I have not found it in EU, and bought some from the US, along with 
other papers to make a decent order.  For papers that are readily 
available in the UK and US, I find there is little difference in the 
cost, delivered even with express shipping and paying VAT and charges.
(This based on a few orders around $400-500 including shipping.)

It is worth working out the final per-sheet cost taking into account 
today's exchange rate, shipping VAT ... and comparing with your local 
alternative.  Of course it is more likely to be economic for the top 
of the range papers than cheaper ones. 

The range of papers easily available in the UK has recently expanded 
a lot so I find it less important to buy from the US, but that is 
more based on convenience (next day delivery) than price (last time I 
checked the cost for a fairly large Innova order would have been 
almost identical).
