Hi

I also bought this paper and very pleased with it and quick delivery.

However, went into Poundland. They are selling packs of 40 sheets 6"x4", high gloss 220gsm heavyweight paper for inkjet printers.

Havent tried it yet but it looks quite good.

I'm not trying to knock anyone or the product, but I did pick up on the fact that "mumstheword" commented that the top sheet was glossy and the remaineder were matt.

If I bought something that I could see and then discovered that those which couldn't be seen were of different quality etc. I would be of the opinion that I had been mislead whether the item cost £1 or £100.

It is advertised as matt and that is what you order and therefore matt is what you get

I hadnt seen it before purchase, and ordered matt paper, so was very surprised to see the glossy sheet on the top. and disappointed actually, coz i always used to order matt photos. but it was obviously a mistake sheet in the pack

hi!!
The glossy page on the top is a safety/protecting sheet.
I made a slight mistake and put it in the printer :-[ ;D before looking at the rest. It kept getting stuck and I realised it was not the paper!!

OK, I'm quite prepared not to be so "picky" about comments. The thing is, everyone seems satisfied with their purchase and it appears to be quite a bargain.

Have a good day.

I want to buy some "card" to make some Christmas Cards with my daughter.

Those of you who have bought the product, is the paper strong enough to stand up as a greeting card or wouldnt you recommend it?

Thanks

Only just found this thead, so back tracking a bit but wanted to reply to jumpingjackd (think that's the right spelling) comment about Poundland photo paper.

Obviously it depends a bit from printer to printer, but on our Epson, it's producing fantastic prints! Much better than on the Kodak paper we have

Bought some one night, went back the next for another 3 packets. Unfortunately they appear to have sold out now as a friend wanted some, but will definitely keep an eye out everytime I'm in there (which is quite often)! ;D
