Customer Testimonials
At Thomson-Shore Customers are very important to us!
We first began using Thomson-Shore because their bid was the lowest among several we received, and we have continued to use them because their quality is the highest. We are very satisfied with all aspects of our jobs and Thomson-Shore … outstanding service, excellent quality control, good advice when we have questions. We could not ask for more from a printer.
Carolyn Lemon, Ignatius Press
Ican't believe you made it happen to get us 20 books for the release party. I appreciate it greatly. Thank you, thank you.

Ihave been using Thomson-Shore for 20 years and they have always given me top notch printing and binding. Lately, as well, they have been printing and binding our journals. True to form, Thomson-Shore has accomplished this with their expected high quality and they are certainly, in my opinion, one of the top printer binders that I have ever used.

I have been working with Thomson-Shore for a decade and I'll continue working with them. They know their business and clients. My journal, Letras Femeninas, and my books are printed with love.

In the decade I have worked with T/S, I have been immensely pleased by the quality of customer service we have received. Though our enterprise - a literary journal published twice a year, with a low print count - is very modest, we have always felt that our business was important to T/S. Whether it was correcting a problem with a file on our end, arranging for drop shipments, or trying out something new with the journal, the staff at T/S has been helpful and patient (with our own lack of expertise). I recommend them highly!

Thomson-Shore has served as a printer for our firm since ca. 1990, including printing the academic journals that Eisenbrauns publishes (or manages on behalf of clients). TS has frequently been our most cost-effective partner in our journal publishing program, but more importantly, can be counted on to produce our print-form periodicals with the high quality that we and our customers and subscribers expect. One of our clients includes a color section in its annual, and because they've learned that we use Thomson-Shore for the printing and binding, they insist that we continue with Thomson-Shore—a testimony to the quality and care of the production. We consider Thomson-Shore a primary vendor for our journal-printing needs.

Years ago I decided to drop our previous printer and turned over the printing and shipping of our quarterly journal to Thomson-Shore. I am so glad I did! Whereas in the past there had been long lapses in communications and difficulties in finding out production schedules, we now are provided with instant, professional service. Maria Smith has served as our customer service representative for the past four years, and production of our journal has never run smoother. If there is a problem with the way we uploaded the files, we are notified immediately so that we can correct it before it goes to print. If I want customized postage numbers, I get them within a day. If I have any questions, Maria always responds in a prompt, cordial, and professional manner. She is the empress of tact and efficiency. I will never go back to our previous printer. In fact, to invoke that ancient cigarette commercial tagline, "I'd rather fight than switch!"

As the editor of the journal Chinese Literature: Essays, Articles, Reviews (CLEAR) for nearly thirty years, I am pleased to praise the excellent results we have had working with Thomson-Shore. The journal has always been printed in a timely fashion. The attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly personnel at Thomson-Shore have assured that the journal has continued to improve its appearance over the years and allowed us to expand our readership so that the CLEAR is now on a sound financial footing. In short, the Thomson-Shore team delivers everything we want and expect from a publisher.
