->> I have a client that wants an image I shot made into a postcard for them. I'm looking for a quality, reliable source to have the image printed - postcard. Anyone have any advice/suggestions/recommendations?
Thank you in advance,

| ->> Try gotprint.com but I think the minimum is 100 for 9.95. They are very high quality though. I use them for all my postcards and business cards. |

->> wow, 100 for less than $10 is dirt cheap -- more expensive, but high quality is the west coast-based http://www.greenerprinter.com
might be worth looking at as an option, depending on what you're after |

| ->> I have used vistaprint, but watch out during the checkout screens, they have stuck an monthly charge on my phone bill for some sort of bogus service that they claim I must have signed up for when I ordered my business cards from them. I have also used Modern postcard, I've ordered a lot from them and they have always done a great job. |

| ->> Vistaprint is nice and cheap. The quality looks fine, but not like a photographic print. Also, last time I ordered, their postcard sizes are kind of weird (4.25x5.5). It meant I had to crop the image I wanted to use a whole lot to make it fit in their dimensions. |

| ->> I second www.gotprint.com - I have used them several times, and the quality is outstanding, the price is great and the turn around time is fast as well. |

->> I just had some cards done at http://www.uprinting.com
(business cards)
They did a really nice job, and customer service was even able to help me rush them through and get a super fast turnaround. Very pleased with the quality and the prices are fantastic. I just looked at postcards and they will do 500 4-color cards on 14-pt paper for ~$52. |

->> 2nd vote for UPrinting.com
They offer free proofing with a 4-6 hour turnaround, which is what sold me. You don't even have to enter a credit card or sign up for anything to get the free proof.
Quality is fantastic too. |

->> I love overnightprints.com
You can find coupons online too via Google for 10% off or Free shipping. I think the code is "freeship" or something simple like that. |

| ->> I used Vistaprint ONCE. The quality was fine. But !!! then they would not leave me alone. They bombarded me with emails . It was not worth the irritation |
