Cheap business cards - any online recommendations?

Hello,

I'm looking for a decent and cheap online place to print a small run of business cards (250-500 cards). So far all those I've tried that are initially quite cheap for the cards and then they whack on huge postage costs.

Thanks in advance.
Dred.

    Depends what you regard as cheap I suppose and whether or not you have print ready artwork but I use Scubaprint - currently I think offering 250 for £20 inc. delivery.

    Very friendly, quick and helpful and the cards are a good quality.

    Thanks for that.

    I have all the art work ready so that might cheapen things a little ;).

    I'll try them, thank you.

    Have a look on ebay, you will find some smaller printing businesses advertising on there

    I paid £22-£24 inc p&p for 500 double sided cards from 2 different sellers that I found through ebay

    Vistaprint have also - allegedly - made unauthorised repeat withdrawals on customers debit or credit cards.
    The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life. :)

    vistaprint are cheap, but cheap is not always best and remember you are representing your company on that!, I get the one man band come in my business giving me a business card from vistaprint, I throw it in the bin, as I think if you going to go cheap on the one thing thats showing what your company is about, then you are going to be sloppy with your work. My advise in business is the better the business card the better.
    Kind Regards

  • Yeah, I had the same problem with vista print taking unauth payment from my account, but there cards are free, you just pay p&P.

    I also have some from moo cards, they were good, and reasonablely priced.
    I am pleased to give hairdressing help or advice, but a thank you doesn't go a miss.

    To be fair it is not true that the payment taken by Vistaprint are unauthorised.

    They just hide the authorisation in amongst other bits and pieces so you don't notice.
