| Business Cards
I saw a couple threads regarding this but they were a few years old. I want to get some high quality business cards made from a LOCAL company. Looking to deal with someone in person, not online.
I work with a large number of people and we will be placing a lot of big orders through whatever company we end up going with. I don't check this forum so just PM me if you own, work for, or know of a company that would be suitable.
Thanks!
*We already had a logo designed for us, just looking for printing*

I had my own cards printed at Trendz Print Media near Victoria and 41st, I was quite pleased. I will be going back to them when I update my card.

Interpro Printing at Empire Center in Richmond does all the cards for my company.
Great work, great quality - prices were good too, given that you can talk them down a little bit.
Delivered in less than a week

I use this: Clubcard
I suggest visiting their shop too.
I haven't used these guys, but they were my 2nd choice (or Plan B) had my first choice (above) not work out as well as it did. Jukebox |

Wow thanks for the links! I'll probably just get a sample of a couple hundred for myself... upwards of 10,000 easily when we find the right place and price though. I'll go through the ones posted and let you all know who I end up going with.

make sure to get it subtly offwhite, tastefully thick and add a watermark.

I've used Club Card before, they're not bad. We've been using Made in Print recently though. Good prices and service. http://www.madeinprint.ca |

Very good quality and very professional service | I've had some extremely disappointing experiences with blitzgear. Recommended them to a client who felt that they did not care whatsoever about the business.

I went and talked to madeinprint today, they were really helpful and gave me a bunch of samples. Pricing is a bit high but I like the company and product, so we'll see... If not I'll get in touch with Unico, their regular pricing is pretty competitive, and they seem willing to work out a deal.
