Is It Possible For Someone With Little Money To Get Anything Done?

 I'm thinking don't get your hopes up. I made a small collage to get printed as sticker labels for my small card holding boxes for the Match Me card game, the labels would be 3"x4".  I chose GotPrint to do the job, I had used them in the past with good results. The least you could order was 100. I uploaded my design, got a message it was approved, and waited.  The stickers arrived yesterday and at first glance they looked good.

But as I looked further I noticed the color missing in a LOT of the images. The stickers on the left, perfect, the stickers on the right no so much.  The cats jacket turning partially or totally from green to yellow, the blue sky disappearing, the blue and white birds head turning white in some, The green foliage turning yellow. About 30 of the stickers were perfect all the rest had color issues. When I contacted GotPrint about this I was told the fault was mine because the resolution was too low and this would cause pixelation and graininess.  I do not see pixelation or graininess in this printing, I see color loss. How could 30 be perfect and the rest not be? I was told I could redo what I had sent them (with higher resolution) and they would redo it or I could have $45 in store credit. They refused to admit it was a printing error, clogged heads? low ink?  70 stickers into the trash. Ugh.

Just got word my stickers (from a different printing company) for the back of each card are arriving today. Fingers crossed🙄
