And you can get them from Vistaprint for just the cost of P&P. Their templates are quite good too.

We had our first business cards done by vistaprint, twice actually as the first ones were so bad. Both sets had thin card, despite picking the premium option, colouration varied a lot over the same batch, borders were inconsistently cut and the print quality was poor.

Depends what you want them for, but for is it was worth the little extra to have them done properly by a local printers. You very much get what you pay for with Vistaprint and if you are looking to make the right impression business cards aren't something to do on a budget.

I've been using Vistaprint for many years for both my wife's and my own businesses with no problems whatsoever.

Vistaprint lie about the cost of the cards and then mercilessly spam you. Personally I would use any other company except them.

Strong words, but I see no evidence that they lie. Initially the cards are free except P&P. After that, we order online and know exactly how much it will cost.

In what way do they lie?

I clicked on an advert with a very specific price, by the time I got to the checkout the price had increased.

I decided not to use them. It took the threat of legal action before they would leave me alone.

Seconded - never again!

Staples also print cards but I do not know if they are any good or what the prices are like.
