Ever since Costco stopped making photo books nearly a year ago, I have been unable to find a good company (with user-friendly software) that than give a fair price for a dozen or more books at a time. Chasing massive but fleeting discounts from grossly over-priced starting points is driving me nuts.
I might try CVS next since I can avoid shipping cost by picking up at my local store.
Any advice would be helpful. Thanks
Have you looked at Shutterfly and Full Color, Inc.?
when i saw your topic , i was going to suggest cvs,get a cvs card and they will send you good deals. i've been using them for years with great results,you can edit after you upload too,to get most desirable results.

https://www.photobookamerica.com/ - not sure what you consider a "fair price" to be but you can check theirs. I have calendars made by them, and their response times are quite good, while I find the software quite easy to use.
Shutterfly bought out Costco photo accounts. Up until this coming January, you can go to Shutterfly and have your old Costco account transferred.
Edit - go to Costco Photo online. Easy transfer.
Try Printerpix. Get a deal on Groupon then purchase multiple photo books at decent price with decent quality

Got my Xmas cards printed at Walmart. Don't know if they do books.
PS. I uploaded image to Walmarts web site and they delivered thru the mail.
The price at Shutterfly was $133 or thereabouts for 60 cards. At Walmart the same order aroun d $36.

Half Price Books, Records and Tapes.
For shipping, the US Post Office Offers a shipping called PAL, it is mucg less expensive and it is slow, but the savings can make it worth while.

You might try BLURB. They do excellent photo books and I have just ordered two copies of one book. They are usually not cheap but are now having a 50 percent off annual holiday sale. For example, I just ordered two hard cover books, 8 inches high by 10 inches wide, 240 pages each, with a PDF copy for a total of $172.90. You can also add titles or text to each photo at no extra cost but I did not.
