Single-order dust cover replacement

Hello,

I am interested in ordering a dust cover to replace the one that came with my book.  I made a mistake in the design (my pages are misaligned because I measured incorrectly) and although the book itself is fine, the dust cover does not look good.  I don’t want to pay the full cost for an entirely new book just to get a replacement dust cover!  I have a few questions:

1. Does Blurb offer this service?  Reading through the forum posts I see many unsatisfied Blurb customers who seem to indicate that Blurb does not <del>-</del> but not sure if this service has recently been added?

2. If Blurb does not offer this service, does anyone know of any sites that specialize in inexpensive single-order prints?  So far all of my searches have led me to professional printers that have order minimums (or else will charge $250+ for a single print!).

3. If there are no such printers, can anyone at Blurb (or anyone in the printing industry) give me specs for a good paper stock to print on?  As a last resort I am willing to go to Kinko’s or another retail print shop and let them do it, but I want to get the right kind of paper to make it look good.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Craig

Did you get an answer to this question? I really need a dust cover for the book I am doing.

That’s not an option that Blurb provide. Hopefully someone will respond to questions 2 and 3 for you
