Default Photo Book printing

A few months ago there was a link to a huge review of all the different photobook companies out there. I know a lot of us went and checked it out. The man ordered and reviewed something like 8 different photobooks, including Blurb and Shutterfly. Shutterfly got his highest reviews, but he said it was expensive (as we all know - they have great quality, just try and get them on sale!!)

One of the companies that he also said was great was Inkubook. They had provided a buy one get one free coupon code with the article. So I am trying to get two large books done to print ( with the coupon you could get two 11x11 hardcover , 120 pg books for $100 shipped in the usa .. and it doesn't expire until 10/31/10 .. one offer per account)

Yesterday in one of the chats I mentioned them and I think it was Valerie that said she had printed there was was very disappointed with the quality etc. Has anyone else printed there? Heard any reviews? I would hate to get that many pages done and uploaded only to find out that their quality is not very good.

I would be very interested to hear anyone elses thoughts or opinions on this!

Thanks!
Katie

I would like to hear too, maybe I just got a bad one-but the pages just didnt have the same color and crispness of my Shutterfly books. And although they asserted that their paper was the industry standard, I like the weight and finish of Shutterfly better-maybe I have just become a Shutterfly snob? That and their packaging was such, that the book arrived damaged

I printed my India book there and was thrilled. The colours and everything were perfect! I plan on printing further books here. Valerie did you contact customer service re your problems? I have always received a great response to my questions.
