RE: [UC] tailor/alterations - suggestions?

[Mayer, Ann]

So far, I have had consistent good, friendly service both for cleaning and tailoring from The place at 41st and Spruce.   And, if I picked up a coat from a cleaners and found evidence that the owners had given It to someone else to wear to a restaurant, I would demand that they give me the cleaned coat For free -- with a threat to report them to the Better Business Bureau and to the police if I did not get free service after they had turned out to be in a business other than that Of cleaning the clothes given to them for that purpose.    Ann Mayer   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jennifer Rumain Sent: Thursday, February 17, 2005 10:38 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; UnivCity@list.purple.com Subject: Re: [UC] tailor/alterations - suggestions?   Thanks.  Hopefully I will have better luck with White Seal than I've had with Farrar on 46th & Baltimore or Harvard Cleaners on 42nd & Baltimore.    I found myself having to go to Farrar's several times to pick up my drycleaning because it was closed during posted business hours.  I recently had a coat drycleaned at Harvard.  After receiving a ticket with a price of $12, I later recieved a phone call saying that the price was a mistake and it would cost $20.  I said I would just pick my coat up and take it elsewhere to which she replied that the coat had already been sent to an off-the-premise site to be clean.  Frustrated by this, I was able to talk her down to $18.  I picked my coat up this week only to find a receipt to a Korean restaurant (to which I've never had the pleasure of dining) and the exact change received from the bill in my pocket (unfortunately this was only 35 cents).   Needless to say, I feel violated everytime I wear that coat.

Can anyone recommend a good tailor/drycleaner in the 'hood? White Seal, south side of Baltimore just west of 49th, is very good at both.   Bruce McCullough Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
