Professional, quality, quick, and caring -- these are the four adjectives I'd use to describe Fidel and his team. I originally requested a quote from Fidel over a month ago, but wasn't able to put in an order until this week. Fidel was extremely responsive answering every question I had and was able to turn it around in under 24 hours. What really impressed me though was when I went to pick up the book. He had about 10 post-its sticking out of the book highlighting potential issues. All of them turned out to be my errors, but I really appreciated his transparency and commitment to quality and making sure I was happy with the outcome. And the book (my product for my small business) looked amazing! It was great to see it in color. I'll definitely be back! Note: the shop is in a small plaza across from the gas station so can be hard to miss. read more

I've been working with Fidel and Josh for over three years, and they always come through for me. They've printed everything from backpacks, shirts, and programs to cups, masks, hand sanitizer, and so much more. Their prices are always fair, their quality is excellent, and they never miss a deadline. If you're looking for reliable printers who deliver great results every time, I highly recommend them. read more

Highly recommend! I called in need of a rush order and they accommodated me and got it done asap. Very friendly and great pricing.

We used Alternative Source to help produce our store front banners. They were a breeze to work with and met all of our needs. Josh also made us custom flyers to help promote and grow our business. Not only was he able to create the design he was also able to produce the flyers very quickly. We've already found ourselves using their business multiple times. If you are in and around La you definitely need to give them a shot. They won't fail you. read more

FAST, CHEAP & FRIENDLY! I've used Alternative Source for a few years now to print posters, postcards and booklets for my tournament events and they've always given me the lowest prices and had the best quality work. Fidel and Bobby are super cool, informative and gets the job done. I just had an emergency and needed 5000 postcards in less than 24 hours and they said 'no problem' and took my order! I'm glad I can rely on these guys for all my printing needs =) read more

Whoa! These are some pretty harsh reviews. I'd been dealing with Fidel and Alternative Source LA for at least 8-9 years...maybe more. Fidel has printed tons of business cards for me, mountains of flyers and truck loads of catalogs for me too. His pricing is very competitive and believe me, we shop around when we are about to print up 2500 pcs of 75+ pages long catalogs. The quality is first rate, the turn around is always quick and they are all super cool to deal with. I'd turned a lot of friends and even my competitors onto ASLA and will continue to because I have had ZERO PROBLEMS WITH THEM!!!! PS- I am writing this because my buddy designed a postcard for me and Yelped ASLA before he submitted the artwork. He was worried for me and brought this to my attention. And just as my buddy looked out for me, I feel like I need to look out for Fidel and crew...they don't deserve this smear campaign. read more

Came here for the first time. Worked with Fidel and Josh for two meme posters that I needed printed out for my cousins graduations. For many reasons I was LESS than the ideal customer: 1) Called last minute 2) Needed everything done same day 3) Did NOT have images ready They let me use Eddie's computer to make all the memes, which ended up being low quality images because I had made memes out of them. Josh asked for the original images and quickly made them into memes with the original images to minimize the pixels. I was in a hurry and pixels did not bother me, but they really wanted to create a quality product... The posters turned out BEAUTIFULLY, with a FAST turnaround. Many things to like about this place: 1) Family business 2) FAST + QUALITY 3) Friendly 4) Personable 5) Big Screen with the World Cup playing in the background I went to Print Spot last time, and I will never go back... This is my new spot for all my printing needs. They are the ideal print service even for the non-ideal customer!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. read more

Josh helped me with graphics for toddler soccer team banner. I had concept, but he ran with it, and this newbie Soccer Mom is thrilled with final graphics! Also impressed with how promptly the proof was ready. I was worried banner wouldn't be ready in time for 1st game, but Josh came through. Definitely recommend Alternative Source LA. They're super helpful, talented, and prices are competitive. read more

Lost my business card original format and they were able to duplicate as best they could with the very last card I had in my hand. Fast and affordable rates! I've dealt with lots of sign companies and graphic designers so I know affordable when I see it! Slight awkward customer service... soon as I gave my card and asked questions they didn't talk or tell me to wait, come back or sit down to see if they could get the job done and started designing away as I stood and stared for 10 min. Till I figured I should prolly just sit. All in all I'll be back! read more

This review is overdue. I walked into this business because I wanted to have some photoshop work done with an image I had. I figured what I wanted to have done would be pretty simple for someone with photoshop skills, but it was something too difficult for me to do and it would have been way too time consuming trying with Microsoft Paint lol. I didn't get the name of the guy who helped me, but once he was free he asked me what I wanted to have done. I handed him my usb, told him what I wanted to have done, and he started working on it. I was sitting to the side of him and he'd ask me for my input as far as how I wanted a specific thing to look or where to position it. He was done in what felt like less than 15 minutes. He was one 1 of 2 guys working there at the time and they looked like they were related. Brothers probably? He was able to create exactly what I wanted and he also charged me a very reasonable price which I really appreciated. So I just wanted to say thank you for helping me again. read more

Really nice people. They couldn't help me with some resume prints but directed me to doculogic down the street a min away.

Terrible TERRIBLE customer service! I walked in to the new location that's two doors down and it was like walking into an old garage dirty, paper everywhere. And not the way a business should look whatsoever! But I thought hey I'm not gonna judge a book by its cover so I preceded to inquire about some business cards I wanted by Saturday the latest (I came in on a Monday) so one of the men gave me a pen and paper and told me to draw what I wanted on the card I thought to myself this is not the most professional way to show what I wanted for my cards but okay! I finished drawing on the paper and gave it to the man and I asked how much something like that would run he didn't give me an estimate but said he would email me the pricing shortly. Mind you I was the only person in their and they treated me as if I was a bother so I left a little discouraged but was excited to get my business cards in the making or so I thought) A day goes by no email of pricing information so I called on the second day and the man who answered says he was working on my cards and would be sending a proof via email in 30 minutes to check my email in 30. So an hour goes by no email, a day goes by no email it's been officially one week and no email response on the cards i was interested in. I was so bummed because I had a big event that I needed new cards for and was hopeful of the fast turn around time this business claimed to have. So I was left with no business cards. But it's okay because I wouldn't want to waste money at this place! Thanks to Vistaprint I had EXCELLENT help and customer service developing a business card! read more

Thank you for 10 years of excellant service. Affordable, fast and friendly, best way to describe this company. Hit up my boys from ALSLA for any print work. read more

Awesome Customer Service. Alternative Source made my visions come to life, along with amazing prices. Can't beat that.

This was the best printing place that I have ever been to. They had the best price and the best quality of work. I went to Alternative Source for 2 table cloths for an East Los Angeles College student club called Dream Weavers. I took the logos and idea to Andy and he did an awesome job and it was ready in 2 days! He even recreated the Dream Weaver logo so that it could be enlarged in high resolution and it looked amazing. He exceeded our expectations and this is the spot that I and my coworkers are going to from now on. Great group of guys at alternative source. Thanks Andy! read more

I wanted to give a huge THANK YOU and recognition to Joshua at Alternative Source. If I could give them 10 stars I would! They went above and beyond to help me to produce a seating chart for my friend that was getting married. The company that we originally used canceled on us last minute. We only had 3 days until the wedding to get his done. We literally had a picture of the idea we wanted and the seating chart. Josh and company were able to not only complete and deliver but the finished product was amazing! They were so considerate of the time crunch and have the best customer service ever! I can't say enough about these guys. Thank you! You guys are the best!!! read more

I needed to have some customized t-shirts made for a bachelorette party and I am so glad I found ASLA on yelp. The shirts were of great quality. Even after a wash, the shirts did not shrink drastically and the print on the shirts did not fade. A shout out to Josh who helped me with the design of the t-shirts. I am not artistic or creative at all and all I had was a photo from pinterest to show him. He was able to replicate and also make adjustments to the font style and graphic to make the overall design unique. The shirts were done a whole week earlier than I anticipated and I got a great price! If you're looking for great service, quality, competitive pricing, and professionalism, I definitely recommend ASLA to anyone who needs custom printing services. read more

Fidel and Josh always do a fantastic job! I am always impressed with their expertise, professionalism and customer service. I highly recommend Alternative Source to anyone looking for quality printing at a reasonable price. read more

This will be my 3rd time doing business cards with Alternative Source. They got real good prices and help out with the design. Got 3 different designs done with them and all 3 times the designer took less than 10 minutes to design the cards just how i wanted them. I've recommended them plenty of times. They're a type of business you dont try to low ball cause their prices are GOOD their Customer Service is FAST and easy to deal with. They always gave me my order the next day as promise! Also another thing I liked is that this last time I went to make an order, the guy that helped me out at first saw I was with my 2 kids and he was nice enough to turn on the cartoons for them even though the office was busy. Not many places like kids but they gave us real good service. read more

All I wanted was a couple of posters, here's what happened instead: First, I was supplied with the wrong paper then, the last name on the credits was completely blurred out. I waited 90 minutes to have this situation corrected only to have the same error duplicated! I was assured that the error would be corrected, so I returned a couple days later and the poster was even worse than before. That's four, errors, none of which were my fault. I could not believe the manager was actually upset with me, saying things like "I work with people like you all the time." & "Do you want it or not?" He was completely rude & unprofessional and because of that, he's lost me as a client as well as my many colleagues. I wasted gas, time and energy in my attempt to work with ALSLA, and will never work with them again, whether you do or not is up to you. I wish ALSLA the best, and truly hope that I am the last client to ever be treated like this. read more

Highly recommend doing business with these guys great customer service, awesome prices!! Thanks for all the help Joshua Rodriguez!! Coming all the way from El Paso, Texas read more

Terrible customer service. Had labels made that were not visible. I gave them a chance to redo the job as long as they gave me proof that it will look good but they would rather me pay for the whole job again with no guarantee it will turn out good. I asked them to make me a sample so i can see the product before i pay for the whole job again and they couldnt print me out a sample. They turned me away over a 30$ roll of sticker paper and a potential long term customer cause they took my money and left me to get the job done else where. Josh informed me if i wanted a white boarder on my labels which i did not but never informed me that the label needed a white background for the labels to be visible. Seemed like cool people at first but when it comes to customer service AFTER the job, they dont do anything to help you. Hope this company will realize your business thrives through REPEAT customers and customer service and customer referrals. Not just doing a ONE time job and taking your customers money and sending them elsewhere. read more
