Definitely best bet is to buy one get one when they have that sale, but can you please hurry up and open so I can get my hat and get it embroidered please and thank you. Please do better.

I took my daughter in and she tried on a dress for my wedding. It fit but it was long and she…read morereally wanted a shorter dress. The clerk told us that the dress can be ordered in a shorter version so that was perfect. I asked when it would get here and she says oh it will be here by Friday (the same week. this was Sunday). I thought oh great! Perfect, please order it. I put a $20 deposit down. They said they would call me when it came in. Friday, no call. Saturday, Sunday no call. So I call on the following Monday to inquire. She said "oh it will be here by this weekend". Ok so you said that LAST weekend. She again says "I will call you when it gets here". Later that same day I get this random text message from a number I didn't recognize and was not in my contacts. "When do you need the purple" it said. Ummm... huh?? So I respond "the purple what? who is this?" Response: "Dress. Wrong number?" Ok well that was super unprofessional but anyway.... I respond is this the shop where I ordered the purple dress? If so, I need it ASAP. I was told it would be here last Friday". So she says, is the 21st ok? Um NO, my wedding is on the 22nd, I am not cutting it that close to get a dress I was told would be here last week (3 weeks before my wedding). Response: "ok". So Friday rolls around again, I called to check to see if the dress arrived. This woman basically YELLS at me on the phone telling me I have called her several times and I need to stop calling her, she has told me that she will call me when she gets the dress, and then HANGS UP IN MY FACE. Really?? You treat your customers this way when all I did was call to check to see if my dress arrived that was supposed to have arrived a week prior?? Whatever you do, DO NOT go to this place and order anything unless you have an unlimited amount of time to wait for it. They need to learn what CUSTOMER SERVICE means. So I still have no dress and I will probably now just be out of my $20 deposit because there are NO refunds. Of course..... And I suspect they do NOT care about reviews

Whenever I can I choose to support local over the big name printers and Kalvin shines as a professional business owner that treats clients and customer relationships as more than just a print order and number.

I have had posters, flyers, stickers, t-shirts, hoodies, and business attire, and custom embroidery handled through Kalvin at SPFY, and satisfaction would be an understatement throughout each project I've worked with from idea to finished product. Whether on a budget, or are looking for multiple options regardless of print type SPFY provides options from standard to ultra-premium using the latest print technologies, machinery, hardware, and software, all backed by an industry expert and master in his craft!

This place makes adulting fun! I don't know why I never discovered this before. It's got everything…read moreI've ever wanted to look at all in one place. From knives to pots and pans to kitchen gadgets you didn't think you would need until you see them. They even have makeup, hair products, clothes, and anything you can think of. It was so much fun roaming around this store, and they have a variety of the same item. For example, my goal was to get a butcher knife. They have big ones, small ones, heavy ones, ones with short handles, and ones with longer handles. I spent a long time picking one out to my liking. The inside feels like a big warehouse with everything neatly placed in a way that you can just walk up and down the aisles with ease. There was so much to look at that I felt like I spent close to an hour or more here. Some things were reasonably priced, while others were a little higher. It really depends on what you plan on getting from here. I almost got a wok from there but decided against it because the one on sale was a little bit too heavy for me. If you are in the area and love kitchen things, I would suggest going to Shin Shin to check it out. It was fun for me, and I plan to take my mom there on our next trip to Seattle. However, I might regret that decision later, because my mom would just spend her entire trip there and not want to leave. Haha, I will keep you posted on this. Parking is plentiful. Credit cards are accepted. One thing that caught my attention, though, was that the employees would stare you down after a little while. Instead of having security cameras, they have employees at every corner who would randomly show up next to you to ensure you are "shopping" and not stealing. If you are okay with having a personal bodyguard while you shop, then there would be no issues at all. Have fun!

I had driven past Shin Shin several times in Lakewood, but always headed elsewhere. This time I…read moremade it a point to detour and check it out (4/17/26). It is a fairly large retail site that carried assorted housewares, some alcohol, restaurant gear, small appliances, bedding and linen, Korean hair & skincare products, and clothing. I was rather amused at the gigantic sizes of some bowls, woks, rice cookers, and cooking pots...literally could hold a toddler or two. As other Yelp posts have noted, they do have attentive store personnel that are at the ready should you have any questions. Unless you're a regular shopper, one will definitely be wandering and browsing every aisle since there are no overhead signage. After all that wandering, I did end up paying for a substantial back scratcher for The Homie and a floral print quilted vest for my mom. Both were reasonable and one was even on sale! Chalk it up to, you don't think you'll find anything in particular, but stop in Shin Shin for some momentary retail therapy.

We sat down and designed a shirt from scratch and had it beautifully printed on a high quality t-shirt in under an hour. I'm sure that can't guarantee that kind of turn around all the time, but they clearly want to take care of their customers. I will be back!

Their website states they have no minimum order quantity, and claims, "From one T-shirt to 10,000,…read morewe've got you covered". Well, if you are looking to have just one item printed, expect to be treated like they don't give a sh*t about you. I had to call and email them several times just to get a reply, and then they just stopped replying all together. If they had initially simply said they're not interested in doing such a small order, fine, at least that way I wouldn't have wasted my time trying to get them just to respond. But when they let you know they don't want your business by just ignoring you, while at the same time claiming they've "got you covered" no matter how small your order is, well that's just irritating. So, my advice is, if you are looking for a local print shop to do a small order, don't bother wasting your time with Banksii. I recommend Pork Chop Printing in SODO. They were happy to print my shirt (even on very short notice) and were very responsive. Edit: The owner's response to my review is very inaccurate. It is true that I said I had decided to not go ahead with the order (which I decided mainly due to his lack of responsiveness to my emails/calls leading up to that point), but a couple days later I decided I would give them another chance. So I called and left them a voicemail but never received a reply. I then sent them an email, to which they also never replied. I then tried using the chat feature on their website and never received a reply to that either (it claims that they reply to chat messages within one hour). So his claim that "All email were answered" is total BS. As far as his claim that "All of our services on the website list minimum order quantities, except vinyl", while it is true that it says that on the individual pages linked under their "Services" page, the FRONT PAGE of their website says, again, "No minimum" and "From one T-shirt to 10,000, we've got you covered". So, like the owner's response to my review, their website is very misleading. So not only are they obviously not interested in your business if your order is small, but they apparently are dishonest, too.
