I bought a 40th birthday present for a friend and it was looking a little bare. My friend's really into cigars. He has a backpack full of cigars, a really nice lighter, and a cigar cutter. He'd take this backpack everywhere he went to share his cigars with friends, including my husband. Every time they would light up, they'd always have to create a makeshift ashtray and try to find a place to lay their lit cigars. So husband and I bought him a portable ashtray/cigar holder from Amazon. I was initially just going to give it to him without the personalization, but it's his 40th birthday so I needed to make it special. I looked on Yelp and got quotes for engraving places. I found AKD. Chris from AKD was the quickest to respond, the cheapest, the closest, and he completed it the next day, just in time for my friend's 40th birthday. I highly recommend Chris. He takes Venmo, he's a super nice dude, and provides quality work. Thank you Chris! read more

Akd Ink - Screen Printing/T-Shirt Printing Near Me - Chatsworth, California

We have used AKD Ink for a variety of reasons over the last couple of years, and they have truly come through for us in a jiffy. We regularly need promo clothing and materials for trade shows, retreats, and holiday gifts, and we love that AKD Ink is so local to us and so efficient. Sometimes, we have last-minute requests and orders -- and AKD Ink helps us make them happen. I believe we have only worked through Chris at AKD Ink. He is so patient and accommodating. I was frantic to get some business cards made on literally no notice, and he was honest and upfront about why it couldn't be done. Instead, he proposed an alternative solution. I ultimately had a different version of the cards made along with the original ones, and he was able to have the time-sensitive cards delivered well ahead of deadline. Much, much appreciated. If you're taking in a sample, they will tell you if they can't guarantee the work. We've asked to have samples printed on before, and they haven't always been successful. Not their fault -- not everything is made of the right material. In terms of pricing, we've price-checked a number of printers. AKD Ink isn't always the cheapest option, but he's certainly one of the more reasonable and most reliable ones. read more

chris was wonderful! he was able to engrave a bottle for me as a gift for a friend in 24 hours! would recommend!!! thank you !

Chris was absolutely amazing in accommodating our needs. He was able to engrave the back of my daughter's valedictorian medal with her name and date of graduation beautifully. Customer service is impeccable, work is top notch, and prices are very competitive. Would utilize his services again and highly recommend. Thank you Chris! read more

Great customer service. Got some shirts printed here. They are the best. Fast reliable service. My shirts came out awesome! I recommend them. They did not disappoint! I will be coming back here when i need more shirts made! They also do other stuff too like awards, medals etc. Check them out you wont be disappointed. read more

They were polite but could not give me a quote. A bit too hard sell for my taste. Another company came through.

Still truly the best place to get your shirts printed! Chris and his staff go out of their way to help you and get exactly what you need. My last order for our school, we had adjustments of deadline and additional last minute shirt orders and Chris and Tyler did it all for us in a professional and timely manner. Their prices are great and it is truly the best place to go for your printing needs. You will not get the quality and value anywhere else. read more

I spoke with Chris and he was extremely helpful and always followed up in a timely manner. I found him to be refreshingly honest and I would highly recommend him to anyone. read more

I've used them twice, just to put lettering on one shirt. Both times, they promised to email me the proof the following week and didn't. When I emailed them asking where the proof was, it instantly appeared in my inbox. Then I never hear from them until, when I have lost patience and email them asking when my shirt will be ready, it suddenly is instantly ready. Like they don't start work until I've lost patience and bug them and only then do they start the work. The first shirt took 3 weeks for them to do and the second shirt took them 4 weeks to do. read more

I came here to get our fantasy football league championship belt an engraving with all the champion names. They were very helpful in providing options and helping get the job done. My league mates are super happy with the results. I had tried other trophy places and were generally unwilling to do the job or just simply sent me away. I will for sure keep coming back. Thanks AKD marketing!!! read more

Walked in the door to see a small child playing at the register- and no one else. Ok- so it's a family ruin biz. I stand around waiting for something to happen. After getting bored waiting I yell "hello". A voice in the distance said "be with you in a minute". After a few more minutes I walked out mad. Never saw anyone except the kid. Sadly, they couldn't be bothered with my business. After this review they tried to make it right by offering a free shirt. I'd given a lower star rating but after some attempt on their part I'll modify some. I had no luck with them.. but maybe it was an off day. read more

I took a pen for engraving after I talked to the owner and was assured that they know how to do it. It took them 3 days and after I picked up the pen, the engraving is completely unreadable and scribly. I paid $450.00 for the MontBlanc pen and now it is ruined. I called to let them know about it and all they said was that they are sorry. I will not go there again and definitely will tell everyone about my horrible experiense read more

Absolutely adore this company. It's a family owned business and I had the opportunity to meet the crew. All of them were down to earth and very helpful in showing me their services. I got a little tour of the shop and was able to see the behind the scenes. Chris, Dennis, and Tyler presented me with some of their previous work. They managed to get my large order done within a reasonable amount of time. I highly recommend this company as they have proven their worth to me. My family is very happy with our custom sweatshirts that we use daily in the cold weather. Thanks AKD Inc! Will definitely do business again in the future. read more

I could not have had a better experience. AKD was able to print brochures at half the price of what kinkos charges and was extremely quick. I was very happy with the costumer service, I was panicked about how fast I needed the brochures done and the employees calmed me down with there confidence in having it done on time. I was extremely happy with the quality of the printing. read more

They have provided excellent service, quality and even made deadlines when we were late getting them the needed info for trophies for our kids! They always work within our budget, are friendly and professional. We wouldn't go anywhere else!! read more

I haven't been in a store quite like this one. It may look like a trophy store from the outside, but it's much more. I thought I was just going in to look for an acrylic item for my wife. We started talking and I told him that I was going to start my own business. The endless possibilities they had to offer. I hope everyone has the same experience that I had. Thank you A Kidz Dream. I hope your business grows as much as ours does. read more
