places where you can check up on price lists for your service.

Request for Answer Clarification by answers2002-ga on 10 Aug 2002 15:58 PDT

Neither of the sites listed allow much room for diversity in pricing. 
I am lloking for a site that indicates a per item breakdown based on
quantity, Need clarification as to how pages are counted.  Half folded
8 1/2 x11 sheet
printed on both sides.  Is that 4 pages or two?  Need answer otherwise
pricing will be incorrect.  Also need seperate price for card stock
per sheet.eg 11x17

Need a list beginning at 20lb. paper

Dear answers2002:

Can you clarify your request for me? The first two links offer price
lists for any arbitrary quantity orders, with options for additional
post processing and different material, including card stock.
Commercial printing prices vary not only with the type of paper and
printing options, but also with the type of job. (e.g.  a newsletter
job will have different cost than a brochure). This is the reason I
have provided the link to their javascript calculators, such as the
one at printingforless.com. If you could tell me what you are looking
for in addition to the information available in the original answer, I
could help you further. =)

A half folded sheet printed on both sides is "four pages", but for
pricing purposes, the four pages altogether is counted as one sheet.
