Has anyone used this company? I started getting emails from them.
I wonder how many "No's" you will receive?

I have. They have good prices and good service. They run specials all of the time.
Or how few "Yes's" I goggled them just now and reviews range. Since they are apparently cheaper, you might give it a shot.

I got 4 16x20 pictures from them and all were flawless. The only problem I have had is with the shipping. The packaging came crimped. I sent shots of the crimped packaging to them and they reprinted all pictures. But the quality of the prints has always been outstanding.
Several of the prints in my current exhibition were done by Nations. I have no complaints.

I've used them for several projects at work.
One was for their metal prints.
Had about 24- 16 x 20's made for a display.
Excellent quality and service!
Go for it!
Before I saw any replies, I went to the website, did a quick survey of what I saw and some of the competitors pricing etc. The website was easy to navigate, so I went ahead and ordered 10 8x12 prints on a backing board. Total cost 64.75... Free shipping. SO, we shall see....

Wow! $6.72 for an 8x12???????????? It is definitely worth a try.
OK..... I got my prints today. Overall I am very pleased. I misprinted before, it was 10 8x10's for less than $65.00 INCLUDING shipping.
Prints arrived packed very securely. They are mounted on 2mm backing and they are packed "back to back" and then slid into clear envelopes for protection. Each "set" is then packed and taped between sheets of cardboard. Nations' also included a non-mounted 8x10 of each print. These were stacked all together like normal prints and then slid into a single plastic sleeve for protection. That sleeve was then sandwiched between two cardboard sheets and stacked over the other product.
The prints themselves are crisp and clear. Colors are vivid and bright and contrast is as I expected. I ordered them with the "metallic" finish, and I definitely see that finish. I am not sure I would order that finish again for wildlife images. Probably luster or gloss would have been a better choice.
Also, and no fault of Nations Photo... When I cropped and sent the images, I cropped them and they looked good on my monitor. Upon receipt, they seem cropped too close. I went back and looked at what I sent them, and they are exactly as I sent the images. I believe that if I were to re-submit these images, I would not have them cropped as tightly as they were. I believe the screen vs. the print is a bit deceptive. Just a thought.
Will I use Nations Photo again. ABSOLUTELY
This looked good on my screen, but in print is cropped WAY too close
Thanx to all who replied!
