Hi all.

I know this has been asked before, and I don't want to contravene ephotozine's policy on advertising, but can anyone help with a mountboard supplier? I need some standard 11"x14" board, with a 12"x8" aperture, backboard and bag but I only need about 20 of them initially. The problem is that the high street is way too expensive, and most on-line suppliers seem to charge a heck of a lot for postage.

Can anyone help?

Quote: I use Cotswold Mounts (http://www.cotswoldmounts.co.uk/)
Postage is about £7 - which is on the high side, but not obscene. On the other hand, their mount prices are very good.

.

You might think £7 is high until you see how well they package their mounts.

I use 50 x 40 with a 39.5 x 29.5 aperture and Cotswold charge £1.23 each and (I think) 62p for a back board and about 10p for a bag.

I have hunted around for a good supplier at a good price and Cotswold are the best (by far) that I have found.

It can take several minutes and a variety of cutting tools to get into a package from Cotswold!

Thank goodness there is a polite and helpful real human being at the end of the phone line, unlike anywhere else one phones redirected by countless menus only to be frustrated and hanging on for another endless version of greensleeves.

Well done Cotswold !!
