Had some hockey jerseys printed here and am very happy with how they turned out. If you need team gear, this is the place to go!

The team at Allied Photo is hands down the most responsive, professional and thoughtful of any print firm I have worked with. I highly recommend their services!

Report
Very Disappointing. I have used this lab several times with out ever being 100% satisfied. I went to doing my own color and density corrections because they were never consistently accurate. I had left special instructions on more then one occasion that were missed. The most recent mistake caused my account to overdraft and they offered to give me a lab credit when what I needed was the money replaced in my account.
My shopping cart showed one total and when I was billed a higher amount and the money was unavailable I was charged a fee by Allied. When I asked that they credit my bank not my customer account with them they said they thought I should be happy with a customer credit. I'm done! I do not recommend. If I had a wallet cutter I would have stopped using them a long time ago!

When you become a new customer you submit a test print and it they mail back samples on many types of paper so you understand the calibration and results. They give feedback on blacks and flesh tones so you have a good basis to start from. Joy, in customer service, worked with me on some exhibition prints and got them done last minute. Customer service is excellent. Give them a try.
