One of our most recent print jobs was for 200 promotional brochures. We submitted our print job on a Monday afternoon, and picked it up on Tuesday morning.

My wife and I have visited Burlington once or twice a year for the past eight years, and Silver…read moreMaple has always been a destination; we enjoy the unique art available there and love the mounting. Don't, however, go there expecting any good service. Our last experience (the morning of October 13, 2012) was the worst. We entered the store a little before noon. The person on duty, a maturing man, was speaking with a friend and did not acknowledge us at all. Even signaling for help got us no attention; apparently his discussion of "Our Bodies, Ourselves" was more important than attending a customer with cash in hand. After his friend left, the man on duty still did not acknowledge my wife or I. Instead, he decided it would be best to neaten up the shelves, pushing me out of his way to get to postcards that needed straightening, apparently. I honestly felt like I was being treated like a potential thief. In case anyone is wondering, no, we were not unkempt in appearance. We were dressed very nicely for a day on the town in celebration of our anniversary. Frustrated, I was ready to walk out of the store. My wife, who wanted some information on a painting, tried to talk to the man on duty. He ignored her and called a friend - NOT a call to a customer, but a personal call - to ask how they were holding up after last night because they hit the sangria hard. Honestly, this experience has pretty much soured me on the place. I don't expect to be treated like royalty wherever I go, but the basic niceties - acknowledging the presence of customers, asking if there is anything they can do to help, etc - were not in evidence at all. Sorry, Silver Maple, for ignoring not only me, but my wife when she tried to engage the person on duty in direct conversation, has probably cost you a customer who has spent several hundred dollars in your establishment over the past few years.

The review of Silver Maple posted by Ken R might give people the impression that he and his wife…read morehad walked into some big retail space. There are many people who do not want immediate interaction when they're in an intimate-sized gallery and prefer to browse without any interference and that's always a judgment call. Typically, couples do prefer to speak with each other when they're shopping for art together. At Silver Maple, the access to help is rarely an obstacle but there are, as in any small Mom&Pop main street businesses, phones that ring and many relationships that are part of the daily flow. A careful reading of Ken's experience suggests that a dynamic was already in process that art probably wasn't going to address but Silver Maple, in its 13 years of operation, and on his own prior visits, has built its success on making strong relationships. It's a generous-spirited small business that offers great value and lots of experience for people with the time and patience to appreciate art.

I went in and was so impressed by all the beautiful items in the shop--things the owner has collected over time, including during her international travels. My favorite items were these vintage Chinese silk irons and Chinese vases. Items range from unique home decor to women's clothing. I'd highly recommend stopping by. This shop has the best taste I've seen in Burlington, VT, and I'd highly recommend it if you're looking to add beautiful, unique, cultural details to your home.

I rented a moving truck from them that quite literally did not work; it required a jump start every single time, not to mention the water damage inside the truck as well. It certainly was not road safe, nor should anything of value ever have been kept inside it. Their practices were suspicious the entire time: starting the truck for us, dodging our texts and calls when we tried to figure out what was going on, and when we returned the truck and politely complained, the manager threw down his pen, told us to call some random guy that supposedly worked with U-Haul (he dodged us too), ushered us out the door as fast as possible, and said "Have a nice day" with absolute annoyance. Then had the gall to charge me double what I paid for a "mileage fee" -- mind you, they forced me to get the truck 15 miles from where I needed it and only gave me 50 miles before I would have to pay $20/MILE. This scam was not told to me until I was at the establishment, needing a truck. Though it was contractually binding, it is extremely unethical and you're better off doing your business far from here, especially if you need a truck for a week or two of storage like I did. I complained about them to the Better Business Bureau about renting us a faulty truck (for almost $300) and they, I kid you not, lied in both of their responses, trying to make us out to be irresponsible and rude customers. They will scam you out of $500 and treat you like the scum of the earth. I was just a 20-something trying to move apartments, and it turned into a month-long ordeal where I ended up with just a partial refund for the mileage fee that was a scam in the first place. The worst experience I have ever had and absolutely terrible, unethical people running the place.
