How long does an order take?
It moves with the season. The pattern worth knowing: September and October are comfortable, and the first two weeks of December are not — which is the whole argument for ordering early. If you have a hard deadline, put it in the notes with your order or call 833-682-8250 and we'll give you a real date rather than a hopeful one.
Do I have to buy a proof?
No — you get a proof either way, free. You see it when you place the order and again with your confirmation. What you can buy is more time and more certainty: $20 holds production until you have approved it, and $45 mails you an actual printed card before the run. On an order carrying a logo, one of the two is cheap insurance.
Can you mail them for us?
Yes. Addressing is $75.00 per 100 — you send the list, we print the addresses on your envelopes. The full mailing service is $350.00 per 100 with postage included, and covers addressing, stamping, sealing and mailing from your list. Both are priced per 100, so a 250-card order is $187.50 to address or $875.00 to mail complete. Most people who have hand-addressed 400 envelopes once do not do it twice.
What file do you need for a logo?
A vector file (.ai, .eps or .pdf) prints best. A high-resolution PNG or JPG usually works — send what you have and we'll tell you honestly whether it will hold up at print size. Setup is $30 and we keep it on file, so next year costs nothing. The card and the envelope are separate setups, so a logo in both places is $60 the first time.
Can I see a card before I order?
Yes — a $45 physical sample puts the actual card in your hands before the run. Or call us and we'll talk through what's close to what you're picturing. We have been doing this since the 80s, so we can usually narrow 370-odd designs down to four in about five minutes.
