HCP CARD of Card & Paper A3 300 gsm Card -White (Pack of 50 Sheets), HCP184

I bought this card in November last year and it was thick and white and silky smooth to write on. This card is not the same! It is off white, mottled and thinner, as you can in the photo compared to the old stock when held up to the light. Is it still 300gms or have I been misled? I loved this card so much I bought this, the A4 and the A3 and they are all the same! Very annoyed!

I have purchased this card several times over the past 4 months in various sizes from A6- A5 from my prints business.I feel I have to write a review to save yourself the time and hassle I have had and I will now be going with a new supplier as I the quality really is shocking!!Every order I have received has been damaged, either open packaging, bent edges, sticky marks or dirt marks.The pages themselves, there are small specks on what I would say 80-90% of the card stock. This might be okay for some, but for a print business where I need clear white card, you can imagine the frustration. I’m having to examine every sheet under a light before I print to see if I have a ‘good’ sheet of card to print with.I now have a huge pile of unusable card and I just feel like this card is so bad they really should not be selling like this!Save yourself the time, hassle and go elsewhere.

I think this is maybe the fifth order of 300gsm paper from this company, which should say all I need to say about how happy I am with their product.I use their paper for art work, for which Jt suits my needs perfectly. Look at any art supply store and you will see their prices are often double (or more) than what I pay here... these guys have saved me a small fortune over the last few months.I have previously ordered several A6, A3 and A2 bundles of white 300gsm card. The white is crisp and bright, the card stock is sturdy as you would expect from 300gsm and the smooth surface holds up very well to the various media I have used - graphite pencil, coloured pencil, and marker pen. I have still not attempted the more ‘wet media’ as it’s not something I use very often. But if stretched properly I am certain it would handle water colour and acrylic paint very well.All my orders have arrived promptly and have been well packaged with no damage. I will continue to order from here for as long as they stock the card I need. I have no intentions of looking elsewhere... in other words I highly recommend this company and this card stock.

not as good quality as my first order of this card, the first time I ordered it was sturdier and smooth finished the card I received today was not the same card it is flimsy and rough to the touch I made my purchase based on the quality of the first order. I'm disappointed that they are claiming it is the same card when clearly is is not it is rubbish and I cant use it for my finished items I sell

can someone please explain why paper quality changes time to time. Sometimes it is nice and silky, good quality paper, but at times, I get different paper which is pretty rough and quality is far not as good (even though I am ordering via the same link). Please advise if this will keep on happening, as I then will have to look for another seller.
