Vista Print - Amazing Cheap Deals

[sweetmikem]

Hi Everyone,

Thought I would let you know about Vistaprint.ca and vistaprint.com

These two websites offer tons of products that you can individually customize to your liking. The great thing about these sites, if you sign up for the email distribution, they send you a new special offer every week with most of the products free for only the shipping. I know it sounds too good to be true, but it really is. As long as you wait for the special, the deals are amazing.

My wife and I have personally ordered: business cards, flyers, posters, our wedding invites, pens, stamps, t-shirts (upload your own pics), etc. Most of the time we only pay shipping, or maybe a few dollars to get an upgrade. Shipping is reasonable, we never pay for the rush anymore as most times the standard shipping goes really fast any way.

Well, hope that helps somebody!

So....what are the hot deals :confused:

I ordered business cards from there

I chose their highest quality of everything, uploaded my design and their "high quality 100lb paper" still felt like something i could buy and print on myself.

The saving grace was that I talked to customer service and she refunded me back by money minus shipping, and let me keep the cards also.

Ended up paying about 10 bucks for 1000 (albeit low quality) business cards.

On the other hand, my girlfriend got a nice bag with our photo on it, and she was happy with the quality...

Yeah I ordered 250 premium business cards and found the quality mediocre.

I ordered the premium glossy cards and thought they were great. Without the glossy they were so-so.

I ordered the post-cards last year as my wedding thank-you cards (put a wedding picture on the front side). Made for very cheap thank you cards, don't remember the exact price but maybe like 5$ for 100 cards (I think they were free and I only paid shipping).

I think a lot of older RFDers remember vistaprint and ordered from them before... Not so much for their products but to join athome... haha. :D Sigh I miss them so.

If you shop around any major city, you will find better deals. I recently found BC trade printers in Vancouver. $30/1000+ full colour cards. Fantastic quality and they care about their work.

I wonder if the premium business cards quality depends on the graphic printed as I've received some nice quality ones for my first few batches, and when I used a different design the quality didn't seem as good for some reason. :confused:

Overall I'm quite happy with Vistaprint considering the price. I think you have to adjust your expectations accordingly.

I mistakenly ordered 1000 high quality business cards from them. I uploaded my own design. The quality of the print is far from "high quality" and the paper thickness isn't the best either. But for about $15 they are cheap. I use them for unimportant people that are unliking to help my business (traders, security / concierge etc) and hand out premium cards for potential clients.;)

I have ordered return address labels and a return address self inking stamp from them. They always have these deals. I was very satisfied with the items I ordered.

I am not a big fan of vistaprint. They are okay for starter cards. But the quality is very cheap.
I am now a reseller for a company that sells 16pt cards..PM me for pricing

Or you could use uvcards.com they offer the same quality as mine. I usally go with 16pt, spotted UV on a matt finish

business cards = so-so
but
great pricing on other types of specialty printing, like custom envelope address stickers, etc.
