Buying paper

Wordgames · Post by **Wordgames** » July 13th, 2006, 5:38 pm

Well Im nearly out of stock of the Koma 35cm paper I imported about 4 years ago and since Ive been using the larger paper recently I could use some more.

Does anyone know of a retailer in the UK that sells good origami paper of this size or larger(upto 50cm) that can take orders via the internet?

(If anyone knows of a shop near to Newcastle that sells suitable supplies Id love to hear of it).

It seems that the largest papers to be found in the UK are the 30cm ones at BOS, once I run out of 12" I will order some from there, seems the days of 15" are pretty much over now so I better save the last 2 sheets for a special project.

The larger stuff at Rozes is very expensive indeed... and its not even square!

(growls 64-49 craft paper, and they even threaten to fold it into an A4 envelope!)

(Anyone know what happened to Fascinating Folds?)

A shame, thats where I use to get most of my paper from.

It seems that Kims Crane still sells 35cm sheets, $10 a pop but with a minimum order of $50, a minimum P&P of 50% plus $7.50 and the harshest cavet emptor international sales policy around (though I understand why)... I think I may give it a month on payday then order 5 packs which should tide me over for quite a while.
