Hi everyone. I'm a newbie to Hong Kong and I'm looking for somewhere where I can fax and photocopy things. Like a "Mailboxes Etc" type place. Can anyone help me out? I would really appreciate it. Very Happy

I seem to recall there were a few places on Wellington St in Central, but they might be gone now.

How exactly would you pronounce your name? Is it a Prince kind of thing?

Surpisingly, some of the smaller stationery shops anywhere will help you out. If not, find a nice office worker and bribe them! HA! I do all mine at my school...you can come see me if you need help!

Welcome to HK! Very Happy

^ Hey that's right! Stationery shops and art supplies shops also. Pretty cheap from what I recall. Stanley Street (runs parallel with Wellington Street) is packed with 'em.

If in an emergency with no stationery shop around, try to locate a hotel with a business cenre. They will fax things for a small charge.
If in Wanchai, you might try the Business Centre of the Exhibition Centre there.

Thanks for all the replies... I took Roger's advice and went to a hotel business centre, but got charged $45 HK to fax one page to the US Confused Is this about standard?? I hope not, cause I've got a few more things to send!!

Roger gave you some expensive advice. Just go into any shop and offer to pay 10 dollars a page. They will do it for you..

I found a place that was much cheaper than the hotel business centre. At the HK Central library they have payphones that fax... it was $15HK for one page to the states.. much better than paying $45 at the hotel Smile
