You can order them through any site that sells posters, but I've had my best luck through www.pictureframes.com.

If you have cheap and easy access to glass/plexiglass cutting and don't mind making your own backing, you can find the individual frame rails at a craft store like Michael's. However, I've tried this route a couple of times and the end result was not significantly cheap enough to justify the time and hassle.

I order mine from quadroframes.com. The are the cheapest place I've found. They have the right size, $60 for a set of 6 frames. Any place else is at least $25 per frame.

They're not the best quality (the frame is plastic), but they work well enough, they are easy to assemble, and I like the simple look. And even though the frame is cheap plastic, the center is real glass, not plexiglass.

Occasionally, they will be delivered with broken or missing pieces, but they are good (at least they have been to me) about sending out replacements for free.

Yero, I'm considering ordering some Quadro frames. I have 10 posters to frame and would like to order one pack of 6 and one pack of 4. Do you happen to know from experience if the pack of 4 is the same type of frame as the pack of 6?

I've gotten 6's and 4's from Quadro and they're the exact same thing, just different quantities

I had never heard of them. And here I thought this topic had been discussed to death on this board. Cool!
