I have used them for several biz cards. I downloaded the template (for the size and bleed areas), created the card in Photoshop, saved in CMYK color space (tif format), uploaded the file and in about a week I received the cards. Color quality and quality of card/paper is good in my opinion.

I order all of my cards from them. I ordered a batch from Mpix while they were having the 1/2 off sale, and the color, print and paper quality of the gotprint cards was far better. Great price, great service, great product.

Sounds like a good deal to me man. I got mine from a local mom and pop copy shop (haha i rhymed). They did a great job and I thought it was a steal for $15 for 300, but if you have recommendations from people here and it's costing you $50 for 5000 that really is a steal.

I was thinking about how long it would take me to use 5,000 cards. I'd probably want to update the card with a fresh image before I ran out.

Just got my order of 10,000 for roughly $100. Can't be that. Full color on both sides. The UV coating wasn't quite as thick as the previous company that I used, but was still happy. The one thing I didn't like about it was they wanted the art in CMYK, which made my colors come out darker than what I had intended, but overall I was very pleased and will use them again in the future.

I have used them before and I would again. I like the quality and they have great prices. Only thing to keep in mind is that it will print out slightly darker than what you see on your screen...or at least for me that was the case.
