Printing is a dying trade, unfortunately.

I remember when it was considered a good trade to get into.


Yup! Company I work for, use to have 50 employees. Now we have 5. In the past 10 years or so, nearly half of all printing companies in the US have shut down.



Those "big box" companies, that market so cheap, there is a reason why, poor craftsmanship. We are a wholesaler of one of those big box companies, partly our equipment is getting too old, and partly cause they are cheaper. We've gotten things from them where the cut is off, folding is crooked or off, color mismatch, damaged product. Had to have them print and send more. This isnt limited to that company we use either. I've seen it elsewhere. The big box companies gang up and speed rush everything through. They cant count either. Folders where the pocket glue didnt hold, on thousands of them. Had to have the whole job reprinted by them.



Stick with your local printers folks.
I've come here to chew bubble gum, and kick ass. And I'm all out of bubblegum.

The last time we had anything printed was my sister's fancy wedding invitations and that was almost eighteen years ago.

Seems everyone posts things on Fakebook these days. Forums and printing both are dying! The things that least restrict our freedoms!
