I'm throwing this out to anyone any where who has purchased greeting cards from Zazzle and Cafe Press. Which company do you think makes a higher quality product?

Purpose:
I have a special request from some one who is not a current client.
They are interested in purchasing cards and want an option that they can have available online if they decide to reorder.

We agreed on a price for the first batch which will include an upcharge for editing the design to their specs.
They agreed to pay the shipping and handling. No issues there.

I uploaded the new design it to both Cafe Press and Zazzle and here's how it plays out:
- Cafe Press only allows a print to be added to the front and inside right of the card
  Zazzle allows a full inside spread.

- Cafe Press charges a base price of $14.99 for a pack of 10 cards
   Zazzle's 10 card pack is $22.00 with my discount

- Cafe Press charges $5.00 for shipping
   Zazzle charges $5.99

Considerations:
At this point it is a matter of quality. The customer is happy with either option and has told me to decide which was better.

I haven't ordered greeting cards for myself from either place for quite some time and I know both companies have gone through dramatic changes in production, quality or products, etc.

So who do you think does it better?
If you have a reason it's even better.

Thanks in advance kiddies.
More soon...
