Configured a business card. For 1000 business cards shipping is $18.93 via UPS Ground. The shipping options go up from there. That really cools this deal down a lot.

Sure, it you want to support spammers (email and snail mail). Personally, I don't.

Cards are pretty thick, I have printed business cards before at VistaPrint, comparatively at ozoprint cards are a bit thicker and they laminate it as well so that should add to thickness and durability.

Business card I printed with them had good solid blue in the background which came out pretty decent, lot better then my old VistaPrint cards.

Hope I answered your question

$17 shipping is simply a rip-off, when it would cost them $4 max via priority mail, so that's how they're making money. They're certainly not sending them UPS Overnight... And I found the designs to be mostly tacky.

$4 max for priority mail? Do you live in a cave? Priority mail is more than $4 these days.
Priority Mail® Large Flat-Rate Box 12.95
Priority Mail® Flat Rate Box 8.95
Priority Mail® 4.60 - 15.85


1000 cards is pretty heavy and more bulky than what will fit in a flat rate container. I suspect they would be about $10 for UPS ground.

I just ordered 1000, with both front and back images (hey, if you don't like their designs, design your own). VistaPrint couldn't print an image with a black background on a black card (they tried twice, and both times the card came out dark grey, while the background of my image is black, looks like hell), and charges you almost $5 just to upload an image. Shipping for the Ozoprint order was under $15, no charge to upload, glossy AND laminated (VistaPrint's were just a flat finish, glossy was extra).

Ozoprint:
1000 full color, custom uploaded image, 2 sided cards, glossy and laminated, delivered - $20.41

VistaPrint:
250 color-mismatched, custom uploaded image, one sided, flat & lifeless cards, delivered - $11.71

Yeah, the VistaPrint order was for their "free" premium cards. You pick the better value.

A 5-pound package sent via Priority Mail would cost approximately $8.95.

I think 1000 cards would fit fine in the 1-pound $4.60 box.

any company that has a "relationship" with you will send you an email or 2 every now and then - have you gotten spam from the actual company without ever ordering from them? or do you just get a lot of spam from their affiliates?
don't be too quick to judge, we have ordered from them twice with GREAT success and not a lot of spam at all, as they have an "opt out" policy
and personally i have NEVER seen snail mail spam from them, so i'm not sure what you're talking about!

that's a pretty good deal, a colleague of mine says he has an order out for 250 glossy front and back, and i'm almost positive i heard him say it was costing him $50!!!!

FYI
Glossy on a black card ends up looking tacky. You should always do matte on black cards if you want to maintain a professional image. The reason is that fingerprints and smudges will show clearly on a black card with a glossy finish.

Unfortunately, VistaPrint doesn't just send you an email or 2 every now and then, they send them out every other day (if not more, I might have deleted them). No customer in the world has that sort of needs that they need someone constantly badgering them, whether there's an unsubscribe link in the email or not.

My point was $4.60 is more than "less than $4".

Would 1000 cards + packaging be less than 1 pound? I am guessing it would, but could very well be wrong.

Isn't the height of the cards taller than the width of the $4.60 flat rate box. Im sure you could cram them in, but they could get damaged. You want to have some padding. There might be a box that I havent seen that could do this at $4.60.

Has anyone used them before? How is the thickness of the cards?

I had to order some business cards for work and they were like $99 for 250 cards.

They were full color, double sided matte. I'm going to need cards for both of my businesses and my whole office.

So I need to find the best deal.

I'm not sure I receive the e-mails anymore (could be filtered through my ISP) but they used to call me on my phone too which pissed me off. It isn't like I'm doing their free cards which might make them think they're entitled to get something back.

I've been happy with the quality of the cards from VistaPrint, but I agree that their harassing of their customers is a big turn-off. I'd probably use them again once I run out of cards just because I pretty much custom made the whole card rather than use one of their stock templates and don't want to go through the trouble of remaking a new one elsewhere.
