Not a bad product for the price I was worried buying from a 3rd party retailer, but it's certainly more worthwhile than the big guy's 5 sheet packs.
Nice, glossy finish on one side, colors print out nicely on my Canon MX700 Inkjet, no issues with ink smudging, comes out dry right away.
It's possible to scratch, but only if you scratch it really hard in general, if you're interested in making stickers that you want to more long lasting (and this applies to all sticker paper, regardless of brand), get a bottle of Krylon Crystal Clear Clearcoat spray and give the stickers a good cover of that, and your stickers will last a long time, including water-resistance.
The sticker aspect of it does its job,holds the sticker well in place though the adhesive isn't extremely strong like a real sticker would be, meaning that it's easy to peel off and comes off clean. However, I don't expect it to come off on its own indoors. (though I would imagine outdoors it would be another story).
All in all a good purchase.

I got a pack of this and we've loved it. Next thing I knew we ran out, and I'm back for some more. I'm using an Epson, and although I haven't done any scratch and sniff stickers I sure haven't noticed the ink scratching off. If this wasn't available I wouldn't buy sticker paper because everything else I've found is sickeningly expensive. ($1 a sheet or more) Just get this for less than 20 cents a sheet and you'll be glad you did. Enjoy!

I bought this paper to make customized labels to wrap over Hershey's Miniatures for wedding favors. I could have used plain paper or even high-resolution paper but I really wanted glossy in order to make them look more like real candy bars. This paper worked perfectly; I've yet to see a smudge or scratch so maybe that has something to do with the type of printer, not the paper. I use a Canon and printed on standard settings, not even high quality or photo setting. I am perfectly pleased with the quality of the printing; the colors on some of my labels weren't quite what I expected based on what the monitor showed but we all know that what you see on the monitor is not always what you get in print. The bride will be thrilled with how this paper looks as part of her wedding favors and I like how inexpensive it was, how easily it peels off its backing, and how well it's sticking to the candy bars. I'll probably use all this package for the favors and buy another just to have on hand for everyday stuff. S&H were fairly priced and product was received in a reasonable amount of time. Only wish I could buy this stuff in my local stores. Thanks!

Updated Review: I've been using this paper for over a year now (it's 1/31/12 today) and after multiple orders I've come to see why everyone complains so much about it. Sometimes I get a good quality pack, and others not...I've returned 2 packages to Amazon already. I'm now using a Canon MP560 printer and originally had no issues. But on more recent orders with this paper, the ink/paper starts to skip spots randomly. Leaving white speckles where the ink doesn't take to the paper. I've wasted so much time and money trying to print clean pictures. Additionally, with this paper it's impossible to print borderless, the ink starts to fade all along the edges. And I have noticed that my paper has yellowed on the newer packs I had ordered, my older paper still no yellowing. So sure it's a good deal for 100 sheets/$18.99...but I need it for my business, every wasted sheet costs me money. Because it's not reliable, it's just not worth it. Also, a note on shipping..Aside for the two packs I returned, I kept 2 in which the corners were completely crushed in..and one pack had been opened already..with part of the sheets having a bend through out about 25 sheets.
Original Review:
I was originally unsure about purchasing because of some of the bad reviews. But, this paper has great quality, and you can't beat the price. I printed on HP Photosmart D7260 printer with HP Vivera inks. NO SMEARING. I used cheap inks years ago and always experience random spots and smears, if your printing custom jobs..trust me spend the extra money and get good quality ink. The paper is thin (not as thick as photo paper) and has a nice gloss finish. It came with in a few days and very well packaged in a box (no worries about being bent) in the mailbox). I will repurchase this again! Very happy customer.

I bought these for making stickers in my Etsy shop because I couldn't stand buying 30 sheets of matte paper for $15 bucks anymore. I really love these! The colors come out vibrant and they dry quickly! The adhesive isn't as strong as I would like, but they stick fine on flat surfaces. Definitely worth the price.
(And anyone who is complaining about smudging for this product and the magnet photo paper, please remember that it's called photo paper for a reason! You need to set your printer to print photos in order for it to not smudge.)
