Think I found the only place in Norway that sells Rhodia!

Staples, in a shopping centre in a wealthy region on the border of our capital of Oslo.

They only carry two sizes of webbies with 90g clairfountaine. When I asked a staff member if they carried anything else by Rhodia, his eyes lit up and he said "Ah! So you use these, do you?" I felt I had been initiated in some sort of society..

We talked a bit about quality and such, and parted with a smile. The same shopping centre has a L'Occitane with very good selection, where I got a deodorant.

This was at CC Vest by the way, if any Norwegians are wondering.

Excellent choice!
It's always nice to find things locally.

Congrats on your find. I love to find great things locally as well.

Those look like Moleskine knock-offs, although the current "Moleskine" brand is itself a knock-off of the actual brand of yore...

We got a great shop in Montreal with all sorts of euro papers: Rhodia and Clairefontaine, but also plenty of odd Deutsch brands in international sizes and ruled white on grey.

Great score. I think you will really like the Rhodia pads and the Bavx is pretty nice as well.

Expensive as heck though, but all imports are.

$10 for the small one, $16 for the bigger.

That's not a bad (local) price for them, to be honest.

The one shop locally that I've found Rhodia products, they wanted $22 for the large 5x5 pad - not even a webbie!

Clearly, this means I need to place another order with Goulet Pens...
