Wow, thanks for the quick responses from Sam, Tom and Lou! After
reading all three's very positive feedbacks I bought what he have in
stock without much hesitation (guranteed more than I can quickly
finished myself) and got an even better price! It ends around 4 sheets
of 8x10  for one dollar if I cut it into that size. That is close to
now famed Costco paper price :).  If anyone else want to try this
paper please let me know as I said I have a little more than I can
finish quickly. 

By the way, I am a little disappointed with Costco paper. Costco
glossy paper does not work well with Epson (original ink) C82/84/86
Black Only printing. But Ilford Galerie Smooth Glossy works. They are
not the same paper even if Ilford is the manufacturer. I believe
Ilford brand has a better quality or higher manufacturing
specification, even if Costco paper works better with MIS inks. This
is also reflected in its price. Just my opinion.
