Replaced was delivered extremely quickly. Well pleased with the writing pad. Good quality and good value for money.. Thank you .

Excellent quality pad i just wish amazon didnt keep changing the price

Good value and quality paper. It is more blue than l thought.

I used to write a lot of letters and still write a few, I used Basildon Bond in the seventies and it's nice to see that it hasn't changed in quality. I hadn't used this size before but I like it because you can write a lot on one side and not have a wad of pages to fold up because after all if you're going to write a letter best not to write on both sides of you can help it.

Good quality writing paper received in perfect condition.

I wanted a writing pad that allowed me to fit plenty of script on one side of the page and until I found this pad, I wasn't sure that one could still buy such a high-quality paper writing pad in size A4. I write with a heavy black fountain pen and so it's not usually a good idea to use both sides of the page, due to bleed-through of the ink making both sides illegible and it's apparently 'not the done thing' (however pompous that makes me sound... lol). This pad is perfect. The paper is thick enough to create a lovely smooth writing surface that allows a fountain pen to glide along, uninhibited by imperfections in the grain of the paper. The size is large enough to write a decent amount on very few pages, giving the writer the opportunity to write a good long letter without having to squeeze a bulging wad of folded pages into an ill-fitting envelope, only to find that to seal it means compromising the top fold, in turn the envelope flap must be bent past the fold, creased anew and secured by taping down the tongue! What a mess said the Virgo....lol. Still, there's nothing like a handwritten letter and mine could well be the last generation to keep them alive...Basildon Bond Rule! (pardon the pun)....

This is the best writing paper in the business. A long standing British Institution, Basildon Bond is a delight to write on, especially - but not only - with a fountain pen. Each sheet of paper bears the Basildon Bond watermark of quality. When it comes to personal writing paper, this - or Conqueror - are simply the best. In this age of email, any recipient is sure to appreciate a letter/note written on such fine stationery Note: The paper also comes in shades of blue and 'champagne' (a light yellow), for that masculine/feminine touch - which can be very appealing to the recipient of a Basildon Bond letter/note. Both shades are available here on Amazon. I use the blue shade for especially personal missives; the white for acquaintances; and plain, standard A4 for more formal letters

Why did you choose this product over others?: always like the quality of this paper

Beautiful paper. I didn’t mind waiting for this to ship, but it wasn’t packed well and arrived with a bent corner, affecting every sheet. I waited too long to return.

A throwback to my pen pal days. Go on, write someone a letter on quality adult paper.

Not as luxurious as Three Candlesticks paper but works very well for me. I am very pleased with it.

This is excellent paper and a great size for notes.

I used this brand of paper in my teens in England, and I was happy to see it is available here in the US.
