My friend turned into a photo professional, and her business cards are see-through. It's great.

Now I want to buy something. Sell me a wire keypuller (My paperclips are no longer cutting it!) so I can get my hards on your business card!

I'm very happy with them! Everyone I have showed it to has been very impressed.

I am already starting to scheme up the v.2 for when I run out of these.

That looks like TKL (can't see the keypad in the photo) - can you get one with a numpad?

That's the most awesome business card I have ever seen!  A shame I am not in a position to buy anything just now (in the other thread).

It is laser cut out of steel.  They were quite expensive, and I only ordered a limited amount.

I'm going to go ahead and say orders over $100 qualify, but I might add some more promos in the future.

They look really great in person! Keep your eyes open for promotions including these cards. That's what I did. Got a great MiMiC cable to get it plus a gentleman's set, like a sir and a blank glow cap all for the cost of the cable alone. You can't go wrong with Tech Keys I tell ya.
