Vista Print vs Overnight Prints

Vista Print vs Overnight Prints


I made a great investment just before leaving the USA. I bought 500 business cards with a whole new look and my contact info for Penang. I had a buddy in Penang buy a sim chip for my phone so I could get a cell number before I left the States. In this way, I was able to have the number for my business cards. While David Duchemin was visiting me in Texas, I managed to get the guy to design a new card for me (thanks David!). I used two different printers to make the cards; Vista Print and Overnight Prints. Both are very good quality. Vista was cheaper, but not by much. Overnight Prints offered something that most printers charge an arm and a leg for: rounded corners. The rounded corners make a huge difference in the over all look of the card. It sets it apart from other cards and that is what you want on a crowded desk top. These companies give you all kinds of discounts and deals, so just get on thier mailing list and be ready for a flood of mail, but some great deals.

    According to your breakdown, I think it’s more practical if you use Vista Printing. It’s more cheaper but the quality is good also.. Thanks for this info.. I’m sure this is a big help for lots of people..

    Thank you for this comparison, Rounded corners is a must for the type of card i am designing. Only, If Vista print offered that option.
