    You can call and call and call (which I have) and when they finally answer they say "we'll have someone check the shelf for you" without any information to know what package to look for and put you on hold before you can say ok. If this were a package I had time to re-order I would do that, just let me pick it up unless of course you lost it and that's why my tracking hasn't been updated in TWO DAYS!! Last time I had an issue like this someone answered the phone and actually put my package to the side for me to pickup. I don't know WHY this one person is being so inconsiderate today

    I would like to leave no stars. This place needs to be shut down. They do not care about customers. Two things happened to me at a week apart. 1. Needed to mail out a letter, went there and asked for an envelope and lady said in a rude way that they didnt have any. How can the usps not have envelopes. Left without being able to send my letter out. 2. Went in today to ship back a package. Needed to buy the label and tape the bag closed. They couldnt provide me with the tape, said they didnt have any but i could clearly see the tape gun in a table behind the guy. Then goes to tell me that all packages need to be taped up before i go in there. Im a working citizen and dont have the tape needed to tape the bag shut so im thinking since usps is a shipping and receiving place then they could help me out with that but i guess not. Label, guy tells me that i need to write who im sending the package to and where its coming from on the bag itself. Correct me if im wrong but isnt that what the label is for. That is clearly whats on the label from when i received the package myself. I pointed this out and guy got mad and got rude by saying that that didnt matter i still had to physically write it down, which is stupid cause then it defeats the purpose of the shipping label. Just HORRIBLE, stay away. I know these are things I could have taken care of on my own but they should still have the materials needed to help out their customers if they need it.
