Staples

I just placed an order with Staples online, haven't received everything yet, turns out someone used my card and either paid bills or transferred money, two large amounts and a small, even though my bank is going to refund me, this thief im sure that works at staples got away with my money and i gotta Wait until the 11th they tell me before I see my refund, the thief didn't have to wait but I do for my own money, What A World We Live In!

We tried to buy a computer desk & there was none in stock & no info if they would ever receive another one, yet they wouldn't sell the display, I will not shop there, bad policy.

This is a review for Staples, but it also applies to Office Depot, in that they are both exceedingly dull and uninspired big box stores for office products.

I am leading with Staples though, as it is near me and not out on "the strip." Also, I bought my computer from them.

You will find the most run of the mill supplies for your business or home office at Staples... but do not expect anything that is the least bit fine or inspired.

Frankly, I miss the privately owned paper goods store, where one might find Cross pens, Italian papers and those wonderful cardboard office files that tied up with a grosgrain ribbon.

The "sales associates" are usually listless high school students who have no idea what you are talking about or where things are located within the store. At check-out, they will barrage you with a million questions about becoming part of their corporate club and BS like that.

All in all Staples is adequate yet dreary.

Three lackluster stars.

Always used Staples for my office supplies, but they've closed the 2 stores closest to me. Was dead handy. Still online but probably fighting a losing battle against the big guys.

You can probably find just about anything in office supplies at Staples. I love this store but you have to no your prices. Read the weekly flyer and look for bargains. When a product goes on sale, to my knowledge, it is really on sale. If your looking for some assistance, you might be looking until the three wise men come walking down the street. On the bright side, Staples offers reward miles.

Service at Staples is usually pretty good and they'll almost definitely have any office supplies you need in stock but their prices can be a bit high. Just make sure to compare prices with Amazon and other office supply stores before you buy.

Staple's has been running some pretty attractive sales lately with many apparently decent prices. Kudos for that. But please pay close attention when receiving VISA card rebates. If not utilized and cashed immediately, they are quickly diminished in value by having fees applied to their value. They eventually become virtually worthless if not used. Just don't delay in spending your rebate or suffer my fate and lose hundreds.

I ordered computer monitor for personal use and while they arrived quickly. They provided by good customer service and timely delivered product.

You can find a solution for most of your home/business needs. Associates are keen to help. However, you can find similar items for a lower price elsewhere.

Staples is nearby. Used to have an Office Depot nearby but they moved. OD was better than Staples for prices, but each carry the same products. Staples is higher priced but usually well stocked. Look for sales prices. Don't look for help. Not much knowledge parked in the store help. We buy at our Staples, but only when necessary. Otherwise we make the drive to the locally owned stationery store. BTW, ouir Staples plays awful music really loud and that does taint our opinion of them.

My wife and I had a beautiful experience. Well, let's say on my second visit at a second location. Granada Hills location wasn't helpful at all. I only saw two people working. One was on the phone and the other was working the register. We walked out of that location and went to the Santa Clarita location. After looking around again we were greeted by Garrett Stevens. Because of his wisdom about the printers, I bought two and with the discounts and sales we got a great deal. Five stars for Garrett and zero for Granada Hills location.

They have a good selection of all kinds of products, but they're usually out of the good tablets that everyone wants. I got an iPad cheaper at another store than Staples.

Order business cards online that came out totally wrong they could not fix them at the store as well as a stamp they miss printed twice and finally got it right

Had stock in no delays and arrived in good condition. Average prices good quality merchandise. Would shop there again

I honestly don't understand how Staples stays in business except that they are better than nothing or Walmart.

They seldom have a variety of product, often have none of a particular kind, and staffers/employees to get help from is nearly impossible.

They have sometime some good deals but price wise they are no competing. You have find most of the product online half price.

Back to school soon, so i ordered few school goods.
They arrived fast, but poorly packaged. The pen box was destroyed.
I mean, i can't even tell if they just sent me a refunded or used products.

Great prices on some school supplies at the start of the school year. Other than that they carry average quality products for average to above average prices. Their electronics selection is ok, they carry the basics of low-end to mid range items. They have lots of printer inks/toners to get in a pinch, but the prices are a bit high. Good customer service. Don't waste your time with their computer services though, they are a ripoff (as almost every place is). If you have the internet it is easy enough to figure it out on your own.

The customer service was great but the product and technical expertise was an extremely stressful process the day I picked up my order. I ordered two banners and one was perfect but the second one was not what I ordered. They ran out of time the day I picked it up so I had to use what they had printed. Give yourself at least 3 full days to complete your order and plan on visiting the store twice to verify your final product. Day 1 - to submit your design online. Day 2 - to view the design on their software personally in the store and Day 3 - to see the finished product (the size you ordered and the scale of the images and words) and whether the design is stretched, shadowed, or any other options that may look different than your original order.

Staples just doesn't compete in the marketplace. Their stores look nice and their employees are friendly however they're not very knowledgeable. Once in awhile you'll find an item on sale that's a very good price. Other than that they try to sell too many different products and don't have a true focus. However for school supplies and office basic supplies I would definitely use them. Some people would say that they can get better pricing at Walmart, there's a big difference between people who shop strictly at Walmart and those who want good quality products. You may pay a little more for office supplies at Staples but the products are much better. I wouldn't suggest buying any electronics of any type there.

Need i say more, over priced again same issue with places like this. Inkfarm and go to walmart for your needed supplies. 10 bucks on planers really cheapest only gets a calender

THEY ARE SELLING BULK A LOT Of the products they used to carry they do not carry anymore. THE TONER prices are through the roof they refuse to sell single cartridges anymore - everything at STAPLES is higher than everyone else - I go online or other stores to get what I need now.

I don't mind shopping here if I can find a good deal. Unfortunately those are usually few and far between.
