PostalAnnex+

Welllll… I went to Postal Annex to ship several packages.
A 1x4x4″ package would have cost $ 20 at Postal Annex. I sent through the U.S. Post Office for
$ 6. A 20 pound package at postal Annex would have been $ 53, at the U.S. Post Office it was about $ 16 in a pre made Priority Mail box. I did not use Postal Annex services and took the rest of my packages to the USPS. Postal Annex is a ripoff for mailing packages, 3 – 4 times the rates of USPS. I would not recommend their mailing service. Postal Annex also charged $ 5 for two small DVD type mailing boxes. They were free through Prority mail at the USPS.

Go here if you don’t mind paying about a 15 cent markup per stamp for standard postage. No thanks.

I’ve been to several Postal Annex locations and prefer this one over all others. Quiet with very helpful staff. Will be going here from now on.

This location is good! They usually have parking close by, but when the yoga studio has a class going on, forget about it. Friendly staff. Plus after hours you can still access you mail box, that’s really important to me. The do often put the previous persons mail in mg box, kinda annoying.
Great gifts and notary are available!

Alicia is awesome. She makes postal needs simple. A real pro’s pro. Postal Annex of choice.

Whow, talk about rip off, I’ve been coming here to mail certify letter for my work place the past year or so since it’s closer to my work place instead of driving to the post office. The other day, on my way to the doctor office, I actually pass by a post office and decided to stop in to drop off the letters instead, ²⁄₃ of what I’ve been paying at the postal annex. Everything we mail out is the same, same documents, 10 pages, going to the same place so it cannot be because of the size of the envelope etc… Taking into account that perhaps the brand of papers from previous times and this time might be different and caused the difference, but it cannot be $ 6 difference per envelope. Never again will I return to any of this place or any of their other locations.

Always a pleasant experience at this particular Postal Annex. But what makes me want to write this review is my last time shipping. Which was my first time shipping a BULKY guitar amp. Not only did this thing weigh 48 pounds. I had just came from the US Post Office after realizing they didn’t have the proper packing materials I needed to ship something so fragile. After a day of stressing over how I’m going to ship the amp. I finally go to Postal Annex. I knew it would cost more. But I didn’t know they would do ALL the packing for me. What a relief! This amp was my first sale on EBay and the item was very valuable to me and the buyer. Today I received a very kind email from the buyer in San Francisco, thanking me for making his Saturday so special by getting the amp so quick. He also said it was packed so good he didn’t know if he was going to be able to get it out. Which is a great thing to hear! Stephanie helped me with EVERTHING and really made this an easy going experience, in the end. I recommend postal annex to anyone in need of shipping, we also have a mailbox here. But they really shine with their great customer service and knowledge. Thanks again!
