Default Marco's Paper

Anyone ordered from them? What has been your experience? They have a couple items I've been looking for that everyone else seems to be out of stock forever. How fast do they ship. Thank you in advance for your input.

I did some wedding cards (invitations) for a friend a few years ago and Marco Papers were AMAZING to work with! nothing recent, but five, ten years ago ... fabulous people to work with.

Their prices are good = good discounts and big variety. Pre-ordering new items on the market = good prices and free shipping. They run an annual special with free shipping on their paper....I've order what would amount to several pounds of paper - discounted and free shipping. Shipping on that much paper could prove expensive.


If the product is in stock, shipping is good. If there's a pre-order included in your order, there will be a delay.

I like using Marco's and order frequently from them. If you need a product quickly, why not call them and ask about their turnaround.

I ordered some foil paper for my Christmas cards from them late last year. I was surprised at how quickly my order arrived. The paper was well packaged & arrived without bent corners. I would definitely purchase from them again.

I am a very happy customer of Marcos Paper - have been ordering from them for years. You might want to check out their Blog - the owner, Greg - has a great sense of humor plus he shares a lot re: stamping shows all over the country that he participates in every year (and has for many years) and also he shares a lot about his family.

Wonderful customer service and they almost always have like a 20% discount on preorders and often that is accompanied by free shipping.

I just placed my first order with them a few days ago for a Tim Holtz Clip Carousel. They had it discounted and with free shipping because it was a pre-order. It shipped the day after I ordered it, though, and the person I spoke to on the phone was very nice.

Haven't ordered from them lately as I've switched to PTI Stamper's Select while cardstock, but I used to order from them all the time and never had any complaints. I'd say, go for it!

I did order from them a week ago and received today. Very well packaged shipping was quick. My only annoyance is they did not provide a tracking#. Assume they would have the info if needed but was surprised it was not provided. I would definitely order from them again.

I have ordered on line from them for years and never had a problem . When I lived in Ohio I shopped in their store in Centerville. The people there are very knowledgeable and helpful. If you have a problem there is always someone at the store to take your phone call.
