Having problems with message search?
Tom, in my opinion, Shutterfly prices are way too high for what you get. Zenfolio is a much better deal.
To sell at a profit on Zenfolio, you have to have a PRO account at $100/year. Here's the comparison:
Zenfolio
They take 12% AFTER deducting the base price and shipping. 8x10 from MPIX is 1.99 Unlimited uploads!
If I sell an 8x10 for 15.00, I get $11.45 (15.00 - 1.99 - 1.56)
Shutterfly
15% of the NET. Then they deduct base price. 8x10 from Shutterfly is 3.19? 5 GB limit
If I sell an 8x10 for $15,00, I get $9.56 ($15x 0.15 - 3.19 - 2.25)
I chose Zenfolio for my sales mainly because I can have MPIX do the printing.
With Zenfolio, I get to keep 16.4% more (the difference between 9.56 and 11.45)
Unless you have some other overriding factor, I think the choice is pretty clear.

I am thinking about joining "Shutterfly Pro", does anyone have an opinion about them? Is anyone using them, or have used them before?
