Default Persnickety Prints

This is my first post here, but I have been a "lurker" for a long time. I LOVE Designer Digitals and have just found another love. I placed my first order at Persnickety Prints, based on some of the posts I read here, and was totally shocked at how fast my order was ready and on its way. It arrived today and I am SO happy with the quality of the prints.

When I first started printing, I did it myself at home, then thought I was pretty smart when I started printing at Costco. But now I will always use Persnickety Prints. Thank you everyone here that "pointed" me in the right direction!

Hi JoAnn, I'm so glad that you posted and it is nice to see that you are from Minnesota . I will second your opinion on Persnickety. I have been over-the-moon with their quality and speed. I'm so glad that you found them!

Hi JoAnn, I'm so glad you posted this. Because I too have not long ago received my first order from Persnickety and I was so excited. Firstly the flat rate postage to Australia was brilliant, but the actual prints are just stunning in quality.

Prior to this other printing I had was done in books (shutterfly, blurb). Now I know it may be hard to even swallow this in the US, but I have only had two 12x12 pages printed previously over here which I have had framed for gifts. And ... ready ... they cost me $19.95 EACH to print. I am not kidding you.

There's probably other places now in Australia to print, I know there are other photobook places here now, but back then I knew no better. So even Persnickety's flat rate postage was cheaper than that, so I am completely sold.

Hope to see more posts from you JoAnn. So glad you've come out of lurking

I received my first order from Persnickety prints last week and I was thrilled with the results! The quality was fabulous...and I can't wait to order more! I also was surprised at how fast the prints arrived.

Add me to the list of Persnickety Prints lovers! The quality of the prints and their speedy service make them my #1 print favorite. I got an email from them a couple of days ago that says they're having a Cyber Monday sale--sounds like a great time to get some more pages printed there!

Im getting confused here... are we talking 'photo printing', 'scrapbook page printing' or 'photobook printing'....

Im dying to try their photobooks, but they don't deliver international... ;(

I LOVE their 10" x 10" photobooks (which I used for my latest travel album). I just wish they posted internationally ...... :-(

Add me to the PP lovers list!!! It was the quality of the print that convinced me that I could make the switch from paper to digital and be happy with the end result!!

I've never ordered from them but I have a friend that has. The pages she's had printed (individual layouts) have been gorgeous!

Default Persnickety Prints (again)

Sorry I wasn't clearer on what I had printed. I had 8 X 8 scrapbook pages printed. I have a granddaughter that's 23 months old, so I have been doing pages of her since she was born. One of these days, I'll get brave and try to figure out how to post some of the pages. Mine are all done with Designer Digitals items so I would just have to see how diligent I have been about documenting which items I have used on the pages.
