There's no typewriter repair resource anywhere in metro Detroit like F&G. Is one of your function keys jammed? Go see Paul. Imprecise key strokes? See Paul. Trouble advancing your typewriter's ribbon? You know what to do. For $28, Paul will diagnose your problem and call you with his diagnosis and estimate. If you want to proceed with the repair, he'll apply the diagnosis fee against your bill. His right hand office assistant - Peggy - is terrific. And F&G sells refurbished machines, too. Highly recommended.

I never write reviews, however my experience with F & G Business Machines was so horrendous that I hope I can prevent others from using this company. When my printer broke (just out of warranty) the manufacturer suggested that I take it to one of their authorized service centers for repair. The closest service center to my house was F & G. I dropped my printer off in early July, and had to follow up multiple times with Paul (the owner) to get an initial quote. I was ultimately told that Paul attempted to order my part but could not get it. However, he would keep on trying and provide me with an update as soon as he was able to order the part. I waited and waited (and meanwhile called the printer manufacturer to confirm that there was actually a part shortage). Two months later, Paul called me back with no recollection of our previous conversation. He did not recall attempting to order my part, and perhaps even worse, his quote the second time around was higher than the quote he provided in July. Moral of the story - I waited a total of three months and there was zero progress. I just purchased a new printer. Avoid this business at all costs!
