I've used Vistaprint in the past for posters, yes they will spam the nuts out of you but the posters were very good.

from years of being on the publicity commitees of am dram society, i can say that its always best if you can create the poster image yourself, and then take it to a local printer, and have them print it for you.

the set up is expensive, and the art work. do that job yourself.

unfortunatly, i can no longer do this myself. Where i work, had a full lito printshop atatched, alas its now outsourced.

you're like Yoda.you dont say much, but what you do say is worth listening to....

As Rob says, we usually use 1click but I've had a quick scout around and as far as I can tell in ten mins or so JamJar print may be your best bet coming in at around 70p a poster -

- although I think they charge for postage.

I've used both of the above companies numerous times in the past and they are very reliable.

Best
