I was wondering if any fellow Kirupians had the low down on a company that is able to print Full Color Catalogs? I havn’t had any luck locating a good company through a web search, as the ones i do get ahold of are extremely incompetant. It really is frustrating, because i know that there are companies out there, but i just cant connect with them… 
Does anyone have any suggestions?? :h:

I am guessing you have already tried Kinko’s I think a few larger UPS Stores (formerly Mailboxes, etc.) may do brochures also.
What volume?
There are a few companies I use on the east coast.
One called Synergy Graphics just north of boston. They are both a sheet fed and web print shop and are very competitive price wise.

And the site is in flash! :to:
No I didnt design it
I am guessing you have already tried Kinko’s
no actually, i have not stooped to that level… 
I guess i didn’t clarify enough… I am going to need atleast 10,000 Catalogs, at about 180 pages each, with a cover. If Kinko’s could handle such a job, i would hate to think what it would cost, considering that one color copy is about one dollar… ::shudder::
Thank you all for the suggestions, i will look into them…
Well if you do decide to call synergy for a quote
Ask for Kevin Lentini he is the VP of sales and let him know you were refereed to by Matt Beston. I have worked with him for years.
“Matt Beston from Boston Mass” haha thats funny…
alrighty then!
I never saw it written in a sentence like that.
That is kinda funny :lol:
Makes me wish that when my great great grandfather immagrated in Ireland way back when they didnt remove the “O” from “O’Beston”

Make you laugh, then grab an axe and chase your ***
just to get a fresh coat of blood on his Jason Mask…
ok, i couldn’t help myself…
::claps with psychotic excitement::
:love:
Well, i called Synergy Graphics, and left a message, and also sent in a quote inquiry to speedcolor… we will see what happens…
Another company that i requested a quote from said that for what i want it would be about $50,000… thats for 10,000 Full-Bleed, Full Color 180 page catalogs… works out to about $5 bucks per catalog…
Do you guys think that spending a bit more for a full color catalog is worth it, or would it be wiser to save money, and stick with the black-and-white style??
Well its been a while since I sent anything to a printer in that volume but 50K seems a bit steep for four color.
A few years ago 4 color was wAAAAAAYYYY more expensive than 2 color but its a lot more comparable these days.
You also might want to check out canadian printers they are typically 30% less.
These guy Warren Business Graphics I had in on a quote were way cheaper than any US printer I had quote.
tel:1-781-647-7760 - The guy I met with was Francis Warren.
Here is the quote…if you do the math without price-breaks it would be around 25K for what your looking for :beam:
I spoke with my printshop - taylored printing - in Yorktown VA, They do most of the print work for Busch Gardens in Williamsburg. He said that sounded a little low for the qty. and size of the job. Plus you are going to have to factor in shipping costs -which are going to be huge for that much weight - into the total cost per piece. I think you would be better off looking somewhere local.
Here is his number if you want to give him a call - he’ll work up a quote for you.

This was something else that was mentioned… Getting that many units from anywhere but locally is going to be expensive…
Again, thanks Fester, and Tobydog…
