Xmas card printing

Postby W00DY on Sun Nov 25, 2007 8:05 pm

Does anyone now anywhere you can get Xmas cards printed with a custom message on the inside and your image on the front?

Very good quality would be good also.

Cheers,

Hi Woody,

How many cards were you thinking of?

Hi Woody,

I could produce 40 of them through the digital printer onto a 310gsm silk card, with a celloglaze (matt or gloss) on the front for around $2.50 each.

The quality is ok, our offset printing would be better but unfortunately your quantity is well short of being an offset run.

I hope this helps you.

Tony,

That's a suprisingly reasonable price. What do cards cost in the retail environment - not the bulk jobbies that are garbage, but real cards? $5.50?

And thyou're selling custom, with a user's image on them?

Great stuff!

Hi Gary,

for small quantities like 30-100 we'd normally charge $5 to $8 each depending on qty requirements etc.

Hi Tony,

Thanks for the offer. When you replied the first time I did not realise you were in the business and could do printing.

I will work out what I need exactly and let you know.

Cheers,
