    Hi all,

    I've spent this afternoon looking at the website and have finally ordered my cards-500 for £22.14 and no advertising on the back! But I have to say it was a bit of a mission-lots of clicking here, there and everywhere. Nearly gave up but I got a 20% discount when I closed the website and a pop-up appeared to say 'Don't go-get 20% off'. I originally ordered 250 for about 15 quid and then another pop-up came up to say that I could order another 250 for 6 quid, so i did-but this only came up after i had processed my order.
    Works out to be less that 5p per card.
    But delivery is gonna take a while.

    we'll see what happens.

  • Hi abydx

    I have used vistaprint for a couple of years now. Once you have set up your card details, they are there for ever, and can be used for all sorts of other marketing stuff, magnets, post cards, thank you cards, labels, headed paper etc etc. - You can also have a free e-card to include in e-mails if you remember to select the option. - Yes, I forgot the first time.:mad:

    Once set up, they sometimes offer free p&p, free cards etc. Also, if you have others that want to use the same card details with different names etc. you can just edit the original. They will deliver in 3 days to 28 days - postage goes through the roof!

    Make sure, if you use them, that you check your information - I found it was well worth the small cost of an e-mailed proof - wish I had done it the first time.:mad:

    Finally, if you can bundle a few bits together, the postage cost per item is much better.

    All the best

    I thought it would too - but they arrived within a week. :D

    If they're anything like mine you'll be well pleased, a friend who had spent £100 on her's was green when she saw mine!

    Thanks for letting us no Deren 100% spam :)
  • I've used Vistaprint and they were excellent - cards free just pay for postage - there's a limited amount of designs for free but worth a look - I would guess you would find something to suit at the moment anyway - you can alwasy go for more expensive later if you want.

    Received my cards a few days ago and I am very happy with them-they look great!

    I payed £22 for 500 cards from vista print. I used one of their templates and it really conveys the kind of image I wanted (I'm offering Indian Head Massage and its important that my business reflects what I'm about-relaxing, therapeutic, calm etc).

  • Hi Pete,
    I do two types of business card, 400gsm matt satin card, which are £34 for the first 100 the another £5 per 100 after that, good quality/good price if you need 500 - 1000 cards, I also print on 250gsm matt satin card, they are £9.98 per 100 + £1.49 P&P (P&P is for up to 200 cards) which are the ones that Carl was refering to.

    cs,

    not sure where you are getting your prices from but it seems rather expensive to me to pay £34 per 100 ! 34p each!


    Cheers
