''2005-12-30 02:34:41'' [[nbsp]] I've been to the Marketplace location three times now. Each time, I've found that the older man who works there was pleasant and professional while the older woman (his wife?) was rude and unprofessional. Each time I shipped a package, I was first quoted one price and then actually charged a significantly higher price to my credit card. I won't go back. --["GrahamFreeman"] ------ ''2006-07-07 10:38:10'' [[nbsp]] I want to like the Marketplace location. I want to like the couple that runs it. I keep going back wanting to like it. But everytime I get charged more than what I was quoted on the UPS website. The last time I was charged $2.50 for them to tape closed a 12 inch box. Probably 15-18 inches of tape. I could buy a whole roll of tape for $2.50 at the Safeway next door. It's close to my house and I would come back all the time, but their effort to get another dollar or two on every transaction has driven me elsewhere. They would have made more money off me in the long run had they not nickel and dimed me on little stuff. --["SteveLambert"] |

Incredibly, the UPS Store offers UPS shipping services. They ship USPS as well. A standard 37c stamp costs 50c here (they just lowered their prices for all USPS).
The Marketplace location is currently offering a couple coupons that can be found here.

2006-08-08 11:32:18 At the Marketplace: $6 for a realatively small box, wanted to charge me to tape it together, said boxes were non refundable. They gave the customer in front of me a hard time because they wanted the label reprinted because the clerk made a typo, eventually they reprinted it. I wont go back. —AdamMoerschell
2006-08-29 17:56:49 The Marketplace location is a joke... they too wanted to charge me to tape up a small box. I went back to my car and put masking tape around it and took it back. —PatrickFish
2007-01-14 19:36:05 (Marketplace location) This place is a serious ripoff! After standing in line for 10 minutes watching everyone else have problems with the staff and storm off in a bad mood, I should have left (alas I was desperate to get my packages sent off). Long story short it cost me over $40 to send two packages that would have definitely cost less than $10 at the post office. I dealt with the old man whose English was unintelligible, who was rude and incompetent, and who overmeasured the dimensions of my packages by several inches. NEVER EVER GO HERE! —AlexPerkins
2007-01-31 16:00:11 DO NOT EVER GO TO THE MARKETPLACE LOCATION!! I will never go there again. I told the manager I didn't want my item double boxed, because it wasn't fragile and it was already in a box. He tried to tell me, "He has to double box it or else it won't go out." BS. So, to send out a pair of shoes it cost me $35. Can you believe that? I'm never going there again. —LenaLim
2007-02-10 12:35:45 The people at the marketplace are still terrible. I went there and asked for copy prices, they gave me one price and then proceeded to copy my pictures on picture paper (not what they had quoted me for). I had to YELL at them to stop and they still charged me. I ended up paying $30 for 100 copies, because they made me purchase their mistake. —NatFin
2007-03-12 10:59:45 I was at the Marketplace store today. I recieved a coupon on my doorstep for $3 off air shipping....The lady behind the counter (i believe one of the managers) was very helpful. she not only honored my coupon for $3 off air shipping (as i sent something overnight) but told me next time I come she'd honor the same price for me even if i didn't have a coupon!...I also mailed out my taxes....and it seems that their US Postal service rates were alot lower than what they used to be......If this is a sign of things to come then i'm definetly going back to this store. It is within walking distance to my place and very convenient. Beats having to go downtown!
2007-03-14 17:05:42 The statement that the ups store does package recieving is misleading. Yeah you can pick up a package there, but only for a large fee (something in the neighborhood of 5-20 dollars depending on certain factors). Thus i always tell people to send packages Fedex so i can pick it up at the downtown kinkos for free instead of going to sac or wasting 5-20 bucks. —MattHh
