Don't just take our word for it. Here are some of the unsolicited comments we've received from our members:

no one else could locate this paper
“I had just about given up. After having spoken to countless paper reps from all the major distributors and manufacturers I accidentally came across PaperSpecs. You were the only one who was able to locate this paper. I would like to sincerely thank you for all your help in finding me the very special paper that I have been searching for over one year.”

“We have the best spec force out there, but they would need photographic memories to hold all the information contained within the PaperSpecs' database. Now, instead of consulting a library of swatchbooks, they access that same information in seconds through PaperSpecs.com, and are a comprehensive resource for their customers.”

“I came across your site quite by accident. I have been a stay-at-home mom for a while now, and just got back to work from my home, and was wondering how I would get paper samples , and if I got them, where I would put them!! I just wanted to let you know that your site is excellent. I love it already.”

The paper tip you sent out this morning was great! I've always been a little confused about paper grades, so it was very useful.”

I didn't think I could learn so much more about paper and on line. I love getting your e-mail and articles. I'm a busy production manager for a small agency and I've found the information and samples very helpful.”

What Our Members Are Saying

"I was reluctant because merchants and merchant spec reps were calling on us and I thought they were keeping us up to date. In the last year we have lost most of our spec reps - so I was thinking that your site would be a good substitute – but so far - in just one day - I have learned that it is better than spec reps. I am much more up to date than with the info the paper merchants and paper spec reps were giving me."

"I really didn't know anything about PaperSpecs when I came to the site. I have paper reps here in my town that provide me with swatchbooks, but they don't even have access to some of the ones you have. This thrills me and makes them crazy! My reps have even learned some things they didn't know.”
