Google, maybe?
Try Zoo Printing or Jakprints. I've used Zoo Printing before. They were fast and inexpensive.

I just got full color business cards printed by 4Over Inc, and I'm really impressed with how they came out, especially for the price. Their smallest amount was 100 business cards for about $10 plus tax (free shipping for the 100 count). If your friends want a small minimum amount, these guys will probably have a competitive (if not the cheapest) price.

Hmmmm! What could he be getting at? Maybe he's doing market research for Vista? I'm expecting to see a thread asking us what we like and don't like about Vista print.
Well, I'll make it easy for him. When I was uploading my postcard their website wasn't working properly (maybe the server was busy), then the next day, I started to upload again and it worked fine.

Well, then you and I (and many other designers) have a vary greatly on the opinion of quality.
The color quality alone leaves ALOT to be desired. When I run 5,000 blue postcards and about 800 are purple?? There is a problem - that's not quality. I'll never use Vistaprint again. For my non-profit customers, I use Overnight Prints. They are a better quality and FAST!
I used Zooprinting.com for a few jobs, but a shipping error left a client out in the cold and the technical support guy is a total arse. I had to call his manager about his attitude because that is how angry I got when dealing with him. However, the product is good and I'd use them again if they are considerably less expensive than the one I am using now.
I use 48hourprint.com almost every time for jobs. Awesome customer support and great service. They reprinted a business card that I thought was trimmed to close to the edge. They are great people to work with. I've used them for a custom project and it was a great experience.

So what do you do? Do you use the standard templates in Vistaprint, add text, print and sell, or do you upload your own designs and artwork?
