Got a good deal on this paper and even got a rebate. I don't like doing the rebate thing because if a store offers a discount they should offer it at the time of purchase and not make customers do the hassle of filling out forms and waiting for a check or gift card in the mail 8 weeks later. Heck it's Christmas shopping time we need the money now. But I needed the paper now and paper is paper so it was okay.
Bought this due to free freight and 96 brightness value. Received in 2 days. Great service. Opened case and over half of the reams covering papers were torn or cut in a way that the paper inside was not damaged but the integrity of the moisture barrier was shot. It's winter and likely I won't have a bunch of jams due to low humidity so decided to keep this but if it was summer I would have returned it.
I buy and use a lot of paper for many different reasons. Cheaper papers can get caught in the printer and cause misfeeds. It is very rare for me to get a misfeed with this paper. I have a dedicated Sharp printer that I do a LOT of printing on. This paper has a good feel and brightness for a basic paper. Staples' sales on this paper also make it a GREAT bargain as well so I buy it for my home office as well. This paper works well for lightweight brochures reports and any documents requiring color or photos.
