I do miss the sales/coupons that they used to offer as corp but for most items I buy they are fairly priced & they now offer a decent rewards program. For the most part this store is pretty clean and organized. More recently I had to make a return. They do offer a few self checkout kiosk now but I never knew you HAD to use them to checkout even though there's almost always 2-3 staff standing in the checkout area. While in line waiting to make my return there was a staff directing people to the self checkout kiosk. When she realized I had a bag she took me to a register to help with my return. There was an older lady behind me that moved up a bit to stand behind me at the register, meaning she wanted to be assisted with her checkout. The cashier told her that the registers were for returns only and that she had to get back in line to use the kiosk. The lady expressed she always has trouble using the kiosk and would rather have assistance and the cashier still stood on the fact that she could only checkout via the Kiosk. I did not like that at all. All I could think about is my older non tech savvy grandparents being treated this way as if everyone is hip to modern technology. I have even had issues trying to figure out how to redeem the rewards vouchers on the kiosk. I get that may be the way world is going (to reduce workers or whatever) but the register can indeed be used to ring up an order and the cashier should have assisted or at least called for help from her other idle coworkers to assist the woman at the kiosk. That was a very poor display of customer service in my opinion.

I had to frame big photographs for a show recently, and was looking at framing costs close to $1000 per print. Yikes. The gallerist in Brooklyn recommended Metropolitan. I took the plunge. The prices were about 1/3 what I found locally. And the quality is absolutely first rate. They worked with me to meet a deadline, and the frames were perfect. A couple of caveats: if you're ordering online, you have to know what you want, and be certain of it. Their website doesn't offer a lot of tools to help you choose moulding, and the pictures that show their various finishes are small and not very accurate. Measure carefully. Measure again. Double-check that you entered the measurements correctly! No one else is going to do it. And of course, you have to be comfortable handling the glazing and assembly once the frames show up. If you're using plexiglass and don't have an adequately big, dust-free workspace, you could be in for some unhappiness. I'd suggest researching online how to clean plexi and remove static charge while working with it. The frames I got were made with maple moulding that they mill in-house. They were assembled with cabinet joints in the corners (awesome) and perfectly finished with tranlucent lacquer after assembly. Much nicer than frames built with pre-finished moulding. These were as nice as anything I've seen in museums. I'll definitely use Metro again, but will make sure I have plenty of time and clear space for the assembly process. Doing it perfectly and keeping everything clean is not trivial.
