Wanted - stationery supplier

Hi
I wonder if anyone can suggest a good supplier of stationery for my small own business.

I used to use Staples but had horrendous problems with them so changed to Viking Direct. They were great but have really gone off recently - letting me down with deliveries then a terrible job getting the credits sorted.

Any ideas?

Thanks

    Hello duhelu

    You might get more responses to your stationery (not stationary;) ) query in the 'Small Biz' board, so I'll move your thread across.

    Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]!!!!!![/EMAIL].

    Regards

    I don't know if it'd help (since you might require large volumes of stuff) but Stationary Box offer a 10% discount card to businesses, you just need to give them a business card to get one.

    Makes some stuff even cheaper than Tesco which for small volume purchases is the cheapest around normally. If you need to buy in bulk though I think you'll get cheaper elsewhere.
  • Hi
    I find Euroffice very useful - next day delivery, good keen prices and wide range of goods. https://www.euroffice.co.uk. They even offer credit accounts for businesses too.

    I would second euroffice, though most companies use the same background company to ship direct (spicers)
