Can't find an appropriate airmail envelope at the post office? That was my experience this morning…read moreat both my local post and the main post office around the corner from the Stadthaus. Fortunately, I remembered this fab, four-story, paper goods-and-more-store was just a few blocks away from where I was and went straight there. As usual, I was greeted immediately upon entering the shop and took notice of how the employees seemed ready to jump in and help could I not manage to find my way to the parcels and packaging area. Zumstein is very well 'signed', so one needn't wander aimlessly from floor to floor looking for that one special item unless one really wants to do so. I've done that, too, and it's sort of a magically journey through office supplies, art supplies, and mailing supplies (they also have a parcel service, but I didn't get the specifics on it). As has already been mentioned in other posts, the employees are professional and helpful. I usually feel very well taken care of when I'm in Zumstein. This place is a must-visit for anyone who needs to post an item, write a letter, make a bit of art and then some.

This is the place for all your stationary needs. I was looking for heavy/fancy paper and they carry…read morethis. Range of weight and also that matte frosted "wax" paper/envelopes as well (not wax, just looks like it...don't know what it's called). Prices for these fancier papers were fair, as long as you're not looking to buy in bulk, it was reasonable. If you're looking for adhesive 3M hooks, they have it here, whereas JUMBO carries only the brand Tesa. If you want English bday/novelty cards, they carry a range but it's pricey. The German ones are about 2.90fr and the English ones are about 5.90fr or so. They also carry party goods eg) balloons, bday candles, etc
