I've seen some photo business cards around and I'd like to get some made. Does anyone here use them and if so, where can I get some made at a reasonable price. Also looking at possibly using something in a index card sixe but I saw something recently at MOO that was a Polariod size. Anyone have any ideas? | | | | | Sponsored Links | Premium Members do not see Google advertisements. SIGN UP today and help support our community.

we did full cymk bleeds on our cards front & back and wanted the uv coating. we got ours from http://www.uvcards.com. We had two different designs and got 5000 of each for under $200. The colors were off on one and they are re-doing it at no charge, seems fair enough to me.
we would have used uprinting, but we couldn't find the uv protection for business cards, which is actually in a different section ("custom" I think). | | | |

I did my free cards from Uprinting, and loved them, but then I ordered my next batch from NextDayFlyers.com, because they had the best prices that week. (I made sure I was getting the same paper and coating as my others.) I ordered 100 each of eight different cards, because I wanted a variety....
They did a great job, and my favorite part: they sent me the overruns for the cards that they printed too many of, rather than throwing them away! I got the 100 I ordered for three of my cards, but I got 500 each of four cards, and 1000 of one of them!

Priced competitively with VistaPrint, but WAY higher quality.

I have used overnight prints and then got the free ones from uprinting.
Side by side overnight prints wins easily. There thicker/more rigid, colors look better, there cleaner cut on the edges and there UV/glossy coating is smoother and glossier.
I would get atleast 1000 made, they go quickly in smaller orders. Plus there cheap and usually lead to some kind of profit. | | | |

When I was in a job where I got a lot of biz cards from other people, the mini cards were annoying. However, I think because of their size they stand out (although they are small). For anyone trying to get creative, try a bookmark-shaped card or something along those lines. Won't fit in a Rolodex, but I'm probably the only person in the world who still uses one of those! | | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
