very, very disappointed with Inkubook service

June 9th, 2009 by Heidi

Table of contents for Inkubook book experience

  1. Creating a book at Inkubook
  2. Inkubook photo book is printed and on its way…
  3. My Inkubook order has arrived and its really cute!
  4. very, very disappointed with Inkubook service

I like to save up my printing services and print multiple books to save on shipping and handling.   DON”T try this with Inkubook!

It turns out that if you order different books that you are forced to pay shipping and handling on each different book order.  I ordered and then talked to customer service. They said that is the way it is and it is something that they would like to change in the future but can’t be done now.

Their help statement:

7. If I’ve made more than one book can I order copies of each of them at the same time?

If you’ve made more than one book with Inkubook, you’ll need to order each book separately. Because each book is printed at the time it is ordered instead of being plucked off a shelf of pre-printed books, each book must be prepared and tracked separately. It’s like getting a made-to-order outfit instead of buying something off the rack.

They told me if I would have talked to them beforehand, they would have given me a coupon code for shipping and handling..    No where does it state in that help, the offer to talk to them first for shipping and handling discounts.

Anyway, extremely disappointed in Inkubook and customer service.  They seemed unable to do much or offer to help.

ScanCafe, a service to turn your negatives, slides or photos into digital photos.

May 22nd, 2009 by Heidi

Do you have old photos, slides or negatives that you want to turn into digital prints. Here is a service worth checking out:

 Let us scan your old photos, before they fade away

Scan Cafe Pricing is $0.24 for a negative, $0.29 for a Slide and $0.27 for a print.

Obviously its hard to determine if you want a particular picture scanned when it is a negative or slide so Scan Cafe offers:  You only have to pay for the scans you keep, after you’ve had a chance to review them online.   You can delete up to 50% of them, no questions asked. Once you have chosen which images you wish to have, your images will be burned to CD/DVD and sent to you.

Looking for your help!

May 15th, 2009 by Heidi

I am looking for your help to keep the photo book and printing resources up-to-date!

The information is already there but I need someone to periodically check the companies website to see if any current products information has changed or if new products are available.   I estimate that the time it takes per company is about 20 minutes and it only needs to be done about every 2 months.   Editing the pages is simple once you have access,  you simply click on edit and edit any of the things that might have changed.   No technical expertise required.

So I am hoping to get a volunteer for each company below to update the companies page and photo book pages for that company.  Time required is about 20 minutes every 2 months.  I will send out a reminder email to volunteers to remind them to check the updates every 2 months. 

If you are interested in helping with 1 or 2 companies, register at DigiScrapInfo for a username then please email heidi @ digiscrapinfo.com with 2 pieces of information:  the company you would like to do and the username.  I will send you instructions and give you access.

Here is the list of companies that I am looking for volunteers for: 

  • Inkubook
  • Kodak
  • Lakeside Camera and Imaging
  • Lulu
  • mpix
  • MyPicTales
  • Photoalbum.com
  • photobook memories
  • Photoworks
  • Picabook
  • Pure print designs
  • Scrapbook Please
  • Scrapbooks to Share
  • Shared Ink
  • Shutterfly
  • SmileBooks
  • Smugmug
  • Snapfish
  • Viovio
  • whcc
  • Winkflash
