Apex Custom Dry Cleaners

CLOSED
I have never had any thing dry cleaned in Seattle, so I thought for my first time I would support a place in my neighborhood. BAD IDEA.
First, I dropped my one item (a silk dress) off on a Thursday morning and said «I want to pick it up Monday» to the counter girl. She gave me a receipt with a quote for $ 7.00 and said «no problem»
PROBLEM #1
It wasn’t ready Monday, like I had asked, I had to go back the next day. super inconvenient
PROBLEM #2
It was not $ 7 as I had been quoted, but $ 12.50. FOR ONE DRESS to be cleaned and pressed. That is way too much. When I complained that the first girl told me it was $ 7 and showed her my receipt, the second girl said, «She didn’t know what she was doing, it’s $ 12.50»
Don’t go here, they are not friendly, not interested in customer satisfaction and are too expensive.

These people must have some space-​age alien technology to support their prices.
I wanted to try a variety of local dry cleaners to see whom did a good job, prices, service, etc.
I couldn’t even get that far with these people.
«Oh! Seattle is very expensive! $ 6 to dry clean each shirt and only $ 2 to launder!»
Yeah. Maybe that would be a fair price if they were being laundered in the tears of virgin priestesses using a collection of extinct herbs and rare earth substances as detergent.
Might as well buy shirts on clearance and burn them for heat afterwards if you’re willing to pay these kind of bizarre rates.
