walking in. They do plenty of custom work for t-shirts and things. But they also have plenty of interesting jewelry. I believe most locally made. They hold a variety of classes and you can test your "inner creative" here. If you need a creative gift this could be the place to find it. Then walk down and have a bite at Press.
