Ok……..we are now printing our wedding card insert, so that after the 7th month, we can start giving out invitations le……1st day of 8th Lunar Month is on 1 Sept 2008……..which means i got abt 6 weeks before wedding. Jus nice right?
Anyway…….i’m quite pissed wif the wedding card insert printing….Actually we were referred to T-Dragon by our banquet, and we did went, but by then it was already 4 days before 7th mth start and my mom says no decisions are to make during 7th month, u can plan but not decide……EVEN DECIDE LET WHO PRINT also cannot!!!! so we oni got 4 days to decide~
So…… we went and then was quoted 200++ for 300pcs. We actually wanted since they already got the layout and everything just that THEY ARE REALLY VERY BUSY LAH, tat gal was actually attending to 4 couples at one go. See how busy she is? Cuz she really got alot banquets/restaurants tied up wif them.
Anyway, I was printing inserts, not onto the cards, so….200++ k for hot stamping lah.
And before leaving at 5pm, the guy who used to print namecards for my co finally called back and i did told him i wanted to print, so he was eager to meet me the next day. Thus we didnt confirm on the first day! we wanted to compare and see how.
So this guy, G, he quoted me 140nett for 300pcs, but it’s jus printing, not wat hot stamping lah, which i think is good enuff… so of cuz take right?
in the end, we were told we have to provide everything for him lor…… the english and the chinese. And while at TD, i saw ppl jus need to change name, then add 10 for 1 logo and another 10 for another logo. so 20 for 2 logos k…pay more do less?
okok, i tot i can jus copy and paste so i send him the first time. he says cannot come out will be blur, cuz i scanned the sample i had and cut and paste the 2 samples he gave me.
2nd time……i finally did a very nice one and retyped the whole chinese part for him (spending the whole night)……. he says ok, but cannot insert clipart cuz my clipart not 300dpi……KNS, wah biang, u early say lah, u think i know the clipart got how much resolution meh.
and also, in betw he was MIA-ing for 3-4 days or 1 week?
Finally, last night, dear robin worked his night away to rearrange and making sure that all are in 480dpi, and all fonts/characters are editable, so no lost of resolution.
he did send us a copy of the insert and super imposing onto our wedding card. so far it looks nice……
Now wif fingers crossed, i hope he can deliver to us on 1st sept 08 wif wat we expected!
Please bless us!
