Looking for paper advice for UGC

Vypertech:
I want my covers to look nice, have deep blacks and sharp text/images. Hoping to find something on amazon so shipping doesn't kill the price. What are your go-to's for paper?
Quazimoto:
I don't think they're on Amazon, but I've never had a problem with anything I've printed on Red River Paper products.  Always great prints with bold colors and deep blacks.  Frankly, a lot of times, the stuff I've printed on Red River Paper looks better than retail covers.
Bear78:
I'll second Red River Paper.  Great product and worth the price.  Personally I use the following:

8.5 x 14 (Legal)

You don't really need gloss or semi gloss paper, quality matte will look just as good in the case.

Vypertech:
Ok Red River it is then  :)

Oh yes! I mentioned Red River 50lb Premium Matte Double-sided legal size paper in the other forum thread you started. Lots of people here have talked about how good this paper is. I think it's a great paper too. I personally have never used it. When I bought my Canon Pixma TR7520 inkjet printer in October 2018, I ordered Paperworks 48lb Semi-Gloss legal size paper. I was blown away at how good the print looks. I still haven't used all 50 sheets because I rarely print any video game covers.
