I use note card sets as gifts and individual note cards for personal correspondence and holiday cards. I have bought this product over and over along with Staples invitation envelopes in the same color. For my purposes they create a classy looking end product.
Card stock typically isn't very bright but this stock made images on postcards stand out. The highlights and shadows showed up very well giving a good detail. Also the toner didn't offset when the postcards were cut and they were cut within minutes of printing. We have used the stock in various print modes - instant print photo copier and offset. There were no feed problems and registration has reamined accurate throughout the runs. We have used them for b/w and color process projects and the results is always excellent.
I find that Staple brand products are always good quality. I never worry that they will not be as good as other name brands. In fact I think they are sometimes better. So I not only get the quality that I want but I get it at a better price. This time I also had a coupon for (if I remember right) 20% off. I am always glad to get the Staples emails with sale items. This is especially important since the local papers to not include the Staple's ads. I do a lot of posters and cards and certainly need to take advantage of Staple's great prices.
