    I would check local printing places too, not just the online companies.

    I've used OvernightPrints.com on several occasions and have been very happy with the turnaround, price, and quality.

    Vistaprint is the best and there are always discount codes floating around the internet.

    I am curious as to why you want to get the cheapest quality business cards? When you hand them to anyone they will know they are cheap and that could have a negative impact on how serious people take you. Watch this youtube link regarding what Joel Bauer thinks about cheap business cards:

    http://youtu.be/4YBxeDN4tbk

    Im not saying you need a card thats $5.00 per card like his just not dirt cheap. It needs to stick out among the thousands of other cards the people you will hand it to receive. Make it so your does not end up in the trash.

    Almost out of my last batch of business cards, and seriously contemplating not getting new ones. Seems like the people who want to take your card are not worth pursuing, and the people that want to take action do so without the need for a card. Maybe that's just my experience.

    I have ordered from gotprint.com a few times and have always been happy. They do a real good job and you can get 5,000 cards for less than $50.

    I just paid $70 for 500 cards from a local printer. I am willing to pay a little more than some people because a business card, like anything else is a reflection of you and makes an impression. I do not think that is outrageous as I do not hand out a card to everyone I meet and 500 will last me a while. My printer also has done wedding invitations, party invites and has spent hours helping us with some great designs...so I have no probably paying a little extra.

    I've used Vistaprint several times. But as others have said - Do you really want cheap business cards. I go to many trade shows and see these handed out with a yahoo email address. The idea is to present yourself as a real business.

    I got 1000 2 sided (glossy& full color on both sides) for $20 on ebay with free shipping.

    I emailed them my art and they we came in about a week. They were beautiful...similar to a postcard.

    They came from China.

    Ebay has a lot of printers in China. I have also had banners and stickers from china that I found on Ebay. All have been really good quality.

    I would rather support local businesses but their prices are WAY higher...like 2 to 5 times higher depending on the job.

    overnightprints, as Joshua Dorkin mentioned. I think they do a bang up job, let you design your own if you wish, have full bleed, great color, print on both sides, round corners, and don't break the bank. Their turn around is also great. In fact, I'm ordering more from them soon :D

    Mark Updegraff - I've seen cards far more expensive that aren't even close to as good in quality. While Curt Davis is right that cheap isn't always great, in this case, you get both cheap and high-quality. That's a deal I'll take every day of the week.

    I just got some from Staples.com, the design interface was identical to VistaPrint, but the prices were a little cheaper.

    For those reluctant to hand out expensive cards to "cold leads", why not have two different cards? The cheaper ones in your pocket go to the weaker leads, the better quality ones in your wallet go to stronger leads...just a thought

    For those who think you don't need business cards anymore, I have gotten calls years later from people holding my card until they had a need for my business.
    My card is a $100 dollar bill around the edge, so it's very noticeable. People may or may not remember my name or face, but they always remember my card.

    My business cards are a tri fold with front and back graphics and the whole card is slightly larger then a normal business card so needless to say it wont get lost with all the other cards people collect and then put a rubber band around and are forgotten about. I used a graphics designer to custom design mine and had 1,100 printed so the grand total was $1,500 and it was well worth it. I have not seen anything nicer.

    I would have to agree with several here in that the "cheapest cards" are not what you should be worrying about. Your business card is a reflection on you and your business. Do you want others thinking you have no money or credability, I don't. When I see a cheap business card, I think less of the person. Now, you can not always judge a book by its cover, however, you only get one chance to make a first impression so make it a good one.

    For full disclosure, I owned and operated a full service printing company for well over 10 years so I am a tad bias to quality of printing and I notice little things like ink coverage, if the card was cut out properly so all the text is perfectly centered, quality of paper selection, etc. While others may not notice that, many will notice a cheap black and white card. With technology today, you can get 1000 full color gloss cards on 14pt paper stock for around $69 at most printing companies these days. It is money well spent in my opinion.

    I have been useing PrintPlace.com for cards, brochures and post cards for 6 or 8 years. We use nice heavy full color cards. Easy to get a price from the website.
