Digital BW, The Print

Hi All

Well, I emailed Costco asking if they could share the name of their paper supplier - and 
got this email back. If others are interested in Kirkland in a larger paper size, perhaps they 
could also write to Costco and see if they may stock it.

At least I tried!

Phil

******************************

Dear Philip,

Thank you for your e-mail to Costco Wholesale.

We are unable to share the name of the manufacturer information on our
Kirkland Signature Products, however, I have forwarded to our buyers
that you would like to see the paper available in larger sizes.

Sincerely,


Jennifer K

Phillip-

Interesting. I've seen some prints on this paper and they look great, 
but I'm not interested in paper that I can't print in any size, so I 
am on your list of "large" size potential buyers.

who did you write to at Costco?

Tom O'Connell

A recently placed a call to the Costco store in Kansas City to 
inquire about this paper. The person I talked to volunteered the 
vendor as "UK Limited". When I asked if this paper was made in 
Switzerland or Japan(a reportadly poorer grade), I was told it was 
Switzerland. I later called the Internet Site to order, and asked if 
the vendor was UK Limited. The employee said yes, & I ordered it, 
assuring I was getting Switzerland paper, which I did. I was also 
told that they had no information on suppling larger sizes.

Hi Don,

"I later called the Internet Site to order, and asked if
the vendor was UK Limited."

Do you have a link for that website?
I did a "Google" search and couldn't find it.

Thanks,

Scott

Don,

I'm well aware of the paper, I have a bunch. But you said the paper 
was made by "UK Limited".

I would like a link to UK Limited.

Thanks,

Scott

Scott,
 
The Internet site I was referring to was the Costco site.
 I have no information on a UK Limited site.
