Does anyone know where I can get some thick business cards printed? I'm looking for a thick card stock.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

I just got some from gotprint.com

Full glossy color on both sides for $25.00 for 1000 out the door very good, thick card stock.

OvernightPrints.com has the thickest card I've ever seen. I've used them for a few years now. They are awesome... BUT they use the CYMK color space so be prepared for that difference.

Overnightprints.com is a great service - 08-20-2008, 06:11 PM


I have used Overnightprints.com for some time for both business cards and post cards - both are nice and thick but I do no knwo the paper weight. Their pricing is low enough that if you are unfamiliar designing the card and scaling the font and graphics, I suggest a small order as a test batch.
