Has anyone used Vistaprint for business cards, etc. I have been on there and designed logo, etc. Just wondered what the quality was like and some of the stuff is offered free, you just pay for postage.

I have used them for quite a lot for personal and business use and I am a VIP member. Mainly on the business side I have ordered business cards, letterheads, address stickers, car signs and pens. The quality was very good. I have since used 123print.co.uk. I compared the prices and they were cheaper so I gave them a go. They delivered the next day (usually waited 4 days to a week with Vista) and the delivery was cheaper (paid about half the price of Vista). I think that I will continue ordering from 123 because although the quality with Vista is slightly higher, 123 are cheaper and faster to deliver. That is my opinion anyway. I couldn't find any faults with Vistas quality or service, I just chose the cheaper of the two at the moment as I am just starting out and want to keep my outgoings down. I hope that this helps.

I have used vista, i purchased postcards, business cards, from them and they looked really good quality. I have never used 123 print but may have a look at what they do. What i liked about vista is that once you purchase say some business cards, they send you emails to get freebies which is how i managed to get 100 postcards and only paid about 3.63 ish for the postage and also it lets you select other freebies such as door magnets and stamps on your way to the check out which is brilliant!

I am not sure if this is too late but I used www.goodprint.co.uk who were really good, very efficient and not expensive. I even ordered for next day delivery 3 minutes before their cut off time and my business cards arrived next day.

Mark

Well, I've always used Vistaprint and found that they have always been really good (except for the delivery). I have now learnt a lesson by reading all your posts on this subject and think I eill check out the others like 123print. Thanks !

Just thought I would let you know that GoodPrint currently have an offer of 60% off business cards which runs out tomorrow.  Code for discount is TPL384. 

Not used GoodPrint before but decided I couldn't let such a good offer pass me by and as Mark recommends them thought it was worth trying.

Regards
Jane

I used Staples for mine. You can stand with the operative and design your own cards etc. Price was good and delivery fantastic, you collected them there & then!

Peter

Hi Jane

60%, that is a good discount. I am sure you will not be disappointed but it will be interesting to hear what you think of the service as well.

Regards

Mark

I used to use Vista and then tried 123print but I have now gone back to Vista, they have loads of great offers if you are a VIP member and the quality is great, although the only down side is that if you don't spend a lot of money, the delivery charge can be a little high. The quality is well worth it though in my opinion.

Received my busiess cards from GoodPrint yesterday and I am really impressed with the quality and service. I owned a printing company for 10 years so my expectations were quite high and they certainly didn't disappoint.
