Hi Clubsnappers

I am thinking of collating my photos and printing it into a coffee table book (just one or two copies for personal consumption).
Is there a printer or a service out there that does this? Preferably the service would include layout, and the print should be of good quality.

Does anyone know where I can find a printer/service like this?

Thank you.
Drillbit.

You can try KT Colour.

I just ordered one via www.photobooksingapore.com and is waiting for it to arrive. The book has already completed printing and shipped. Waiting for it to arrive. If you would like to take a look at it when it arrives can PM me. Mine was a 6" x 6" deal which I got from Groupon for free. If the printing is good I may do one more at a later date. Cheers!

Hi PinkDevil
Thanx for the offer.
Let me check out their website first.

Photo album and Photo Books are two totally different products, their quality and price difference is also huge.

you need to study carefully before you place an order.
so when you know you paying for the price of a Hyundai, please don't expect it will be driven like a Maserati.

Thanx Catchlights.
I didn't expect it to be cheap if I want quality stuff. I want a "family coffee table book" that will last for many years' of abuse, and still be in good condition. So in my mind it should be hardcover, with high quality paper and print.
So many suggestions here, I guess the best would be to pay the shops a visit.

Cheers

I ordered that as well, since free (excluding delivery fees) hence give it try. But saw some of it that my friend had ordered larger size previously fr groupon, the one given in the deal the paper very thin type. Ok if just for personnel keep.
Now has the groupon deal again but at $3.99 for mini book.

Yes, notice that too. But it has seem smaller and lesser pages (16 pages, 5.7" x 4.2") compare to Photobook of 40pages 6"x6".

Received the mini book from Photobooks yesterday. Print look ok for a free small book, better than I expected. But there is a scratch mark across at the back cover. Email them waiting for reply.
Feel that if it for paid assignment, better to look for one locally, anything wrong still easier to go back to them. But for own keep, as long it presentable with reasonable price, then I am ok with it.

true that :bsmilie:
 

Personally use Photobook Singapore because 1) they've been consistent and reliable for me 2) order/upload process relatively smooth and fuss-free 3) their basic imagewrap books are a quality product which I like. Basic*, durable and affordable.

*Basic as opposed to high-end/luxurious, in the sense that I'm not expecting a fine art product.
