Greeting Card Paper?
Redneck

I have to say, I am a little disappointed.
I've ordered 8x4 flat "greeting cards" for a customer. What I've expected to receive were real "greeting cards" (pretty much as you can buy them at a store). Instead the "cards" are made of regular photo paper (with a mechanical print line on the back instead of fine lines for custom text) while I was thinking of some kind of paperboard.
This is not more than a regular photo print with a "christmassy" frame.
Maybe my expectations were to high. Anyway, I'm not sure if my customer will accept these prints.
That might be a nice loss and/or a disappointed customer with 150 cards. :cry

This is the standard 4x8 greeting card method that has been in existence since probably the 80's.
Most people expect this paper and will not be disappointed unless you told them it was going to be on card stock.

I'm going to hand out the cards to my customer tomorrow. Maybe she did'nt expect what I did.
Sorry and thanks.
I ordered some 4x8 flat photo cards as a Thank you card for my wedding and what I got were just photo prints on regular photo paper. There's no way I'll hand that in to my guests.
And yes, if you follow those two links it's explained that it's a photo paper for smaller and card stock for bigger. But you forget to mention that anywhere in the process of ordering these cards. So if you don't know it and expect an actual card - there's no way to find out about that until you actually got them and went to forum to search for 4x8 flat photo cards...
Definitely want my money back or print them in bigger size as ACTUAL card for no additional cost.
We guarantee every single order so please write our Support Heroesand we'll get you fixed up! Thanks
