Hi All,
Anyone recommend anywhere online or shop to purchase good quality photo paper at an affordable price?

A3 Photo Paper Gloss & Matt
A4 Photo Paper Gloss & Matt

Any makes / brands that are good?

Kind Regards

I've been using stuff from Costco for a while now. The quality is excellent from what I can see. There isn't much choice (or wasn't last time I bought) but the A4 gloss is just as good as the premium brands I've used before.

Can't recommend one brand in particular - but I can tell you a couple to avoid. Any of the cheap pound shop paper and the asda value - its like toilet paper, the ink will run and the pictures last all of 24 hours before falling apart in your hands!

Hmmmm, these one liners you are coming out with appear to be adding very little to the conversations - wouldn't be trying to cheat the domain contest now would we?
