blank hex maps

I have some old hex maps that I bought years ago. After checking several game stores in town, the closest thing I found was the re-useable plastic type for $30. Does anyone know where I can order the paper kind online? The only ones I have left are very small hex size.

There is a place that lets you print them from a pdf http://incompetech.com/graphpaper/hexagonal/
but it does not print larger that legal size sheets (not that my printer would print them anyway).
 
If you're looking for subsector hex grids, you can download subsector hex grids for free from my Spica Publishing Ltd site. Each hex grid is laid out exactly the same as a CT grid, even down to the size of the hexes and the CT border. Also, each hex grid has the sector hex numbers, rather than restarting at 0101 for each subsector. Sorry we don't do anythiing like large sheets of hex paper for miniatures :(

You can (it's not cheap) take that old unused paper one, and have them run it through the bluprint duplicator... most of the old ones lacked copyright notices.

Amarillo Design Bureau (http://www.starfleetgames.com/) sells blank hexmaps, about 2x3', but they are black with a white grid.

Starfire Design Studio may still have some 3x4' greyscale maps (in 4 greys... light background, lighter and darker rings of hexes, and light or black hex-sides (depends upon printing, IIRC) (look for system scale maps from New Empires or Imperial Starfire). http://www.starfiredesign.com/starfire/index2.html

Chessex may still have some paper ones, as well. They did a couple years ago...
 
You can actually provide other dimensions to the incompetech grid generator, eg 24" by 36". Perhaps you could take that to Kinkos and have them spit out a few large-format copies? I'm not sure what the cost would be, couldn't find that on their website, but that seems like a decent option.
