I'll defend my one-star review of this business by drawing a comparison between two shippers: One…read morein Los Angeles, 5,700 km from my location, and Custom Pack & Ship, which is a day's drive from my location. I had recently made purchases of identical items in Los Angeles, and in Pittsfield, MA. To collect and ship one of the items I purchased that was located in Los Angeles 5,700 km from my location, I was charged $289US by the UPS store. Custom Pack & Ship charged me $575US to collect and ship an identical item located in Pittsfield, and send it to my location that is less than 500km away. Unfortunately, due to the dearth of alternatives in Pittsfield, I had no other option to exercise. It goes without saying that I will no longer be making any purchases of any kind in Pittsfield.

I've been to this location 4 times trying to get important documents printed out. Sometimes they…read morecome through, sometimes they don't - that's not acceptable business practice. I can understand your internet being slow on one occasion, maybe even two, but FOUR??? This location is also always super busy and although the staff isn't outright rude, it's apparent they'd really rather be any place else. I get it, no one likes to work, but when your job IS customer service do it with a smile or don't do it at all.

I contacted United Pack N Ship to ship out some small glass items from an auction. The shipping…read morecharge was $200 to ship eight small pieces of glass. They insisted it had to be shipped double boxed, else I could not insure it. OK, not much choice, so I used them. I received the packages, and each and every piece was double boxed. That's not exactly what the UPS guidelines are stating, all of the items could've been well packed and placed in one box, and that ONE box doubled boxed. That would've cut the cost considerably. Well to make matters worse, I received the packages AND THEY SHIPPED ME THE WRONG ITEMS!!! When I contacted them about their error, this was the response I received: ========================================================== Please contact Fontaine's. These are the pieces that we received.
