Blue streaks on most cards - useless!
on December 14, 2009
Posted by: Paula K.
I bought 4 packs of 500 and had to throw away at least 15% of these because the cards contained blue ink or streaks on one side. The cards are so thin it ran thru to the other side so both sides were useless.
I was going to use these for post cards for a non-profit mailing as I already had my printer set up to take this size and didn't want to buy the post card templates and have to update my card. Unfortunately when I got home and opened them up I discovered that index cards aren't made out of the heavier card stock like they used to be. Way too flimsy to expect them to go through the Post Office machines so I had to do what I usually do and cut them out of card stock - 3 to a sheet - time intensive but best I could manage at that point. Anyone need 500 index cards w/out lines?
We use these cards to send notices thru the mail they work well in our Brother printer the print is good and we have no problem sending them thru the mail.
This product is great for anyone needing to take quick notes or jotting down a list. The one practical advantage is that you can write on both sides without having bleed-thru. On the cons side it is easy to smudge if you write in pencil. Still and all they make great conversation pieces for folks with nothing better to do with their time.
