Very unhelpful and passive aggressively rude. Older gentleman with white hair. Should fire this guy before he can cash in on a pension. Place is barren too, barely stocked.

I’ve been there many times in the middle of the work day and they are always closed. They do have a sign for their lunch hour but that isn’t the time I've normally been there.

Worst postal service I have ever dealt with. My packages are never delivered and always returned back to the office. Everytime I call they say they don't have them. It usually takes a week for me to be able to pick them up. My last package was "undeliverable" and brought back. I called multiple times about it and they said they didn't have it. I then got a call from the supervisor saying they have it. I go to pick it up and the shipped it back to the seller already. Guy at the counter is rude, always has an attitude, and not helpful at all. Avoid this particular office if at all possible.
