A friend and her 8 year old step sister visted me at work once. She was very impressed with her visitor pass and had to keep it. She referred to it as a business card (because its mostly the same shape and has her name on it), which prompted me to give her one of my cards. I'm told she still has both of these items, and it has been several months.
To be more on topic. $9 for a card seems a bit excessive doesn't it? It better be plated in gold or something!Decide what to be and go be it. -

Optionscyberguypr Mod Posts: 6,928 ModThat's what i thought. I don't carry a wallet so it is kind of pointless for me. Although I always carry to interviews a cert transcript hard copy never had the need to produce it.

Optionslittlehoops Member Posts: 46 ■■■□□□□□□□In my last interview i had to show my transcript, certs and wallet card I think they had been cheated before.

OptionsReseven Member Posts: 237 ■■■□□□□□□□Oh cool!

Optionsjmritenour Member Posts: 565Well.... cool that they brought them back, annoying that you can only get ONE title on a card. Didn't the old schools used to list all certs you had, IE MCP, MCSA, MCSE, etc? I guess I'll hold out on this until I get MCITP:EA next year. I don't feel like spending $9 for just MCSA."Start by doing what is necessary, then do what is possible; suddenly, you are doing the impossible." - St. Francis of Assisi

OptionsTLeTourneau Member Posts: 616 ■■■■■■■■□□From the looks of it you list your preferred cert level (i.e. - not MCITP:EA, just MCITP) on the front and your other cert levels (MCTS, MCP) can be listed on the back. I'm personally OK with that.Thanks, Tom

You choose the certification you want to display on the front, and the rest are displayed (if there is room) on the back. The design tool is really neat actually. -

The card is good for points; the points are good for tokens; the tokens are good for one free INTERNET when your Blackberry stops working
For $9 you do get to put your picture on it if you wish. Might come in handy for those two forms of picture ID instances.Who knows what evil lurks in the heart of technology?... The Shadow DO -

Print quality is rather poor. I can't see it lasting very long in the wallet -

Really?? Maybe they have quality control problems. Mine arrived and the print quality is as good or better than my original MCSE wallet card that I have had for years. It is also as good as my CompTIA professional membership card that has been in my wallet since 2008, I stopped changing it out after that. It is not like they come out as often as an ATM card or something. I'm more concerned about the new raised ink format on my new California drivers license.Who knows what evil lurks in the heart of technology?... The Shadow DO -

Mine seems fine. The colors are correct, the text and picture are sharp.Thanks, Tom

Optionslittlehoops Member Posts: 46 ■■■□□□□□□□I think we need all should upload a picture of our cards here to compare. And also go to born to learn http://borntolearn.mslearn.net/forums/cc/f/24/t/21662.aspx and post our feedback there.
my card looks like rubbish too. -
Optionssaspro Member Posts: 114I've posted a reply on their & all the other forums with the wallet cards in them. Hopefully it was just a dodgy run and they can produce better replacements
-
Optionssaspro Member Posts: 114Just had an email from them with a code for a free replacement and a promise of a better quality card.

OptionsJubeiYagaru Member Posts: 47 ■■□□□□□□□□Am I the only one a little annoyed you can not list your specializations on the card ? I mean...if ya have multiple MCTS certs or MCITP certs, the card does zero to tell anyone what you are actually certified in, as opposed to a card from CompTIA that actually says A+, Network+, etc...
