thought I'd pass this along

dang! great deal, but i have someone who prints them locally. thanks for passing it along though!

Seems too cheap to not suck

Slick deal if you do print your own, but highly suggest not doing that. I've never seen self-printed cards that have impressed me. They always tell me something about that person... but it's not a positive. My usual take is they really aren't serious about their business.

designed my own on photoshop and submitted my order

thank you!

They aren't print-your-own cards.... Office Depot prints them. But these are raised-letter cards, so the won't be good for my cards, because mine are photo cards.

But my sister is ordering some, so thanks for passing this on!!!

Ditto. Thanks for the post... and for correcting my mistake about them!

For $3 what are they like. Cheap

just standard raised ink cards... just happens that they are running a special, plus there are those 2 coupons out there that make them insanely cheap. I ordered 1000, I needed something quick and cheap for a couple of up coming projects, so I'll report back on the quality when I get them.

Quick and cheap marketing = quick and cheap clients.

Sorry to sound like an asshole. I know its a good deal but I responded to a good deal on cards once. Picked them up, looked at them in the shop and thought...hmm, guess its ok for the money.

Got them home and thought 'is this really the kind of image I want to portray?', was smart enough to bin them all.

Yeah, I don't think I'd want to put my name on these.

I tried it... 22 bux for 1000 cards on linen paper... its just text for me how bad can it be, I personally like the classic raised ink.

my mom owns a biz card company and i sent her the same file, will see which one is better...

lmao just the thread title made me lol

If you want event password cards, these might be helpful. Or not.

you'd have to be a lot more "harsh" for me to think you're an asshole. They're just to set up with the photobooth at a couple of weddings with the print site and passwords.

OK tell us what they are like. I need give a ways and for that price it is better than doing them myself on the printer.

just got my card in... very happy with the quality!

will post a pic in a bit... momz isnt in yet to compare but I cant rush free....

i got the Ivory linen paper and yes i made it with the print going off the edges...

linen + raised lettering? they look good

Nice, I will have to try a set for give aways at events. Can't beat the price. What was the turnaround time on them?

I ordered mine on the 6th... and they'll be here today

Looks good.

Sorry to say it though, you use gmail for your email address? I've always thought it doesn't look professional to have a free email address as your contact. That doesn't mean I don't use gmail though, I do, I just have my domain email set up on it...
