What a great experience to buy from DCCL
What a great experience it was ordering large photo prints was from DS Colour Labs. It was really easy to select the photo paper and finish as well as adjusting the picture. The pictures were delivered quickly and were just as I wanted.

Hi Oren, Thank you for taking the tome to leave a review. It’s great to hear your order arrived quickly, and we look forward to helping with your next one!
Great customer service
I had a large black and white photograph printed and unfortunately it arrived damaged, I emailed DS Colour Labs, and they were excellent, replaced it straight away, no hassle, no messing around. Now that is what you call great service. I’m doing an open uni course, so quality and colour are very important, I would score them 100% on both.

I was very impressed with the service from DS Colour Labs. The turnaround was remarkably fast, and the print arrived sooner than expected. Colour accuracy was excellent — the finished print matched the file very closely, with natural tones and good depth. They also offer a very strong range of papers, which made it easy to choose a finish that suited the image. The print was carefully packaged and arrived in perfect condition. A very professional service from start to finish.

1 star is 1 too many. Very disappointed. Image was too dark and lacked colour. I did brighten my image before sending, too co.pensate for my screens brightness.

Needed a quick framed print for a funeral presentation
I needed a framed large print urgently. I found the site easy to use and reasonable priced. The finished print arrived well protected and almost next day delivery. Good quality and very pleased with the experience. Recommend thoroughly.

Not your fault
Not your fault, I forgot to change the profile in PS so while the images are quite dark they turned out too dark, so thats on me but not able to use them so hard to rate.
