UK paper prices for Canson

[mvandenbos]

Hi guys

Just wondering if I can call on your collective wisdom to source the best prices for some 17/24 inch rolls of both
Canson Infinity Platine Fibre Rag and Canson® Baryta Photographique 310gsm? I've found prices around 97 pounds + VAT for the 17 inch and about 125 + VAT for the 24 inch

Many thanks

Better prices and very good service = http://www.firstcall-photographic.co.uk/

Also at 'Fotospeed' if Firstcall is out of stock.  More expensive though.

Good luck,
Brian

What about UK shops with international (EU) shipping that sell Canson Infinity Platine Rag?
I can't find the best price.

This is where I buy it. They send it to Luxembourg quite quickly:

I bought some paper from Squid Technology recently. They were very good and their prices (which include VAT) are marginally better than those you mention.

Thanks for that info Jeremy.

I thought that large UK shops could have beaten italian prices, but it's not! 
Any other EU online shop with good prices?

I have used Squid and they are very good but currently use dpsb.co.uk which has 24inch 50 foot rolls of platine for £89.83 and baryta for £83.46, plus VAT plus £5.99 shipping. Last purchased Jan this year.

+1 for dpsb.co.uk. A proper company with good service and excellent prices - I bought my printer, display and scanner from them, and a lot of consummables over the years.

It seems a good reseller, however I had to send an email to get an estimate of the shipping cost for 50 A3+ sheets.
It's so "2002" to ask for it instead of having ready made estimates for weight/european country.
Still waiting for a response...

Well I am afraid that is a UK thing, we do not really 'get' the web here just yet. Really good ecommerce sites are a minority in the UK (private and govt sector) and I am afraid the dpsb is no exception - it is poorly designed and its speed is glacial - but worth it once conquered.

I certainly do not buy fine art paper every day... nor every week... nor every month... well; you get the point
I'm happy to wait a couple of days if that translates in a good purchase.

I hope not to go OT but... what about Ilford paper?
I get 50 sheets of Gold Fibre Silk for 92€ (w/out S/H) here in Italy. Any better price abroad?
