wooden frames for prints?

Postby jdear on Tue Apr 05, 2005 11:47 am

Really didnt know where to stick this topic, so it ended up here :)

Im currently palying $35 for wooden 8x10" frames. They are good quality, but I want to buy them cheaper so I can sell prints with a higher profit margin.

Does anyone know of some good suppliers?

If you don't mind going really cheap, but they're still OK quality, try the Reject Shops. They have pretty ghastly prints in pretty good frames, which you can keep after chucking out the prints. I know the Reject Shop in Roselands have heaps of them, in all sizes but definitely 8 x 10.

Otherwise, Coles & Woolworths also have them, although they sometimes stock the black ones more than the wooden ones, but if you hang out long enough, the wooden ones will come in eventually.

Good luck in your quest! :)

Does anyone know where I can buy driftwood/rustic/old timber frames from in Sydney?
I'm going to try the markets over the next few weeks, hopefully something will turn up.
