We
are pleased to offer a reliable week-to-week fast turnaround time
to all our customers. Average turnaround times are at least two
weeks. However we do get customers who need their cards faster
than a week and are willing to pay extra. Unfortunately we can't
do it.
The
reason we can’t print faster is quite simply cost! If we
do not gang-print everyone's cards on large flats you would easily
be paying $1000s for your business cards. Hence we have a weekly
schedule which is as follows:
After
collecting your files by Friday and getting you to proof it by
noon Monday, we prepare our flats to go to plate. On Tuesday your
cards are printed on our 6 colour Heidelberg offset press. On
Wednesday your cards are UV coated. UV coating enchances the colours
on your printed card and prevents ink from smudging and gives
a beautiful high gloss finish to your cards. This is an added
expense we incur that most printers don’t. On Thursday we
cut and box them ....and most orders are shipped out by Thursday
evening. If overnight shipping is requested you can get them by
Friday providing there are no delays with UPS. Otherwise you should
expect delivery to occur by regular ground service to take 1-5
business days from Thursday's/ Friday's shipping date depending
on how far you live from Toronto.
