I buy from OmniMap and satisfied with them.
Papermaps are tear and water resistant.

Make o good search for what you are looking and scale especially.

Here is the link: Omnimap.com - world leader in map supply

its little things like people having to specify PAPER maps that make you realise how technology is scooting along

There is just something about paper maps that makes planning a journey that much more special compared to staring at your laptop. You can't spread you laptop on the living room floor and crawl over it! The same reason books will never be replaced by digital readers, call me old school but if travelling was all about digital effeciency we wouldn't actually be trying to do it in person but just take the virtual tour on google earth!
Have fun out there!:thumbup1:
