Letterpress invitations w/pics - can't decide?!

My friend used this company for her invitations & they were AMAZING! You really saw the imprint of the letter & the raised sides. Plus the inks weren't faded like some places. They even sent her 6 different previews before they settled on their design. We decided we love letterpress & are definitely going with this printing method but we can't decide if this is a fair price or not.

100 invitations $427 (one ink color 7x5, folded or card style) & $43 for every 25 more.

Here's their web page: http://www.piccolopress.co.uk/usa-letterpress/Desktop.html

As always thanks for the help! You guys are the best!

It is hard to tell without being able to phyically see the quality of the paper etc - Some letterpress companies use much thinner paper than others - are they hand done or mass produced ?

I used Julie Holcomb - and I paid A LOT more than that - so I guess if you are happy with them than it is a great price
