Just got a delivery of them. (Christmas Pressies you know) Very good quality, blacks are really black, photos are all in the right place and apart from some of the blues being a bit dull the calendar looks great.

Recommended! (3 for 2 offer at the moment)

I see a plan...

All you people who love Steve's work, place your orders here biggrin

Steve...you charge what you pay for them, the 3 for 2 is your margin.

Peeps...you get a signed calender from the master, and you can tell your Mum (in all honesty) it's a signed limited edition, and you know the artist!

Wizard wheeze or coat-time?

Martin.

Flaw in the plan (unfortunately)

You can't order the calendar, as it isn't a product that photobox will put on their 'pro gallery' for sale to the public.

Also, it's £17 a pop, and far too expensive for a sad git from the Highlands.

Apart from that, it's a stirling plan.

Anyone ordering anything from Photobox at the moment, make sure you order in good time. They're extremely bogged down at the moment. I ordered some photo books nearly two weeks ago. I've had an apology but no photo books as yet! I'm sure the quality will be as good as usual once they do arrive.

Up until recently Ive only ever ordered stand 6x4 prints (family stuff) and A4 prints and they've always turned up 2 days after order

Maybe its just a long process for the photobooks???

Usually they're sent within 3 working days. Apparently they've been inundated with additional orders due their 2 for 1 offers etc and struggling to keep up with the orders! Doesn't matter to me as they're for xmas presents to plenty of time. IF anyone wants something sooner rather than later, just be aware that the delivery times are not up to their usual quick standards at the moment.

Anyone received their photo books yet? I'm thinking about doing one for each of the race teams I shoot for, on their black paper. Any good? Pleased with the quality etc?? Does seem great value for a quality product.

Cheers guys.

I've done several. For portraits, family events etc. they are absolutely fine. For posh Landscapes, the quality isn't quite good enough (due to the paper). Having said that I recently left one in the local hotel and several people have ordered them.... so just cos *I* don't think they are good enough doesn't mean others think similar.

As mentioned above, they have been doing 2 for 1 - that makes them MUCH better value, £20 is a bit steep IMHO

I've been disappointed by the photobook I ordered recently. There was a printing error and photobox were hopeless at sorting it out (yes I know they are normally very good, but this time the service was appaling) and they finally replaced it, but the quality still wasn't great imo.

Shame I missed the book 2 for 1 offer.

I've offered this service to the race teams...sounds like I need a sample first.

Thanks guys,
Steve

Photobox and delivery are ok with me. I ordered 1 A2 poster and 2 A3 posters on Monday afternoon at 1:30. By 2.30 I had delivery confirmation, and the next morning in the post they were waiting for me. smile
