Current mood:  disappointed

I used to paint a few years ago and I want to start again. I used liquitex medium viscosity acrylics and was very satisfied with the results. Then I couldn't find them anymore (I live in Greece) so I tried what was supposed to be the best choices over here...Golden acrylics and Lascaux acrylics. I didn't like their colours though. I found some internet dealers who sell liquitex (medium viscosity) paints but the paints come in tubes or small canisters. I paint on BIG canvases so the 2oz paints are not very useful to me especially when I have to order them from another country. I mean if I run out of a colour in the middle of working on a painting I will have to wait for a few weeks probably until I can continue working. The only place I found with bigger canisters was http://pearlpaint.com/ I opened an account there, took me some time to complete my huge order...then they sent me a form I had to fill and FAX(???) back to them so that they can confirm...fax number wasn't working...took a few emails back and forth until they told me that I can just email them the form...so I did...they said "thank you"...today I receive an email from them:
"DEAR KONSTANTINOS, Your order has been canceled due to unavailable stock. Please note that no charge has been applied to your account. We're sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused."
...that's funny...I ordered almost $800 worth of paints from them...was it all "unavailable stock"... ...I wonder...
Anyways...does anybody know of any internet store that sells liquitex medium viscosity BIG canisters (8oz or 200ml and higher) worldwide? If not, does anyone know of any fluid acrylics that are better than Golden or Lascaux when it comes to colour quality and where I can get them from???
