    HP indigo type printers are going to be even cheaper than traditional lithography (1-3col printers).

    Rubber Stamps are pretty expensive for large ones.

    Silkscreen will give you a specific look. If it works for you, great, otherwise it's not a great option.

    another cheap option (depending on how you design it) is thermographic foiling... Basically you laserprint your text and design, then run it through a hot roller with an adhesive foil. The foil sticks to the printed toner and depending on the foil, will look like a metallic foil stamp, or will puff and emboss. a white thermofoil on a dark stock can look really classy. white on white is possible as well, and you can run a first pass on an inkjet for other text and details, then laser-print the second pass for your foils.
    cheapy business card/sign-shops tend to have thermo foilers. Edges will look a bit rough, but it might work with your design.
