If you found some online recently, I should would appreciate a link!

My regular local vendors are out of stock.
 
Paper is still very challenging from day to day. I’ve been using Chorusart for a while now since sometimes it’s the only coated paper I can get. Not my first choice but not much is these days. Our local Lindenmeyr shows they have the same Chorusart that you just bought online. I’m sure I could ship some to you but shipping costs will raise the price significantly (my price was less than $99/400 though). If you need some you could message me and I can see what the costs would be to get it to you.

Didn’t you mention that Lindenmeyr was taking over your current distributor? Maybe see if they’re willing to put it on order for you. I just waited 3 months for 10,000 green #9 envelopes and they came bulk packed in boxes of 2,000.

Thanks for the offer! I don't want to put you out just to save some money, but will take you up on your offer if I simply can't get any. Tanks again!

I'm not familiar with Lindenmeyr. My vendor was Lewis Paper who was just bought by KellySpicers. They're still combining warehouses and neither has 130#

how can you (or anyone) afford to wait 3 months?! I'm guessing your client simply understood and waited?
 
We have a local paper company that seems to have Titan 130#C in stock fairly regularly. I just checked and they don't cover your area, but maybe there's a local vendor that carries it.

Thanks for checking! Titan is what my local vendor carries. They're just out
 
I haven’t seen any for a long time, good luck. Last time I had a request I made a substitute (14pt c2s) but good luck getting that too. I will always help our customers find what they want but most of them know by now they have to be flexible on paper or price or turnaround (sometimes I can source odd things but at a much higher cost).
 
West Coast Paper in Seattle lists Titan 130# Gloss cover 12x18 with 43,500 sheets in stock. They also have 17,500 sheets of 13x19.
I've been told that a lot of paper suppliers are not accepting new customers as they're primarily focused on supplying their existing customers.

I don't see how the paper suppliers are making money when everything is at 0 in stock. When they do get stuff in it is gone within hours, crazy business to be in.
 
Mac Papers here in South Florida is out of everything since they got bought out. I just asked for Tyvek sheets and they said Dec. they should be getting some. Really?? My customer won't wait till Dec.
