Need help finding heavy white card stock. Sam's club not selling Neenah now.
I wanted to stock up on Neenah card stock before my Sam's membership runs out. But they don't carry Neenah anymore. I want to buy more then 25 sheets. I've been looking at prices on other card stock, has it gone up? Thanks for the help.

Gina K has Wonderful White cardstock. It's heavy, You can use Copic's on them, It doesn't bleed through.
I too love the Gina K. Pure Luxury cardstock, in both the 80 lb. layering weight and the 120 lb. base weight.
Papertrey Ink's cardstock is also very heavy and sturdy for card bases. However, I prefer the Gina K. cardstock because it has a smoother finish and because the white is a brighter white than the PTI cardstock.
In my personal experience from ordering from both places, Gina K's was packaged better so that it did not arrive damaged. Although the PTI cardstock had less packing material around it and it arrived with smushed corners, I feel that UPS and PTI were equally to blame because the corner of the box was crushed.
Subbing. Always good have multiple resources for Neenah. And I will say I bought Gina K luxury in colors a few months ago and the quality is excellent as are the colors. I'll stick with Neenah for my white, though.

ellenhutson.com sells Neenah in bulk. What they call a "ream" is actually only HALF a ream(250 sheets), but the price is still good. When you compare the price, be sure it's the same weight paper you've been getting from Sam's Club. It seems lately many of the vendors we use opt not to state what weight paper they're offering. The difference between 65, 80, and 100 lb. is remarkable, especially these days when the properties of ink have changed so much that a crisp stamped image depends alot on the quality of the cardstock as well as the stamp.
