I have been printing on my Epson 3850 for the past few years, and very happy with it. Until recently exclusively on Matt papers, such as Epson Enhanced Matt, and Velvet.
Recently picked up some Ilfor Galerie Gold Fibre Silk, in a box of 50 sheets A3+ (bought in New Zealand). I like it very much for some subjects such as the series of market fish I have been doing recently (http://www.pbase.com/kees5/seafood_at_pp_central_market)

But my box is nearing the end, and I want to find out if I can buy the same paper here in Thailand. 

I live in Sattahip, but frequently visit BKK, so could buy it there if i know where.....

I would try contacting the manufacturer of the paper here in Thailand and find out if they sell it here and where.

It was made in Germany for Ilford Imaging Switzerland GMBH.

That firm was bought in 2005 by Oji paper from Japan. Oji has a branch in BKK on Wireless rd. I may go there on my next visit to BKK to see if they sell it here sometime. It is beautiful paper.

There used to be a shop in Chiang Mai selling Ilford but they say they can't get it anymore, I have just ordered hahnemuehle, to see if that can replace it.
Let me know if you find it,

thanks
