Delivered high quality maps for years in communities throughout Massachusetts and beyond. Affordable local advertising. Did business with them a number of times. Sad to see a few negative reviews but print advertising did obviously change with the advent of smartphones and search. And GPS turn by turn directions in our pockets made printed maps less relevant. Times change. read more

**UPDATE 7/9/09** I FILED A SMALL CLAIMS AGAINST MAP GUYS/ANDREW FRIEND AND WON DUE TO HIM NOT SHOWING UP. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE OUT THERE. IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE TIME THEN AT LEAST FILE WITH BBB. THE MORE COMPLAINTS THE BBB GETS AGAINST THEM THEY CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. THANK YOU. BUYER BEWARE! If you own a small business and The Map Guys call you to Advertise on their maps, be very very wary! They will accept your payment, cash your check then never print the maps!! They did this in Franklin, MA and claimed the maps would be available in hotels and the Franklin Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber of Commerce has never even heard of them ! The Chamber gets their tourist maps produced by a company in PA. And Maps of Franklin have yet to be produced over a year later! They scammed me due to my own naivety, and I will never get my money back but instead I will make it my mission that I save someone else from falling for it. p.s. I personally use the word scam and not "falling on hard times" because they are STILL continuing to go town-to-town taking people's money and not producing a product and that IS premeditated. It's called Larceny under False pretenses. read more

So anyway, I'm out on one of my frequent excursions through the Witch City, needing a map. I stop by the ever so helpful and friendly Chamber of Commerce and pick through the many map options available. I found a Map Guys map, which included all the streets in Salem. Shwing! Most Salem maps concentrate on the tourist areas, but this one includes all of it, every square mile of our fair metropolis. The quality of the map is beyond compare, nice heavy paper, full color, gloss, clear print. The map is surrounded by helpful, professional, and attractive advertising. This should not turn you off; it's why the map is free. This map is truly a great resource, and when I had occasion to call the Map Guys themselves, they were very courteous and extremely helpful. Contact the Map Guys or stop by the Chamber for your map. Hooray for the Map Guys. read more

This business is the worst rip off. I had ordered maps for my business in May of 2008 and have yet to receive them and even with a letter from my attorney, they have not responded to constant calls and correspondence. They have not returned my money which was paid in May 2008 (stupid as that sounds). If you see The Map Guys coming and looking for your advertising dollars for their "maps" ...run the other way...or better yet...ask them to leave your place of business. read more

I never had a problem with these guys until the last time around. They went out of biz and I lost my deposit. but you know what, that is business. I am not happy but I GET IT because I am an adult. The map quality was incredible and I even used a coupon to track results. It is sad to see them go as our town clerk loved their maps. Currently they have no maps at town hall and that stinks. It is also sad that a team of graphic artists are out of work. i think that is the story here. The real estate market seemed to kill these guys as the top agents in town always took big ads. Obviously that dried up a bit the last few years...There you go. 10 years I did business with them and now they are gone. I would call that a casualty of business. Not a scam. 3 stars. read more
