I need to order 2016 calendars in large quantity.
Does anyone know any reputable printer which can do quality job at prices cheaper than Vistaprint? Unfortuantely, Vistaprint does not offer better prices for large quantities.

By the way, I am looking for a printer in North America. Thanks!

Did you look at zazzle?

i have used vistaprint as well as another called moo.
i got introduced to moo when fotolia gave us free cards with moo and to be honest,
i prefer the moo business card that i got free with fotolia
than all the business cards i made with vistaprint.
i don't know if they do calendars , but you can go check moo out.

You can check out these guys http://www.printpelican.com/ (http://www.printpelican.com/) We've been printing calendars with them for the last 5 years, usually between 1000-1500 a year, prices are pretty good, discounts for volume. We've yet to find anyone cheaper that is reliable. We got offered a cheaper deal through a middle man 2 years ago and it turned into a nightmare. Hope that helps.

Just speak to a local photo print place. Mine was LOTS cheaper, and really useful that he was nearby.

It really depends on what you mean by large quantity. Any local printer can produce it for you and the price should get lower with quantity. If you're looking for high volume like upwards of 5000 calendars, I suggest a specialist like Teldon Calendars.

BTW..they also buy photos for use in their template calendars.

Thanks everyone for the help!
I am happy with Vistaprint's quality, most of the time. When I was not happy, they were kind enough to offer a refund. This time, they did offer me a special deal, so I will stay with it.
Cathy, yes, I ordered from Zazzle in the past. The quality was not good. Zazzle made auto adjustment to my image which does not have 100% black, the colors were totally wrong.
Moo does not do calendars.
I will look into Printpelican, Teldon and GotPrint. Thanks!

Good to know. I ordered one of my own calendars one time to check quality, and I was happy with it, but I only ordered one calendar, and that was quite a while ago. I won't recommend them anymore.

I do like Visaprint - certainly from UK quality is very good. They do lots of offers - worth keeping an eye out.

you might want to talk to someone like canvasondemand or your local photo store who might have deals in that department.
