Yes
ive got a bit of a problem at the moment in that i need a few pictures printing out by wednesday (need them for thursday morning) my printer has just run out of ink and suzies printer is dreadful for photos.

if i put an order in with photobox tonight do you think i would recieve it on wednesday?
 
cheers! im not sure on how consistent their deliveries will be (what with i presume a high volume of stuff over the bank holiday. i also dont have a few of the pictures which i will have to take tomorrow (its for a job interview). so it is going to be a big no no anyway i feel, if all else fails ill have to go to a local printing place with a cd of pictures and get them sorted there!

ive managed to locate 3 of the cartridges i need for my printer in the local argos store, and hopefully rymans/stationarybox/tescos etc will have the other one in stock if im lucky so ill be ok!

maybe i should have chjecked the status of my ink levels in advance!
 
I know DSCL say allow 3 days for delivery, but I placed an order 4pm on a friday and the prints were delivered by postie on the saturday morning.
 
I've always been surprised at just how fast photobox are. But bear in mind you're relying on the post office as well for delivery, and with the best will in the world I can't say that they're as good as they used to be. So prints for Thursday morning? Well... it's a "maybe" at best.
 
Photobox might well deliver in time, but tbh I wouldn't risk it quality wise. I've used them many times now, and have to say that I have had a 80% reject rate (I phone to complain and they redo them because of one error or another). I use them every now and again though to see if they have improved, as you can't beat their price and delivery times really. In the beginning when I used them they were great, so I know they can get it right, it's just a matter of when. I certainly won't use them for something I needed quickly and accurate though. :shrug:
 
I've often been surprised by Photobox's speed as well.
But I also agree with what's been said about accuracy. Depends what the shots are for and how important it is.
