It feels like most places have forgotten the lost art of "customer service", which to me, really just means showing deep care for your customers. Rose was absolutely AMAZING.

She didn't rush me or get frustrated when I asked for something 10 different ways. It was refreshing to feel like someone still really loved their work and loved helping people. Thank you Cheap Pete's! Not only is your service amazing, but the quality of everything I've done here has been outstanding. Super appreciate that people like this still exist.

He is friendly, knowledgeable, and he quoted me a very fair price for the services I needed to be done. Before coming to this shop I was doing some research and had called John and a few other businesses to inquire about engraving services that I needed for 6 gold compact mirrors I wanted to be personalized with names for my maid of honor, bridesmaids, and myself. I visited All Star Awards last Monday where John and I spent about 10 minutes discussing specific details such as font, size, and placement of the names, and pricing. However, I ended up leaving to my car to compare my options. I have never had anything personally engraved before and had no idea that coating and material of the product can affect the quality of the engraving, but I decided to take my chance with John because he was very knowledgeable and took the time to explain the process to me. On Friday that same week, he called me back and told me my mirrors were ready to be picked up! I was surprised at the quick turnover and I told John that I wanted to pick them up right after finishing work in the city at 4:00 because I'll be proposing to my MOH this weekend regardless of whether or not I receive the mirrors. However, I'd be arriving late due to traffic (He closes at 5pm and he's closed on the weekends). He told me not to worry and that he'll wait for me. I ended up leaving at 4:20 and driving there took about an hour. When I arrived, he presented me with the finished compact mirrors and they were exactly what I had envisioned!! They were so beautiful and I am so glad I decided to get one engraved for myself too! I recommend this business to anyone that needs a personalized gift and I'll definitely be coming back in the future to have more gifts engraved! Thank you so much, John!

While this whole process took a bit of time, I fortunately wasn't in a rush. Prices weren't cheap, but I didn't think they were exorbitant either. I feel like this is definitely your local mom & pop sports/trophy shop. If you're looking for Kinko's-like service and delivery, you may not get it here. But you'll get a guy who knows his stuff and will work hard for you.
