vistaprint stuff isnt to bad tbh, the free stuff doesnt look 100% great but the card isnt wafer thin dude.

Your best bet would be to search for a local company and go and have a look what they have to offer in person. I wouldn't want to go off other people's recomendations as their thick may be your thin etc. :)

Vista stuff is pretty good if you upgrade to the premium card.
Otherwise, if you want better quality cards, consider matt laminate or even plastic cards.
What sort of quantity are you looking at ordering - I can then advise on aprox prices.

My missus got some from vistaprint, they're alright TBH. Pretty sure they were free, just had to pay a couple of quid for postage.
It would be bad for business if they were utter shite as you wouldn't go back.

Vista Print are good if you get Premium ones as said, the matt finish is crap.
Have you got your own design?

There pretty damn cool if your looking at getting really good quality business cards. £150+ for 100 though but would make a very good impression imo!!

Them free vistaprint ones seem shit. Someone gave me one the other day and I thought he was well gay.
I can totally relate to the bit in American Psycho now Ive seen it. Muahahahaha.
I would go somewhere local personally.

had loads done from printing.com, theres prob a branch near you, they are everywhere. If you get them friom there 'matte laminate' ones are the best. Really good quality and thier designers are really helpfull too if you dont have your own artwork.
