printing a calendar, any helpers?

[stooz]

Hi, doing a charity calendar, A3 size colour, about 50 copies.
Any printers reading that could offer me a price?

thanks in advance.

Talk to Broccers.

Going to be expensive if you're only doing 50 though.

I enquired at a printers about this, for a quantity of 10,000 you'd be looking at approx £2 each.

For only 50 it will be almost prohibitively expensive.

Cheers Ted.

How much better?

50 is not going to work with litho, period. Consider digital printing, or frankly, inkjet. 50 is really not a print run.

Spot on. Ive just priced up a job for CD case style desk top calendars with 13 inners 92 x 92 and for 50 the price is just over £3.00 each. Not bad.

Re the 10,000 run .... if you are seriously interested I'll get it quoted.

Broccers:

I would interested to see some example figures from you. We have just done a 10k run on oversize A3 calendars, and will be doing 10k of a 72 page brochure at the end of this month.

Cheers

No problems - Ive sent you an email for a couple more details.

For those that were interested :

A3 13 single sided leaves on 200 Matt Art with board back. All 4 colour 1 side and wiro bound short edge.

10,000 @ £ 0.73 each.

Price is obviously cheaper if you have just 7 leaves.
