Like some other reviewers, I didn't even know this company existed - was referred to them by a top notch construction company. I knew if they were using them for printing blue prints, this would also be the company
I wanted to work with. I called, asked to see if they could expedite the print job and an employee named Meredith worked with me to have them ready in less than 15 minutes. The cost seemed very reasonable. I got there a bit early and she indicated she could bring out directly to my car once they were ready. There was parking directly in front of the business - which is imp&apos

I wanted them to print a single booklet as a gift. Even though that isn't something they usually do, they were very flexible! Super fast and responsive service, came out looking great, and very affordable.

They verbally promised me a cost estimate before starting a scanning project of 1/2 box of letter-sized correspondence, then never contacted me with the estimated price and just went ahead with the scanning. I asked them twice and both times they confirmed they'd call me first so I could decide whether I wanted to proceed. No call until it was finished. It ended up being 4-5x ($220) what the guy guessed at ($50) when I took it in to be looked at. Very, very shady operation. I should have pursued either cancellation or legal action, but never wanted to deal with this project or these people

I can't say enough about Dena at Blueboy Imaging. She helped me out immensely! Between the amazing customer service and having a printing and scanning resource right around the corner, I am happy to give Blueboy a 5-star review. I highly recommend taking your printing and imaging business there!
