Decent Place To Find Rhodia Paper In Canada?


IsaacTaylor

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know of an online store that will ship to Canada for a reasonable price? Perhaps a "spend $75 get free shipping" kind of shindig?

Gouletpens wanted close to $50 shipping for 4 notebooks and I haven't seen a better price elsewhere.

I see that you are in victoria, BC, I think there are a couple of pen stores around there, probably someone has them for sale? Here in Calgary, Reids Stationers has a decent selection of Rhodia products, but I'm not sure if they ship out.

 

Wonderpens.ca has Rhodia products too, I think they charge $7 shipping in Canada.

The praise of the praiseworthy is above all rewards.

Thanks for the Wonderpens.ca suggestion! I just checked it out and the $7 flat rate is golden.

Much appreciation.

They're out of stock for the notebooks I was looking for, but it does have an insane selection of ink...

Thanks for the link!

I sometimes buy Rhodia notebooks from Opus Framing and Art Supplies. I know they have a store in Victoria.

I just received 5 Rhodia notebooks from Wonderpens. Highly recommended. Excellent shipping and great communication.

I already picked up what I needed from wonderpens.ca, but I had no idea Monks or any brick and mortar store would have it for that matter. I'll check around locally next time.

I visited Wonderpens last month during a trip to Toronto and liked it quite a bit. I'll definitely drop by again the next time I'm in Toronto.

Several stores here stock Rhodia and Clairefontaine, too. For letter writing (Clairefontaine pads and envelopes, plus some other good stuff), there is the Paperie on Fort and Douglas. For pads and notebooks, try Opus, Monks Office, Island Blue and, out at UVic, the bookstore (also has Leuchturm notebooks) and, in the student union building, there is Zap, which carries Rhoda and Clairefontaine notebooks and pads (cheapest I have seen in Canada, barring perhaps Midoco on Bloor W in Toronto).

 

For pens, there is not much going, I'm afraid. Island Blue and Opus carry Lamy Safaris and some Faber Castels (Looms and Basics, medium nibs only). Simply The Best on Broad has a wider variety but is rather pricey and most of the reviews are not complimentary. Monks Office on Fort St and, oddly enough, the small stores on MacKenzie (Tuscan Village) and at Royal Oak have some fountain pens, the best deal being the Pilot Metropolitan at $19.

 

There are a few more places in Vancouver, the best being Vancouver Pen on Hastings. Sad to say, for anything else I use Wonder Pens in Toronto, Jet Pens i(and occasionally Goblet pens, but the postage is awful) n the US and Cult Pens in the UK. If I do order abroad, my preference is for Cult Pens as they are really, really fast (last order took four days to arrive!).

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
