How much does it cost you to print that size? I think you're undercharging but would your market be willing to pay more?

[QUOTE=Jim G;5602852] I think you're undercharging quote]

So do we !!
We can get that for an A4 sized print...
cheers

Looks like you're right about Vistaprint - very dodgy. Anyone able to suggest anyone else for online business card orders?

Yeah I'm not too impressed right now... I ordered from them a week ago, the cards turned up today which was nice and quick... although.... the colour on the front compared to the back is waaaaayyyyy off.... it was supposed to be black with a hotspot in the middle but instead i got plain black on the front (which doesnt look too bad) and @#$ing grey on the back?!? what the? Oh AND they printed a little vista print logo on the back of the card when I paid for their premium cards?!? Now lucky me has to try and actually deal with them...

I think I'm gonna cut my losses, order elsewhere and reissue my credit account and then forget it ever happened....

Thats what happens when you believe the yanks who say that they are a good company. Then you find out the rest of the world they try and rip-off....

Looks like I might try your mob Michael.

The good news is that I sold my first soccer photo last night. The bad news is that it was to me.. I wanted to see what the sales experience was like from the customer's perspective.

Maybe someone's trying to tell me something - my home server failed to come back from a reboot today (failed power supply apparently,) which means the DNS records for my 'shop' are down too.

Adam, did you see my post about the business cards?

Yes I did, thanks.

$10 for 8x10 soccer photos, but then I'm yet to sell any either.

Watch your credit card statements! Apparently they're known for adding multiple small charges that you won't notice. People have resorted to having their cards cancelled and reissued to stop them.

I got the premium cards and they have no logo and i've had no other charges on my card from them. Maybe i got lucky

As i understand it they do the charges under another of their business aliases

Yeah I think its VPRewards or something. If i get one I'll cancel my card and reissue account.

Hoping that they will just reprint them properly without the logo, but I'm not holding my breath. I will continuously pester them tho, as it is my right and no skin off my nose to ring them toll free once a day until they do something about it.

The cards arent unusable but they are not what I wanted...

Oh and well done in selling your first soccer image Adam!! even if it was just to yourself I forgot to mention it before!

Michael!

track me please

Got my new toys!
