ABC Printing and Graphics

Jamie is a god-​send.
I’m a graphic designer /​gallery & exhibit assistant working for a gallery called Taiwan Academy L.A. in Westwood, and we were lucky to have contacted ABC Printing and Graphics for the brochures, flyers and the posters that we needed for the exhibit.
We needed these promotional materials in a pinch, and Jamie was very friendly and speedy in receiving our designs and printing them. Even with the digital printing option (we had to because of time constraints), the quality was impressive. Saturated, bright colors on really nice, sturdy cardstock recommended and provided by them.
From placing the order to receiving the digitally printed brochures and flyers, the whole process only took about two working-​days. For a large order like ours it was quite a pleasant surprise.
Jamie is very knowledgeable about the printing process, and very honest about the price differences. He suggested the higher quality and cheaper Press Printing method to us if we weren’t in a rush, and offered to press our brochures for a better fold.
Overall a very enjoyable experience. Highly recommended.

It’s been over a week now and I’m still fuming as I write this review…
Initially, I was excited that this place is full service printer and in my neighborhood. I’m a designer with over ten years of experience and have worked with dozens of printers in the past. I had my invitations designed exactly like I wanted – paper chosen, envelopes purchased, etc. I decided to give these guys a shot based on their positive reviews, however, I now realize that a lot of those reviews are either solicited or fake.
The end result? Sloppy. The invitations were not cut properly. The envelope liners were printed with a blue cast and cut so that there was a white border on the left edge. I even allowed a 1/​8″ bleed on my file, which means the cut was either off by ¼″ or they didn’t set up the print right. Either way, HUGE disappointment. I think Kinkos would’ve done a better job.
MY SERVICE EXPERIENCE
On my first visit on a Monday morning, they were closed. I called Jamie and he said that they were «training» new employees so he wasn’t there. Since they close before I get off of work, I decided to wait. I ended up waiting about 45 minutes before he opened. He apologized and seemed nice about it so I wasn’t too annoyed. A few days later, I stopped by again at the same time. They were closed. I called and received the same excuse. «Training», huh?
I wish I could go back in time and tell myself to trust my instincts and run away as far as possible. BUT since I’m an idiot and ignored all of the signs, I placed an order to get 160 envelopes, liners, and invitations printed. He charged me about $ 700 for everything which is really steep, considering I did all of the design work and all they had to do was print the damn things.
In a nutshell:
— I was never given an invoice
— Jamie said he was only charging me for the paper he had to special order, but then charged my card the full amount and afterwards stated that if I wasn’t satisfied that I would get my money back
— The guy who sets up the files (Steve) doesn’t know how to use excel or indesign. Are you kidding me!!! I had to troubleshoot issues and basically teach him how to do it over the phone. COMPLETELY unacceptable. Not to mention, he had a huge attitude problem.
— They couldn’t print the addresses on the envelopes because it was wrinkling. He suggested that I press out the wrinkles with my finger which looked horrendous. It’s unfathomable as to how that was an acceptable solution.
The cherry on top:
When I said I would print the envelopes myself at home, he couldn’t even find the packs of envelopes I initially gave him to give back to me. He even sarcastically said «if you had come earlier, I could’ve given them to you». Sorry that I have a full-​time job. Jamie said that he would drop them off at my place the next morning around 9am. Fine. Next day rolls around and I don’t hear anything from Jamie until 11:30am. I called him to ask about the envelopes, and he said he was going to be there soon. When I asked what time, he HUNG UP ON ME. I thought we might’ve gotten disconnected, so I immediately called back again. I asked the same thing, got an answer, started talking again, and then – HUNG UP ON AGAIN. The funny thing is that I was trying to tell him that I was nearby and could stop by the shop.
Furious, I decide to swing by the shop just to end this terrible nightmare. Guess what? NOBODY WAS THERE AGAIN. I ended up having to wait for him about 30 mins more until he finally showed up.
Worst service I’ve ever experienced in my life.

ABC Printing was amazing!
I dropped off my wedding invitation design on Friday, got a sample for approval on Monday, and received all my invitations on Tuesday. Not to mention, the quality was perfect! They had the exact paper and envelope I wanted and even matched the prices I was planning to purchase online so I saved time and money on shipping. Last but not least, the price was unbeatable. I highly recommend ABC Printing for your wedding invitation needs.

I ordered my wedding invites from this place and they worked hard to have them ready as soon as possible while keeping in communication to ensure that I got exactly what I envisioned. They also have a million options to select from as far as: style, color, texture and design. I am definitely going back to print my place cards and wedding images because the owner is very nice.

My business cards were very important to me and my company… Not only did Jaime take the time to go over every option but he was willing to spend extra hours perfecting the business cards to get them just right!

We were looking for a place that could prepare our wedding card in a week. Abc printing agreed to do so. Jamie was very helpful and generous.
We are now so happy with the result. Recommended!

After having my wedding invitations designed, I was researching online printing services (the usuals: Wedding Paper Divas, Zazzle, Vistaprint, Minted, CatPrint, etc.) and came across a few strong recommendations to try local print shops. As most know, the aforementioned online sites continuously have some type of sale or discount promo, so I was skeptical that a small brick and mortar could be competitive, especially given the 30% discount that I would have had with Wedding Paper Divas (WPD was the frontrunner since it seemed to be the only place that offered the 240 lb., 35 pt thickness cardstock).
People, run to ABC, do not think twice. Not only did they offer thicker cardstock, but their price put WPD to shame. You know how you get nickel and dimed with every little add-​on with wedding stationery? Not at ABC. I was going to hand stamp each of my invitations with a stamp; when Jamie saw what I was planning to do, he suggested that I send him the stamp JPEG so that he could just print it on the invite, free of charge. I wanted a specific font found only on an indie design website for the guest names on the envelopes, Scot downloaded it. I had to make a lot of last minute changes to addresses after I had sent the final file, not a problem. Would I like them to add our return address to the back flap of the envelopes free of charge? Is this a trick question?
There were probably 5 instances where Jamie nonchalantly asked if I would like a certain feature without upcharging me, and I, being so accustomed to absolute garbage service and/​or getting dinged for custom add-​ons, just kind of stared back for a moment in bafflement before I could respond. Guys, when I went to pick everything up, the invitations were yet to be cut, and Jamie offered to home deliver my invitations later that day (I live about 3 miles away). My jaw was on the floor.
TL; DR — Do not get tricked by online print/​stationery website «discounts» or «sales.» ABC Printing offers better prices and better quality than what you’ll find online. Unusually excellent customer service that inspired me to write a mini novel. Very strongly recommend.

I went here to print out wedding invitations and let me just say that these guys were awesome. We needed wedding invitations printed out as soon as possible so we can send them out as soon as possible. They had no problem working with me and even suggested that if they didn’t finish the prints, to come back the next day to pick them up even though they would’ve been closed that day. We had a little miscommunication about the number of prints needed, but the manager gave us no extra charge for the extra prints. He just wanted to make sure that I got what I was looking for and the prints came out even better than we thought they would. I highly recommend this place for professional color prints!

ABC printing did multiple printing jobs for my wedding and I am so happy with how everything turned out. They were incredibly patient and worked with me to make sure that I was completely happy with everything. Great customer service. I highly recommend Jamie and Scot for all of your printing needs!

I came here for a rush print job for wedding invitations. I chose this place because of the great reviews and it’s close proximity to my apartment. Jamie gave me some wonderful insight on my invitation design that I had done myself. He was also very flexible with my schedule for viewing printed samples and picking up on a Saturday, a day on which they are normally closed. I will definitely come back for future print work and highly recommend ABC Printing to anyone.

I was searching for a print shop to print my wedding program and menu that I designed on my own. After searching on Unilocal,I found ABC Printing. The reviews said to look for Jamie, and that’s who I spoke with and dealt with. Working with Jamie at ABC was so easy and simple. His quote was also considerably lower than other print shops I contacted. I got 180 programs and 180 menus in 48 hours. Before finalizing, I saw a sample within a few hours. So precise, professional, and fast!

Came to these guys with some last minute printing requests that FedEx couldn’t do. This company completely opened my eyes to how a printing company should be. Customer service 100% amazing.
They did a test print of the job in front of me, made sure I liked it and made sure they could do it before the time I needed them by. I walked in and they had the box of prints ready and waiting for me.
Will definitely use these guys again. Amazing service.

If I could give ABC printing more stars, I definitely would!
From stationary, business cards, letterheads, to glamorous wedding invitations, ABC printing is your place to go!
I recently had my wedding invitations done by them and I could not be happier!
Let me start off by saying that the owner, Mr. Aryeh, is extremely patient and attentive, and very devoted to making his customers happy. His design and selection of wedding invitations is one that not many people are able to do. I told him exactly what I wanted and he made it happen!!! And on top of that, he made it all happen in such a smooth, easy, timely and reasonably priced manner!
His work is amazing. Professional. Elegant. Beautiful. Top quality.
From one bride to another, I definitely and highly recommend ABC printing for all your printing needs!!!

They are very helpful here and the price is reasonable. I came here cuz FedEx couldn’t help me. What a nice turnout!

I am truly impressed by the level of professionalism and quality of work. I had a 24 hour deadline where I needed to have quality work done at an affordable price and they exceeded my expectations. I have no idea why anyone would to Kinkos when you have a high quality, personalized, and professional print shop across the street.
I highly recommend for anyone who needs grade A print work done to come here.

My wedding invitations came out more beautifully than I even expected! Mr. Jamie helped me to choose colors and paper and he delivered very fast. He was a pleasure to work with and very patient with me as I am a perfectionist, haha! Thanks to ABC Printing for the beautiful invites, I’ve received many compliments on them!

We have had several wonderful experiences at ABC. Initially they helped created a unique business card which has helped grow my business. And finally they designed a beautiful tribute page to a foundation. I highly recommend this place.

I would like to begin by saying how patient and delightful the owner, Jamie was to work with. I came into the store not knowing what I wanted and he was helpful by showing me various catalogs and samples of wedding invitations. He helped me get an idea of what I wanted for this very special time in my life. In the end he was able to create a custom wedding invitation that I was beyond pleased with. He made sure I was happy with my order and kept in contact throughout the process. I highly recommend using abc printing for all your printing. Thank you Jamie!

Mr. Jamie its a very nice person, very professional, and he opened his venue on a Saturday, when actually they are closed, and they accommodated the service for me.
He has very reasonable prices!
Totally recommended.

I went to ABC Printing to have my wedding invitations printed out. Both Jaime and Justin were a delight to work with, helping me with all the details I hadn’t considered from paper to envelopes. Even to mailing requirements for the rsvp portion, which they thankfully called out as it allowed me to adjust the design before going to full print.
All in all, the service was great and fast, the prices were reasonable, and the staff was brilliant… Last but not least, the end product looked amazing!
I plan to come back again to have other wedding materials printed and for any other printing needs.
