Bad Box of Postcards

I purchased the 8386 Matte White Postcards Print-to-the Edge (Inkjet) and was I in for a horrible surprise. Just when I was 50% from completing my project I made an nightmare discovery. Half of my postcard on one side was perfect the other side would not align not matter what I tried. So very disappointed and panicky. Stores are closed and I have wasted 3 inkjet cartridges. I have always been a strong advocate for Avery products. 10 of the sheets were perfect with double-sided printing and they looked fantastic. But the other 40 sheets are a complete loss/waste. Avery, it would be nice to see you stand by your product and make so kind of adjustment...the postcard stock is not cheap. Once I receive some satisfaction for this bad box of cards, I will not recommend this product to a friend. MsGlo
I bought item 8386 so I could send out post cards as a reunion invite. Well.. we got the 100 cards printed with no problem at all.. The problem was that the size Avery stated them to be 4"x6" , but the postal service said they were bigger. We were not able to send them as post card pricing but had to use Standard Letter size postage. Just a warning to those buying this item.. make sure you re-measure the cards along with taking a tape measure to post office to make sure of the sizing. Not sure if it was Avery or the post office sizing template that is incorrect.
I purchased these to make recipe cards for a 3 ring binder. Even using the correct setting and such with my printer, they did not always print out as desired, so we had to keep reprinting in order for the printing to be on the card, not above or below.
I loved the freedom to create my own design on these postcards. I also loved how easy and quick it was to get my finished product. These cards are a must have for me from now on! I will be using these postcards for many different occasions throughout the year!
The product was good quality firm paper for mailing postcards. I was easy to import a picture & customize. I design I used was "save the Date card. I had so much trouble trying to line it up to print on my HP Inkjet 8600 series printer. I never was able to after hours of trying. The product was listed as compatible for my printer but it wasn't.
