    Making and selling calendars...

    Wondering if any of you have a good supplier for quality photographic calendars. I think I can probably move between 25 and 50 this year and want to get a head start on the christmas season. I just can't seem to find a good supplier...

    Thoughts?
    Its not that I suck at spelling, its that I just don't care

    What size you talking about? I've used shutterfly in the past for the family picture calendar (8.5x11 pages for about $17/ea), but if you're wanting to try to make a buck doing this you're probably better off printing pages separately and taking it to a copy place for binding, or get the binding tools and DIY

    There are better binders out there, this is 2 seconds of amazon searching
    I've concluded that DJSapp was never DJSapp, and Not DJSapp is also not DJSapp, so that means he's telling the truth now and he was lying before.

    Go with Vistaprint, and use their higher-end options for paper and printing. I've sold them as a fundraiser over the last 3-4 years, and I typically get my costs down to around $6 per calendar. The quality is surprisingly nice, and they do a good job with the photos I upload. Their software is super easy to use too. I've had the best luck with putting the images on a solid black background.

    I just looked up my last order, and it was $317 for 50 calendars, and that included "rush" $35 shipping. There are ALWAYS legit discount codes floating around the internet, too.
