Never go here.

by wlschwing

NEVER NEVER NEVER go here. I'm not an unreasonable person, and I understand how hard it is to have exceptional customer service every time. However, this is unprofessional, and unacceptable.

Ballard Camera has poor printing, and poor policy. I recently turned in 3 rolls of film to be developed, and when I received my prints I noticed lines and scratches. I checked the negatives and they were ruined as well. I returned my prints, and they said they would reprint them, but assured me it was more than likely the fault of my own camera, and not their printing.

I got the new prints back and I had even MORE scratches and lines. I complained, and asked that my money ($60) be returned because my photos were now ruined. They told me that was impossible, and that they have a zero return policy.

If you enjoy paying money for ruined film, enjoy Ballard Camera

• Cons: Terrible staff, and awful processing.

I love Ballard Camera, I can't say that enough. I am an amateur photographer, and they've always done top notch processing for me. I've had some odd jobs done there too, such as prints from the 1940's, old school negatives, sepia printing, etc... it always comes out great. They also helped me solve some problems with slide film shooting I had... they seem to really know their stuff, and they're really nice and quick. The only down-side I see is that they close at 6:00, and often I can't get there by then...

• Pros: Awesome processing, Knowlegeable, Large stock/options
• Cons: They close at 6:00, Not a huge variety

Ballard Camera is a very service oriented institution. The staff is exceptional! You get professional quality photo finishing at a fraction of the cost of the pro-labs in town! I love there online photofinishing. They, also, have scrapbooking!
