    So far, I have been very pleased with Modern Postcard
    (www.modernpostcard.com, 800-959-8365). They did raise their
    minimums for the 500 card orders, from $95 to $125. But, they now
    offer a 7 day turnaround time which I love (being a bit of a
    procrastinator!). 

    When Modern Postcard's prices went up, I tried Printserv Desktop and
    Press (www.printserv.com, 713-942-8700). Their prices were better,
    500 for $90, but I wasn't as happy with the clarity of the picture or
    the colors. To their credit, when I told them about the colors
    looking faded, they reprinted the cards at no cost to me and the
    colors were better. They also put their information and phone number
    on the card without letting me know (it wasn't anywhere on their
    website or order form) which bugged me. 

    Recently a friend tried printing cards at a local printer. The
    images were clear, but the quality of the paper used and the
    lamination technique were really crummy. Always get a sample pack to
    see what a company's postcards look like. Lori Bugaj
