The Edinburgh Copyshop has over 20 years of experience under their belt, showing their expertise in the printing industry. These copy connoisseurs excel at tight deadlines, ensuring you’ll never miss a beat. 

Here’s the cherry on top: they even deliver prints right to your doorstep! This spares you from the hassle of battling through the unpredictable Scottish weather while clutching your precious documents.

For students on a shoestring budget, it generously offers a 10% student discount, because let’s face it, being a broke scholar is tough enough.

They also have printing deals that won’t break the bank. For instance, their roll-up banner deal is a steal at £120, complete with two roll-up displays and travel cases. 

Sadly, it has a minimum transaction fee of £1.00 to cover those production costs for pint-sized orders. 

Also, customers have reported that the Edinburgh Copyshop can sometimes keep you waiting for what feels like an eternity. For instance, someone apparently waited thirty-five minutes for a mere five pages.

First off, we love that Crescent Print is a LGBTQ+ friendly establishment. Also, their over 60 years of combined experience means they know the ins and outs of the print process.

It offers same-day delivery service, which is great for those in a time crunch. They even accommodate last-minute printing emergencies, whether it’s a last-minute project for school or a sudden marketing campaign.

They have the capacity to handle print runs exceeding 100,000 copies, making them the go-to choice for large-scale projects.

Speaking of large-scale projects, they’re no stranger to working for events and exhibitions. For instance, they regularly provide printing services for the Edinburgh College of Art, the University of Edinburgh, and even the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. 

Their black and white printing service is a steal, offering 250 pages in A4 size for just £12.50, and the same size and quantity for colour will only set you back £62.50. It seems that here, your prints are a masterpiece for your eyes and your wallet.

Do note that Crescent Print isn’t just limited to printing on paper. They offer bespoke outdoor sign and display services, catering to all your vinyl lettering, shop sign, and PVC banner needs, even printing custom cut stickers!

Sadly, they’re closed on weekends unlike other print shops.

Additionally, there have been reports of the occasional grumpy staff member. But hey, who doesn’t have their off days? 

Print Pixels offers versatile printing options, from posters to dissertations, digital printing to banners, and even leaflet printing. They also understand the need for urgency and provide same day or next day printing and delivery service. 

But here’s where Print Pixels truly shines: their in-house design and print team. These creative geniuses are armed with handy templates or can conjure up something completely bespoke just for you. 

They know that every print deserves that extra pizzazz, which is why they offer a deluxe range of finishes, including matte, gloss, lamination, and embossing.

Print Pixels goes above and beyond the usual printing offerings with their unique features. For instance, those in need of promotional products can choose from T-shirt printing and embroidery, raffle ticket printing, canvas printing, and even mug printing.

We also admire how customers have raved about their incredibly competitive prices, proving that quality printing doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg. You can have your prints and keep your limbs intact.

While other shops have their price guides conveniently available online, you’ll have to give them a call for a quote. 

Also, there have been reports of a lack of responsiveness from Print Pixels, citing their non-response to queries via phone and email.

For over 30 years, Copymade has been the go-to print shop for quality digital and litho printing services in Edinburgh.

From individuals and students to large companies and organisations, Copymade caters to a diverse clientele. They print business cards and stationery, flyers and leaflets, or professional booklets, brochures, folders, and even T-shirts.

With their 24-hour service, you can rest easy knowing that your printing needs will be met, no matter the hour. It’s like having your own personal printing genie granting your wishes around the clock.

They’re known for their lightning-fast turnaround times that leave customers impressed. One satisfied customer even shared their experience of having a custom drawing printed and framed in less than 10 minutes.

While Copymade offers exceptional quality, it comes at a slightly higher price tag. For instance, flyers at £115 for 250 copies and a roll-up banner priced at £100 for just one might make you do a double-take.

There have also been reports of incomplete orders, leaving some customers feeling frustrated, especially those who already paid in advance. They should check each order before sending them out to avoid these types of complaints.

With over 30 years of experience in the printing realm, PrintSponge knows a thing or two about delivering print solutions.

Customers love how their years of experience allow them to provide sound printing advice. For instance, they know the appropriate thickness of stock for your business cards or how inks will react on different types of paper. 

When it comes to the food and drink industry, it seems PrintSponge is a favourite. They have worked with Giancarlo’s, Tempo Perso, Copper Blossom, and La Favorita, crafting print materials from food menus to wine lists, cocktail menus to children’s placemats. 

They also offer convenient in-store printing, copying, and scanning services, providing A4 and A3 solutions while you wait. We like that they also offer laminating services, adding an extra layer of protection to your prints.

What’s unique about them is that they offer a print sample service, allowing you to see your art on different paper stocks before committing to a full print run. It’s like test-driving your prints before hitting the accelerator.

Sadly, they take a breather on weekends, closing their doors temporarily. 

As for the reports of patronising and snooty staff, well, let’s just hope they’re practising their “friendly customer service” faces in the mirror.
