These guys where so polite and helpful. I needed some cards made for an art show I had that day. While they weren't able to print them on the spot(totally understandable and completely my fault for not being prepared) they did cut cards for me so I could hand write my own and charged me very little. The man I dealt with behind the counter I can only assume was the owner was vrey nice and polite. Any time that I have any printing needs in the seattle area I will go directly to them.

I got my family Christmas cards printed at Swifty and I couldn't be happier. The printing is so clear, the paper is thick and strong. I couldn't be happier with my experience!

We had a very important prospect presentation come up last minute. Ben was absolutely excellent. We had never worked with Swifty before, but they were the only ones able to meet our tight turn and the job turned out perfectly. I'll absolutely use them again and couldn't be more appreciative of the great service and quality.

The manager's comprehension of English was minimal, at best. I never even got around to asking my important question because he kept insisting on selling me an 8.5" x 11" print of a JPG for $11.00. No thanks.

I've been going to Swifty a few times for some small, but important (for me), binding and printing jobs. They're always so helpful and quick to turn the orders around. I'm glad there are still places around in downtown Seattle.
