Was wondering if /po/ could recommend any good sites where I can buy good and/or cheap Origami Paper.
(Preferably double sided colors)
I can't stand using my solid colors anymore!

China Town has cheap japo paper in nearly every store, same goes for Korea Town (aka 69th street)

I use giftwrap... can get it in dollar stores a lot of the time, especially if you stock up right after Christmas.
Actually, just taking a little care when unwrapping gifts has given me a pretty steady supply of all sorts of neat papers.

I was told to try ebay and delivery is quick even though I live here in England. Origami paper is expensive as hell. Hobbycraft is one place to avoid, I will not pay £4.99 on pack of 20 pieces when there are places which sell them much cheaper. Usually the brightly patterns one are expensive. If you have some spare printer paper you can print out chiyogami types.

Doesn't matter anyway as I'll going overseas and buy them there.

Btw, I live in Ontario. But I'm almost an hour away from any Chinatown. So it's hard to get some. CHEAP that is!

It is a great selection, but I only wanted to buy 10 dollars worth of stuff. And they'll only ship it to me if I buy more than 50 Dollars worth of stuff, because I live in Canada. Rip off. :(

Ontario huh. I know there's about a bazillion places in Toronto's chinatown.
Being a hamiltonfag myself, I've found origami paper in dollar stores here and there. Granted you get what you pay for. Curry's isn't too bad...if you have one where you live.

Never heard of a Curry's.
There is a Michaels about 20 minutes away, but you know, i'm not paying 10 bucks for 5 pieces of paper.

It's like people get into the mindset of

Moral=Don't shop at Michaels.

I know I can't find anything good and of good price there. They're opening a new Michaels here in our small town.

It's jsut a Rich Woman's Store. Older women with money use it to rub into other womens faces. Because buying paper at Michaels is so much better than buying at Wal-Mart. W-wow woman. You just spent 50 dollars on printer paper. I hope you're happy!

I'm hoping I can get to China town one day this summer.
