Great Printing Company




Recently, I placed an order for business cards with Vista Print http://www.vistaprint.com and wanted to share my satisfaction with their services.

I usually don't advertise for companies, but they offer so many promotions and free deals, that it really is worth a look. You can up load your own images and get stationary, brochures, promotional items and even address labels. Proofs are available and I have been very happy with the quality.

Have fun!

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check them out. I also have had good results with www.ModernPostcard.com and use them for my business cards too.

Michele, please let me know how the quality compares to Modern Postcards.com ones you have placed an order.

I received my free postcards today and was really surprised to be able to see the canvas texture on the image I had submitted.

Good results from Vistaprinting

I ordered postcards to advertise a show I did a year ago. I got an excellent product from Vistaprint. And the cards were quite inexpensive. $30-$40 for 500 color postcards, I can't remember exactly. I was very pleased with the color on the postcard.

I tried to get them to print some square notecards for me. Because the square format was not something they were used to dealing with, it was very complicated and I ended up spending a lot of time on the phone with them. I finally ended up going to my neighborhood printer.

As a matter of interest, when I placed my order I was on the phone with sales reps in Jamaica. The printed postcards are actually printed and shipped out of Canada. What a small world we live in!

My only complaint about Vistaprint, and it's a minor one, is that after I ordered I was on their e-mail list. This meant I got some kind of promotional e-mail from them every single day! Sometimes twice a day. Arghhh! I finally called them (twice) and asked them to please stop! And they did.

Joan
