Does anyone know anything about Vistaprint Christmas cards?

[Nina1]

They are having a sale right now...$1.99 for 20 photo cards. This is so cheap I was wondering about the quality. I usually order our Christmas cards through Photopass, but when I saw this price, I thought I might try it. I just don't know anything about Vistaprint. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Remember that you will be paying shipping, too. I know a lot of people who have been very happy with Vista Print. I'm not one of them. The only thing I've ever ordered was flat panel notecards with a border around them. They were cut poorly so that the border is uneven on about half the cards. They looked like something you would do on your own computer and cut yourself.

I ordered some Christmas cards from them one year. I was happy with how they turned out. They were the rectangular photocards. What I liked about them was that they were 2 sided color cards. On the front was our picture collage and some snowflake designs. On the back was a message and our signature. The one thing I will warn you about was that mine were matte not glossy like that photocards you get at Walgreens, etc. It didn't bother me but I remember being somewhat surprised by that. However, it does make signing the cards easier than those glossy ones.

I also ordered invitations for my daughter's graduation party from them with her senior picture on it and was happy with that order too.


I would order from them again.

We used Vistaprint last year for Christmas cards and we were very pleased. Like pp said the double sided cards were really great.

Last year my $$$ was very tight at Christmas so I used any code/deal/sale I could find to order holiday cards. I ended up ordering from VistaPrint, Shutterfly and SnapFish. BY FAR - THE VISTAPRINT CARDS WERE THE BEST!!! The quality was amazing, the colors were right on and since I used the same photo for each one I ordered, it was really obvious how the coloring changed with each different printing company. I got quite a few comments on the VistaPrint cards about how great they were and I really loved that they were double sided. Overall - VistaPrint was a HUGE WIN for me last year! I highly recommend it.

I've always been happy with the quality. I place orders about 4x/yr for postcards for my business. Remember there will be some add on costs--like envelopes and paying to remove their logo from your cards or envelopes. Still a good price overall. Access the vistaprint website through ebates.com for cashback on your order.

I just ordered my cards today, so I can't speak to the quality, but I did want to point out that they come with envelopes. I didn't realize that at first and almost placed an order for extra envelopes. I have used Vistaprint in the past and I was pleased with the quality (postcards and brochures for our wedding).

LOVE VistaPrint! I have gotten my Christmas cards from them the past several years, including this year. My order should arrive this week! They have so many photo card styles - I uploaded 2 pics to use. What I suggest you do is register with VistaPrint and start to create an item. Then leave it in your cart and log off. Shortly they will send you an email with an offer to finish your order. Also, once you are registered with them, they will continue to send you offers and they get better and better. I got 50 photo cards with free shipping for $20 this year!

I have used them for the past two years and loved them--and this is coming from a graphic designer who used to do print work. I love that you can get them on matte paper; JMHO but I hate the photopaper cards that come from Walgreens and whatnot. They just look cheesy to me. (Sorry)

I agree with PP. Create your card and put it in your cart, but don't order it. Once you log out, within hours they will send you deals. I don't feel bad about doing this because I use them for a TON of stuff for my business and they jack up the price on shipping so it's kind of a wash.

Long story short--yes, I like them!

I purchased from Vista print..little do they tell you they bill you in US $'s...then I got a seperate bill for VAT charges?? Whatever that was.... the invites turned out pretty but not worth the charges. Staples.ca just did mine this year and they turned out great! %11.80 for 32 cards with envelopes

I've ordered from them before & been pleased. This year they had a groupon I used for $70 worth of product for $17 plus an extra 20% off. I bought 5 calendars, 2 key rings & 20 photo Christmas cards. I wasn't thrilled with the quality of the keyrings but the quality of the calendars & cards was really nice.
This is my 2nd year ordering calendars from them. Its so easy & everyone loves them.

I've used them several times for cards and have been 100% pleased with the quality. They will try to sell you a whole lot of extra items when you are checking out. Be careful not to accidentally buy something you don't want.
The shipping costs are extremely high. You can save by planning ahead and not needing to put a rush on your order. You might get your order sooner than expected anyway. I ordered Christmas cards a week ago via their regular (21-day) service and they arrived yesterday.

Yes, I used them a few weeks ago and they botched my order horribly, took a long time to ship, then fought me for a correction.

I have used Vistaprint for several years and always had good luck. I use them for my business holiday cards and other promo items like mugs, magnets, etc. I also use them for stuff for DD's bday parties...I love it when I get promo emails for free invitations, notecards, banners, yard signs...I go all out and get DD's invites, thank you notes, a big birthday banner, and yard signs for her parties all for the cost of shipping which is WAY less than what the stuff has to cost. I've also used Vistaprint for FE gifts for Disney cruises and thank you notes to the ship's staff.

...just ordered invitations to my DD's Christmas party in a couple weeks and expect them to arrive today.

i use vista print a lot - shipping is not terrible I dont think and I really like what I get... I use the site for work as well as personal. I actually got my daughter some FREEBIEs from Vista for her sock this year and I am very impressed with the quality and the items... I have never been disapointed... (the tee's are thin but for free its worth it)

Thanks, everyone!
