Angela, it’s so tempting to support local business for a wide variety of reasons… I struggle with it all the time. Like you I can’t justify it with business cards.

Hi Ann:

Thanks; I was thinking of going local until I found a design that blew me away. I paid $75.00 for 1000 B&W cards a few months ago! This is a big savings and a better product.

I use their postcards, as thank you notes. Have a space for a personal note, have my web site and some funny poem or whatever.

Their vehicle magnets are pretty nice too, lot cheaper than others I’ve priced.

Jeff, I’m so very surprised… my cards are normal size… at least here in the USA – and you’re in Atlanta… just measured mine against several others… a ReMax real estate guy, a veterinarian, a hair dresser and a chiropractor and all were within a nat’s eyebrow of each other, including mine… seriously, they are all the same size – which I think is standard – 2 inches by 3-1/2 inches.

Is it possible they made/sent you the wrong size or that somehow you ticked a box for the smaller size? Did they say anything one way or the other about the size when you returned them?

Anyway, I’m glad they refunded your money, but this does seem like a bit of a mystery to me… I agree cards of the right size are important… unless you’re trying to do something else, which obviously you aren’t.

DISAPPOINTED with VISTAPRINT…I just received my first shipment of business cards from VistaPrint. I am disappointed. The quality is great, however, the cards are not standard business card size and they fail to tell you that, they are smaller. Very strange indeed. They are more like those card inserts for Graduation invitations. My business card is my reputation in real estate and these cards with their tiny size are embaressing.

They did give me a refund today, so I am happy with them, but will not use them again because when I order business cards, they should be the universal standard size and they do not offer it. I wish they had let me know this before, I would not have ordered them and wasted their money.

I always use VistaPrint, it is an excellent service. When you subscribe to their e-mail messages you often get better deals than what you see on-site. This week via the e-mail link it is free premium cards (so the blank back is also included free). I’ve ordered hundreds of products from VistaPrint for myself and friends/family who needed some marketing materials. Always satisfied with what I get and the price I get it for.

I started to get the free cards, but then I decided to pay $5 or whatever it is to have a blank back. My husband is a web designer and he uses VistaPrint often for marketing materials, as well. It's a good thing they're cheap, because he changes the look of his business cards every few months it seems! Autumn’s last blog post..More Gamer Help

@Isaac – VistaPrint’s free cards are fine if money is tight. Their only price is you are doing some advertising for them. Their logo will be on the back of your business cards. If you don’t mind that, then go ahead. I want the back of mine to be blank for someone to take notes on. I’m willing to pay a few bucks for that.
