vellums

DLa News News from Thursday, November 06, 2003 @ 10:15 PM, PST

i found a place to get 11×17 vellum - 100 sheets (21.80) / 250 sheets (51.76) option for 250 sheets = $.21/sheet

thru PaperZone your cut sheets are still the best deal option for 250 sheets = $.19/sheet (includes $20 cut fee added to .11 per sheet price) (47.50)

anyhow..
i found only a small handful of places to check out in Spokane tomorrow, and it seems likely that we’ll end up going with your option above. (which is still a good deal - $50 vellum + ~$15 A4 = $75.00 / on budget:on Time)

i dont suspect i will hear back from any of my internet contactz before we make a decision (if ever.) and that deal you have smells good to me.

———–Pre-:Pre.Business-[wrap.up]—————-

1. documents finished: pre-business photocopies @ 4:00pm
2. bring paper samples for sas-scot to fuckup on home copier:
(rather than mock-up an original and have to print it out first i suggest we each bring at least one color image that would provide a good test.sheet)
3. bring photo archivez for business wrap-up
4. mock-up SOP for hand-out ? — shoot one back and forth?
with templates for either Vertical/Horizontal layout ..(suggest separate loose sheet for easy reference)

planz will be further obsessed over for smooth regular business flow.

Thane_C,

I think your deal sounds better — we would have some sweet h3rium-size (11×17) sheets to play with, and could easily find use for the scraps… and it is only a few dollaz more… (stirr within budget).. (how much more $ would it cost to have kinko’z make two cuts?)

further, I called paper zone back again today (just to double-check on their shit), and, get this, they are giving me yet another $tory. I really don’t want to do ANY business with those incompetent whorez, cheaper or not…

so, we can still discuss, but hopefully you simply snatched some spokane vellumz, or are willing to place an order with your online source.

also, i called my online sources, but to no avail, for this reason or that… thus, i say we go with your $51.76 online deal. rat is the vellum.

sup.

http://www.bayplotter.com/18.htm is the place i checked out for vellums. spokane was a bust - ignorant motherfuckers. people are shitheads. plus there wasnt much to choose from. the only deal i could find was Spokane Art Supply on Monroe St. - they have 19×25inch sheets, which could only produce four A4 size sheets after cutdown: parent sheet 1.95 / making A4 .50 apiece.

i say we look on the internet some more (i’ll look anyhow) and see if there isnt something better. if not, we can order the paper next week sometime.

will discuss all that tomorrow during pre. i will send out/call our associates regarding extended business hours tomorrow. but, where should we do the business? someplace dark, perhaps? i am finishing up the SOP… and will send 2 u 4 back-n-fro editz etc (for finish 2-nite only!). i have question about scot print test page — wtf? digitar? photo? etc? and, i need help developing final SOP for images, trying to take everything (20.50-related) we have experienced thus far into account (ie, orig recipe AND target imaging)..

if you are up for email swappin 2-nite, hit me back, otherwise, i will send out the dla meeting stuff and then email you tomorrow for pranzaz.

ye’ shoot something at me.

i was doing some reading on OCE’ website (large format copy gurus) and they supply some papers too, for their machines. i think that the add you sent with the 100%rag vellum is probably a good bet, afterall. most vellums are about 60% transparency, so keep in mind it will prob not be as see-through as those booklets i made with samplez sheetz (because that is actually MYLAR, which i forgot about..) but the vellum stocks should be about twice as transparent as the A4 papers on the way, and vellum is great for archival purposes too - so those sheets will last longer…

because i am starting to think that the quality of the earlier deal will be comparable, and the price was much much lower.
