A ream of budget 8 1/2" x 11" is typically around $4.00. This (budget brand)is twice the size however it is 3 times the price. A pound of paper is a pound of paper. 50% extra for NOT cutting it further is not right.
What terrific paper never gets stuck in the feeder like those other high priced brands. The price was unbelievably low and the quality great. Would be terrific if you would put out a heavier version too
