You get what you pay for

I heard it's better to make a mistake early on and fix it rather than making that same mistake later down the road where it can cause more damage. I knew I had a couple engagements coming up where I would need business cards so I quickly jumped on a good deal I saw online. I was advised by a friend to not order from this online site and go to a local place. I politely refused and ordered from the online site anyways because it was much cheaper. The funny thing is that an art show came up out of nowhere so I ended up going to a local place anyways to have cards in time. I paid more but I must admit I was happy with the business cards. A few days later I received my box of business cards I ordered online and couldn't believe what I saw when I opened them. My local ones I ordered were of way better quality and had the same design. It was crazy how different they looked. I was frustrated that ordered a ton of the crappy ones and have already gave out all the good ones. I don't even feel comfortable passing these new ones out and since first impressions are everything I wont. They weren't super expensive so it's not a huge deal but as I keep spending money on advertisement and shirts, every dollar counts. So from now on I can't let price take away from the quality of this brand.
