Default 50% off digital prints for 3 days at www.fotohub.com

Saw the above from an advert by Fotohub.

If you order via www.fotohub.com from 1-3 June 05 and key in the code: FHSMS05 you'll get 50% discount for 2R, 4R, 5R, 6R, 8R and FotoJumbo prints.

I haven't tried this service before though.

I used to print from fotohub OUB Centre. Quality so so as compare to other Fuji Frontier machine also their standard is not consistent ( very much depends on the printer and the one who calibrate their machine) After that switched printer.


May check out their outlet at Beach Road though.

So attractive? That means $0.25 for 4R (with white border). Such a good deal makes me a bit suspicious! Will they use low quality paper???

Anyone knows their delivery charges?

The website does not indicate them.

I have spoken to them, the promotion is for real, only from June 1 - 3.

Don't know about delivery charges. Self-collect safer IMO!

jumbo size is those sizes out of the normal compact digicam, not the usual 1.5 4R but slightly bigger, 1.33 i think.

Also, $0.25 is not really tat cheap compare to other Fuji kiosk. They charge really ex at $0.50 normally, so they still make big profit with 50% discount. Konica kiosks charge only $0.20 per print.


But I am still happy with $0.30 plus discount at the Fuji Kiosk.

Yeah Konica is really cheap at 20cents. But Konica does not have a good reputation for quality prints as compared to Fuji/Kodak right? I tend to bypass Konica whenever I'm looking to print any kind of photos...

You are not exactly right in this. So far as I know, there is at least one located at 3rd fl in PP which deliver superb print and it is a Konica kiosk.

Anyway, I do agree with your last sentence.

Thumbs down charge for borders

they charge extra for borders saying they "MAKE EXTRA EFFORT" when making print with borders...........those of us who knows better, all is needed is select 4R with borders option and pressto,,,,,you get borders
