This is about my 2nd or 3rd time coming here, mostly, out of convenience, so that I don't have to go out my way to Fedex or UPS print shop. And every time I leave frustrated at the amount I'm paying. Their fees for simple copying and scanning services is just ridiculous. And I'm mad at myself for not asking, so I'm always blindsided by the amount due when the work is completed. An amount that I know it wouldn't have been had I not been lazy and just went to Fedex/UPS smh. Fedex charges $.55 per page, so what would've costed $15.00 at max, coming here cost me $44 for 26 pages. And because of that, I won't patron here again. Next time I'll go out of my way, because this shop is extremely overcharging and for what reason.

That's why this location feels like the alternate universe version where time moves a little differently. The staff is courteous and clearly working hard, but the branch seems overwhelmed by the neighborhood traffic. There are usually only two, sometimes three employees, and once four or five customers walk in, the line basically becomes part of the entrance décor. You get about 6 to 8 feet of standing room before you are suddenly at the counter whether you are ready or not. The space itself is nice and open, but the workflow could use reinforcements. More hands or better coordination would go a long way. Compared to other FedEx and Kinko's locations that run like a well oiled machine, this one feels stretched thin most days. I am still glad it is here and open consistently. Just budget a little extra time and patience when you visit.

I visited this location many times and generally had no issues with sending or returning packages…read more However, during my most recent visit, the service was beyond frustrating and disappointing. There was only one employee assisting customers, and although he processed my return quickly, he rushed through it without weighing the package and left it unattended on the scale in plain view, given the value of the contents. I politely asked that it be placed under the counter with the other secured packages as part of standard process. Instead, the employee responded with visible irritation, delayed addressing my request for over 15 minutes and repeatedly ignored it while assisting other customers whose packages he immediately secured without issue, When I followed up, I was met with a rude remark rather than assistance. Notably, I was the only Asian in the store at the time which made the experience feel particularly uncomfortable and concerning. When I called UPS to file a complaint, they refused and said the only way to do that is to go to the physical store and speak to a manager. Do better, UPS.

For the most part, customers service is OK. If you know exactly what you want, then it's excellent. However, if you need a little more assistance then a couple members of the staff can be a bit cold. Don't get me wrong, they will help you out, but you can feel as if you are getting on their nerves (or you are mentally incapacitated) when you ask a lot of questions. Since (I'm assuming), that most of the clients are from Columbia and probably printing program books, posters, and fliers, it might useful for Village Copier to have standard templates.

But their self righteous attitude when I was not satisfied with results still bothers me. So I'll keep my review as a record and for your reference, if you are considering using village copier amsterdam. ------------ I printed my work sample the day before my job interview. The printed color was very off and redly toned. I complained. They said, laser printing was always right, so your file must be wrong. I asked them to reprint for double check. They said, you have to pay for it. I said, what if it's your problem. They said, no, the laser machine is too good to be failed. They won by claiming absolute rightness and charging me before they started to print. I left with anxiety about the coming interview, discomfort infilled by humid air, and anguish by my inability to fight back. Just leave a reminder here: Their level of professional service is a lie. They are always right about why the print looks different from what you have imagined. They may assume they have the best flawless machine in the world. Stay away from village copier amsterdam please. If you have to use village copier, do remember to pay for the job after you have seen the satisfying prints. Otherwise, you are left with no weapon and destined to loss.

On those rare occasions when shopping there, (i.e., for a new laser printer/scanner a few years back,) the staff downstairs appeared less knowledgable and more useful to just ring you up or handle a return. Perhaps dominance of customers ordering and better deals online has reduced the need for greater knowledge on this Staples floor beyond being able to direct you to the appropriate aisle. Plus, there is a wealth of guidance/reviews about their products on the web.
