Second, since they couldn't deliver the paper, I had to cancel my subscription. After much back-and-forth, they issued a 1/2-year credit. This went on for another month. Third, they then withdrew the pending credit, leaving me no recourse but to post on social media pages about this experience. Whoever these people are, caveat emptor.

Then then claimed it was for services provided and, when I advised them that Massachusetts does not tax services for providing periodicals, they cancelled my order and refunded the total amount that I paid. It looks like they did this in order to avoid acknowledging that they are collecting a sales tax that they have no right to collect.

I was close to tears and my eyes were welling up and the people who work here said they were a small business, there was no restroom.

I like it mostly for the police blotter type stories which I find interesting and amusing unless it's a serious crime like assault and other felonies which I don't find interesting or amusing but makes me angry as hell.

For Queens, by Queensters, to Queensters!…read more The Queens Gazette is a weekly local community newspaper published specifically geared to the borough of Queens. I rate it four stars as local community newspapers as Queens Gazette is hard to local in small communities as Hollis Hills, Richmond Hill, or Ozone Park but residents need to flock to larger populated communities within Queens as Flushing, Forest Hills to obtain a copy of the Gazette. The Queens Gazette often announces events as the Saint Patrick's Day parade in Flushing and in The Rockaways. Queens, home to the 1964 and 1965 New York World's Fair, two airports, and Aqueduct Racetrack!

The place is clean and generally better maintained than some of the messy places that are only a block or two away. I tend to come by here every so often to pick up a lottery ticket and peruse the nice collection of magazines they have. Most mini stores in the area won't have such a diverse collection of reading material (newspapers, foreign mags, etc.) but the price they pay is a smaller inventory for things like food or toiletries of which they have very little. For some reason this place seems to be looming with traffic at all hours of the night. When their air conditioner isn't broken, it makes a world of difference in this place.

They seem to have as many items here as a full sized convenience store. They service Hunter College students, New York Hospital workers waiting at the bus stop and kids going to the Park East Synagogue School. It's next to the 6 Train subway exit. NYC newsstands don't get any better than this one. It's an interesting block as well, with at least two fruit/vegetable vendors, four Halal food carts (incongruously located outside an orthodox synagogue) and deep ruts in the blacktop roadway caused by the busses. The street by the bus stop undulates. They really should use concrete pavement at the bus stop. If you're reading this, you do realize I have time on my hands, and the newspaper headlines are too depressing to read. I'd rather acknowledge a well run and well merchandised newsstand.
