WHAT CUSTOMERS SAY ABOUT US
Best paper company around
I am not a professional printer, I'm an amateur artist (retired senior) who does digital painting, primarily flowers, although also scenes on San Diego bay. I am obsessive about the exact color I worked so hard to get just right in my painting be reproduced on the print. I spent a lot of money to get just the right printer (Canon Pro-300). Red River has so much help on line to help people just like me, and I have learned so much from them. I recently ordered some 11x17 paper (Arctic Polar Luster is my go to, although I love to play around with other papers) and when it was delivered, the box was so badly banged up, I took pictures of the box before I even brought it inside the house, thinking I'd be doing a return. HA! Red River packs so well, there wasn't even the tiniest ding to the box of paper inside. You just can't do better than that! Love those guys! I would no more consider changing paper supplier than I would changing hobbies.
