Just re-found this site - www.artistcraftsman.com/ and noticed that their Rhodia selection was offered at a 20% discount. In addition, shipping is flat rated at $7.00.

 

Looked good to me as compared to some of the other prices (especially with a shipping charge added.

 

No affiliation.

 

Another attractive opportunity from your friendly pen, paper and ink bargain hunter

Dickblick sells at same price or slightly less and free shipping on orders $59 or more.

And periodically (usually about half the time), they have these sales where they take an additional 15% off and free shipping if you buy a certain amount.

 

When they do this, its by far the best deal on rhodia products and worth stocking up.

There is an Artists and Craftsmen supply B&M store here in Pittsburgh. I was in there a week or two ago, but their Rhodia carousel seemed pretty picked over from the time I picked up a full sized pad (No. 18).

OTOH, one of the local Barnes and Noble stores now seems to be carrying Rhodia pads as well.

B&N usually has a bunch of nice pads / journals where I live. One of the reasons I like stopping in there - office supply stores are pretty hit-or-miss for nice paper, while indie bookstores often don't even have journals! Hurray for chain bookstores. :)

Just to mention, Dickblick (no affiliation) is currently selling rhodia online at 45% off retail price and free shipping, if you buy in bulk. Its quite a deal.

Would you have a link to the deal?

 

Went to their regular site and all I saw was the 20% off with the regular shipping costs.

 

Very interested to know what is considered a "bulk" purchase.

 

Thanks for the heads up.

Look at the very top of the page, it has their sale code CDLT which gives 10% off orders $69 or more, 20% off orders $99 or more or 25% off orders $149 or more (which in addition to their usual 20% off would add up to 45% off). They also have free shipping for order $99 or more.

This obviously is not going to be so great if you only order a couple notebooks. But if you stock up it could be quite a deal.

Either stock up or consider doing a group purchase on things that I want, that friends may also want.

 

Thanks for the heads up. My initial analysis was that the additional discounts did not apply because the products were already discounted, in the Rhodia Pad case, 20%.

 

Now I recognize that it is cumulative and a lot more attractive.

Yes, its cumulative. I just got some Rhodia #18 notepads (regularly $9/pad) for $5.39/pad with free shipping. :)

      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
