moo business / photo cards 2 Years, 5 Months ago Karma: 14
anyone try these out?

us.moo.com/en/

I put in 7 photos today with business card on the other side and ordered 50 business cards. 3-4 weeks until they arrive though.

I'm wondering what the quality is for the printing, and how clean/crisp/colourful they'll come out

That's a pretty cool idea. I have always had different business cards, all black with rounded corners, my RUFUSPHOTO lions on the front of the card and my info on the back in silver.

I used overnightprints.com and they are fast and cheap but if you put a few cards together for more than a week then the color starts to rub off.

I was always told that your business card should be recognizable if someone pulls it out from across the room.

I did the sample pack so we will see how that goes, estimated time to ship is September 3rd. Wonder why a full set will take up to 6 weeks.

I'll definitely post a review when the sample pack comes in, Brian, please do the same.

I would have also liked to try the recycled paper but i would imagine that the print quality would be compromised a bit.

I use 'em! (The mini's)
They aren't cheap, but the quality is way better than any other businesscard I ever got, and they really catch the eye - I think.
And 4 weeks?! Thought I read they had just opened a US store in Providence.

PS If you go with these watch out for the margins. Get that .psd template with the dimensions they put on their site somewhere.

yeah it is expensive, i actually have several boxes of perfectly good cards, I think I got 1000 made at one point, and I probably still have 800+ left. Just wanted to try something different.

I ended up combining my previous business card (info on the back, logo on the front, black vs white) into one side, and adding a photo onto the other side..

i'm mostly just curious more than anything to see the quality and peoples reactions.

i'll post them up when i get em

A friend pulled out a stack of his 50 to give me one and I was blown away by how good they look. He had a different photo on each card. The card stock and colours look awesome.
There are a number of coupon codes for 15% off, or free shipping etc. Brian I'm sure you'll be stoked on them. I'm going to order some for myself as soon as I get a chance to design a few.

I am definitely excited to hear that they are pretty high quality. I should have mine in hand at the end of the week.

I have used moo for a few things lately, good quality on everything so far.
Mini cards are brilliant, being able to have a different photo on each is great.
Greeting Cards are good, think custom thank you cards.
Postcards are again very good.

It is worth the extra cost if you are always happy with the result.
