They look OK (but perhaps a little flimsy). Acoustic Sounds has some more sturdy ones.

I have the ones similar to the second link. Don't know where I got them but they're good. I didn't want the flimsy, thin frames.

Thanks everyone... yes those are way nicer in the links provided... blah I need 28 of them though lol

But yeah I don't want the flimsy ones, plus they won't ship to Canada anyway which is just weird... I think because they are classified as 'electronics' on their and amazon's website.

Check your local Michael's Store...they had some the last time I was there. Probably not as solid as the ones from Acoustic Sounds, but certainly cheaper. Plus no shipping, no customs charges, dollar exchange (although that is pretty much a wash today).

28 frames is a lot.....so this option may save you some cash.

Cool man thanks! Yeah I want all my Alice Cooper records up so gonna be pricey... i will have to figure this one out and make it as feasible as possible hehe...

Does a place like Walmart sell regular 12x12 frames?
Or any deals on ebay canada? I'll have to look after work.

I haven't seen anything at Wal-Mart, Zellers, Ikea, The Bay, etc. I don't do ebay, so I can't advise you there.

ive seen them on walmart.com but the reviews read like they are very cheaply made. i got a bunch from target. they sell them at the store by my and theyre 10 bucks a piece. made of glass and metal plus the clips on the back hold the album fimly in place with just enough pressure.

Anyone can comment on the Art Vinyl / Play & Display Mount VS the Acoustec Record Frame?

I like the Play&Display mounts but they are a bit expensive and I guess I don't really need the ability to swap records super fast. Also are they aluminum frames. I also like the Acoustec frames because they are cheaper and also because they are made of wood.
