Spotlight Business of the Month:

Steve O's Postal Place

This packaging and mailing shop with 5 Internet stations on G St between 2nd and 3rd Avenue (a block east of Ralph's and a block south of Horton Plaza) in the Marina District in downtown San Diego.

Steveo Postal Place 255 G St San Diego, CA 92101 619-702-9403 It is a friendly and decidedly locally gay owned business where the staff knows all the regular customers by name and actually help them save money rather than always pushing for the more expensive services they don't need

The airy shop (not anywhere nearly as cluttered as the other postal shops in the downtown area) is sort of tugged away from the heavy foot-traffic of the Gaslamp Quarter and so you'd rarely have to wait long to be helped or pay for your stuff there. This place does practically everything you'd want a postal/shipping shop to do... even public notary service by J Hughes Tax Preperation.

The right side of the store houses the rental mail boxes. They give you a street address rather than a PO Box for very reasonable 3 months rate (minimum rental period). $42 for small box, $51 for mid size, and $72 large box for those of us bent on subsidizing the US Postal Service. Steveo Postal Place will even receive and hold a package for you for a fee ($10 per box and $5 per envelope) even if you don't have a mail box there.

The front and left side of the shop display the public internet use computers and two copiers, a neat arrays of stationary, gift wrap and cards, shipping boxes, bubbles, mailers, and other mailing products (not a lot of brands to choose from, but the price is alright). They offers professional packing service if you don't feel like coping with how to fit unwieldy round things into a square box... or something like that... while keeping the package's weight down. Steveo is a FedEx station and ships via FedEx, UPS, and USPS (US Postal Service). As a Pride Card holder you will receive a 15% discount on all retail purchases and FedEx and UPS shipments.
