QinPrinting Rated Excellent for Doujinshi Printing
Nelson and the team at QinPrinting produced a fabulous hardcover autobiography for us, with both goil foil and UV varnish effects on the cover. The quality was superb and the price impossible to beat here in the UK. If you have a long lead time for production (the only downside is sea freight from China) I cannot recommend QinPrinting more highly. We would absolutely use them again.
Every step of the way, Qin was there for me. My questions were answered quickly and easy to understand. I was blown away by their quality and the ease of their services.
Very responsive, nice to work with and knowledgeable. Great service and a wonderful product.
I am blown away with the quality and amazing customer service!! I definitely recommend. A previous company I worked with didn’t want to fix their errors and wouldn’t allow me to print. I was stressed searching for a company all night and I came accross qin. I read that the payment process was skeptical because of wiring but I felt at ease because of another review so I hope this also puts someone else at ease that it is very safe and 100% legit. The quality was so much better than my previous company and each book was properly plastic wrapped which I love that they are protected from any rain that may occur during shipping.
I had no idea what I was doing as this was the first time I have ordered books. Nelson helped me figure out every step of the process and checked to make sure that I was getting exactly what I wanted. I also had him give me multiple quotes for different options and he happily babied me through the whole thing.
Very responsive and professional. High quality work. A delight to work with. I’ll go back again.
Qin Printing did a beautiful job with my 116-Page book! The colors are bright and vibrant, and the print quality is sharp and crisp. I will definitely be printing with Qin again in the future!
Wow wow wow! Where do I begin? I've been working with QinPrinting for nearly 10 months since I first reached out to them inquiring about their services, as I had a game I wanted to create. Since day one, Daniel was incredibly patient and transparent, and he answered my *millions* of questions along the way. He and his team worked with me to make adjustments as needed, which I very much appreciated since I wasn't able to be there in person to ask questions and point out specifics—and I was very particular about my vision. I'm honestly shocked that we were able to pull this off simply by email communication and pdf files!
The sample kit they have available is a must-order for your project. It has every type of paper and finish with a bunch of sample products they've worked on, which helped me make an informed decision about how I wanted my game to look and feel.
The final product(s) arrived within their estimated window and in excellent condition. It still feels surreal to hold it in my hands, and it feels like a legitimate game—because it is!! All thanks to this incredibly talented and professional team.
I feel relieved to have a trusted manufacturer to continue printing my products as sales come in. They're truly worth every penny. Thank you, QinPrinting!!!

Great support every step of the way. Communication never stopped and I received a video of the book before they arrived, Shipping was very quick in my opinion and the books were top quality.
I had a deck of conversation cards printed with Qin Printing and I couldn't be happier with the results.
I went with Qin Printing as I had specific printing requests that could not be met by many Australian printing service providers, especially not at a competitive price point.
The quality and finishing of the conversation cards is outstanding and the entire process was seamless from start to end. The team at Qin Printing were prompt to reply to my questions and queries and also very helpful with troubleshooting.
I got regular updates on the status of the printing job and shipping period, including pictures and videos of the product.
Thank you everyone at Qin Printing!

Everyone was very responsive and helpful in making sure I got the end result I wanted.
The board books I had printed turned out great. Vibrant colors, quality bindings and individually shrink wrapped. All very professional.
Pricing, delivery, communication and quality were all exactly as advertised. No surprises.

Great communication and responsiveness. The print quality of the board books was exceptional!
Have worked with Qin twice now, and hope to work with them again soon. Excellent quality, excellent customer service, excellent communication — a really great find after dealing with a lot of expensive middlemen for our printing needs in the past. 5+ stars!
I got a very large neoprene mat printed out for a custom board game. QinPrinting was the only company I could find willing to do curved edges. Their communication was very prompt, friendly and clear. The shipping was fast and mostly importantly, the quality was fantastic. I would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone in need.
Great communication, turnaround/ shipping was faster than expected, and the books are perfect in every way. I would absolutely recommend QinPrinting and will be working with them again.
