I suppose all of that is true, and you get what you pay for. For me if I want a print doing properly I'll take them into a place that has a proper quality control system, not into some high street place where the kid behind the counter can barely manage to work the till.
The worst set of prints I ever saw was from a roll of photos someone had taken on their honeymoon. Now they camera they were using was a point-n-shoot all in one snapshot camera. Nothing on any of the photos was in focus, landscape, view from balcony, sitting on the beach, not a damn thing. He was saying "I guess I messed them up", I reckon you'd really have to work at it to screw 36 photos up with one of those cameras. Reprints were fine.
