Custom Wall Calendars: Part Two

Both the Ofoto and cafepress calendars arrived today via FedEx and UPS, respectively. That's two days after placing the order -- pretty impressive! The Ofoto calendar was wrapped in a plastic envelope containing a silica gel dessicant inside a cardboard box mailer; the cafepress calendar was shrink-wrapped to a corregated cardboard sheet inside a sturdy brown mailer.

First impressions -- the Ofoto calendar with its spiral binding and nice packaging seems much more professional and impressive. The cafepress calendar is larger with large, borderless photos, but its inexact folding and stapling job made it seem much less polished and professional. Also, cafepress put the cover image on upside down.

Both websites did a good job providing order status information, email updates, and links to shipper tracking information.
