Title: Printing Company Shipment VS your own shipment
Post:
Hello everyone!
Someone has chosen me to be the artist for a deck they want to publish and I also have my own that I am creating on the side. I went through the threads here (especially the recent ones) where people are asking for suggestions on good printing sources and realized something that has not been made clear enough, for me personally.
When you pick a printing company and you select the option of print-on-demand that means that the printing company is sending the decks out to your customers?
What if I want to purchase a deck (by demand) and have it shipped to myself? The only reason I would want to do this is because I am a big participant of the ATC trading community and feel that each customer should be treated individually. I would not want them to just recieve a deck with a book and perhaps a reciept. I like adding other goodies and things in the shipment to make it special.
Is this something that can be set up with the printing company? Or would I be better off just ordering the decks as needed from the company myself, then upon them arriving send them off to their true homes by myself?
Also... taking suggestions for good printing companies. I am also open to trading card printing companies as I have one that needs printing done. I have been looking at these two websites so far:
http://www.makeplayingcards.com/
http://www.choicesportscards.com/
I ordered samples from them... I'll post updates/reviews once they arrive.
I'd appericiate any and all feedback that this community has to offer! <3
