I find myself low on sleeves and my source has dried up. Where can I get protective sleeves?

I am also down to my last 50 cardboard mounts. I will be out of them before too long. Anyone know
a good source for either?

Anyone switching to digital and have supplies of either they want to unload? E-mail me.

I had a run made last year and offered 'em here. They were
pretty expensive even at the volumes I had made for the bulk
order. Look in the archives for last year's pricing.

I'm open to doing another bulk order if there is interest in it.

I heard from another user that Dalia had mounts available a
couple months ago. I'd check there and buy what you can
before they are gone.

If you come up dry, post back and let us know how many of
what types of mounts you are after. I just did an inventory
so have a pretty good feel for what I can spare (if pressed).

I saw that. Last year I had plenty and was using some mounts that were too tall for those sleeves.
I can not get those mounts anymore so that problem is solved..

How large an order do you have to have to get another run?
I was hoping to buy some from your last year order or other brands from those not shooting MF
anymore. Maybe they are not reading this group now.

Last year when I tried to buy some from her they were already gone. Apparently she doesn't order
any until she is out and has a big back order. She also only carries the black square mounts that
RMM once carried. AFAIK those are the only 132X80 mounts available commercially now. Correct me if
I am wrong. I can cut my own by hand if I have to.

I located some sleeves so the panic is over for now. Could be interested if you are getting another
order together.

I only buy the cardboard mounts with 50 to 52 mm square windows in them. Don't really want to use
the plastic China 3D World mounts.
