Where to order some business cards online

I need some very simple personal business cards (ie: ones not associated with my current employer).

Any recomendations for where to order these online? There are a lot of places that do this (according to Google) but a lot of them seem rather skeevy.

    Don't you have a print store near you? If you're in Canada, you can just walk into Staples or use their online service.

    I've heard good things about PrintPelican (though I've never used them.)

    Alternately you could just use your local staples (they have online submission) or any other local printshops.

    EDIT: Should clarify, I by no means recommend using Staples to ANYONE. Their print services are terrible and often make you wait over a week for what should be very simple 10 - 15 minute job. Most people who use them only use them because they don't know about anywhere else, you should really find a local print shop to use instead as they will almost definately be infinitely better.

    I've used overnightprints.com and never had any issues.

    Kinko's did me right

    Not sure if you can order online, though.

    we used vista print recently for some business cards... they were a good price but only soso quality (not centered properly when they were cut or something)

    I guess your mileage will vary with Staples, as I've never had a print job take longer than a couple of hours.

    Let me tote the company line for a bit.

    First off Kinkos is now called FedEx Office, but they/we still do the same things.

    http://www.fedex.com/us/office/

    You can order business cards (and a ton of other stuff) there. They have some templates you can use as a starting point or you can upload your own design. The templates can be edited some through the online tools. You can get one sided full color cards for pretty cheap. If you need it double sided it is an extra $20. All the cards are full bleed. They only do flat printing though, no raised ink. Minimum order is 250 for business cards. They will take 5-7 business days and can be shipped to either your house or your local FedEx Office for pick up. You can rush order them for an additional $20-30 (I forget how much off the top of my head) and they will be at your location of choice in 3 business days. There is some fine print to that like the order has to be in by a certain time for the day of the order to count towards those 3 days. If you decide to go this direction and have any questions feel free to hit me up in a PM.

    -e- That being said the last time I ordered business cards I ordered from Vista Print (a year or so ago) and they turned out really nice.
