********* FULL DISCLOSURE ********
This review is not with any exaggerations ... this is word for word what I just went through at this "so called business"
I design and create cards for an online Etsy shop ... my printer at home isn't doing quite what I'd like, so I go into this place thinking it is my answer to all my businesses prayers.
Boy oh boy was I wrong. Right off the bat the lady calls the I needed copied out for not capitalizing the "i" in I'm ...
Eh .. I'm a nice person I'll let it slide maybe she thought she was helping out ...
For the record I am coming in here just asking for a price for copying one small A2 card onto a piece of cardstock.
She goes in the back and starts talking to an older man that works there about how to copy it and she's getting frustrated at him yelling at him because she can't figure out how to work the copier ... (but all I wanted was a price) ... the guy comes out and I ask him ...
"Do you by chance know how much it'll be to get that copied ?"(second time asking) (keep in mind I sold this card for about 5 dollars avg. card price, thinking the copy could only be 50 cents to a dollar)
Anyways he says "well it depends, how much do you need?" I said oh I just need one copy ..." he looks at me and scoffs, "well ... I mean you have to pay about 5 dollars for our time at least ... and then probably just a dollar for the copy"
(Me, still being understanding) oh okay I was thinking it would be a lot cheaper, ..."
he cuts me off ... "ha well you've got to pay us for our time "
Me " I totally understand, I just sold the card for 5 dollars so if I pay 6 for it to be made I would lose money but that you."
He walks in the back and loudly announces to the girl to just forget it "It's too much MONEY for her"
And then asks me if I needed anything else pretty much wanting me to leave and I said "I just need my card back" and then the girls laughs in the back because I can't "afford" it.
I mean the convo speaks for itself, how a business like this is still up and running amazes me. I honestly felt attacked and maybe they were just having a rough day but I don't care. I don't charge people "just for my time" just because I'm having a bad day. Really?
