Can you recommend a high end business card printing company? I have used vista print but the paper quality is not that nice...

Any recommendations?

I've gotten some cards from moo.com and am very pleased. The card stock is nice and having the option to put your own pictures on the second side is pretty cool.

I think you can request a sample pack from them to check them out.

we have had this converstation before. I use overnight prints. They use very thick cardstock. My test is this...put it in the back pocket and sit on it very several hours....it must past the "still look nice and not bend" test. They also do rounded corners for a very small fee. word of warning though....they aren't really "overnight" count on about 10 days.

+1 on local print shops.
Most can do foil, round corners, different stocks, custom sizes, etc. Plus, often times you can do a press check for final approval.

I have a recommendation for a local print shop in Ft. Lauderdale. They used to be Luice Designs but recently changed to Cat5ive.

Cat5ive Specialty Offset Printing - Foil Process, Silk, Matte, Spot UV, Foil Stamping, Metallic Inks - Business Cards, Plastic Cards, Postcards, Brochures

They are exceptionally cost effective and can handle all manner of job. They offer metal, plastic, die cut and a host of other specialty printing.

I did my cards through them and over the web. They were great to work with. If you're on the north side of Miami, they shouldn't be too far from you.

Just order with 100 lb paper instead of the standard.
