I get mine at the dollar store for $1.50CDN for 2 7" stands. They are just listed there as plate stands.

cheers

@ Transporter...are these units made specifically for Steelbooks?

Don't think so. I'd say these are regular plate holders, but they'll do the job.

Depending on where you plan on displaying them you might want to get some that look decent... I use Franklin Mint plate holders made of wood...

That's too funny! So tell me, when is "Post Card" being released on Blu-ray?

WARNING!!!

I bought some of these and they are too small for SteelBooks or even regular DVD. They may work for CDs, but don't buy them for SteelBooks.

I bought some plate holders myself, work a treat. Can't take pics right now i'm on holiday with 5 minutes on my hands.

Ok i couldent really search for this because my mind has gone blank and dont have a clue what you would call them, but im looking to buy some of these

I just got an all in one tv solution and im looking to display my precious steels, Can anyone point me to a good UK site where i can buy them for a good price? Or even what i would call them so i can search myself?

Many Thanks
Craig

Try "decorative plate holder" or "decorative plate stand" or remove decorative from either one and search that way as well. These stands are traditionally meant to display decorative plates.

Hope this helps.

This has been asked before. Go to a dollar store, or the UK version of it, and buy picture frame stands. They work perfectly.

A user (wiLL) from bluray-disc.de made very nice Steelbook stands

but they are not very cheap (13,8€/exemplar)

[Goatrider]

VERY nice... But with my German I reckon I won't be able to buy some from him...

Maybe this can be made an official thread. I had a hard time finding good solid links. Some weren't in English, some weren't even working links anymore, etc.

Anyway, I found a link to these buried in a thread from a while back and decided to give them a try.

They come in a pack of 12 for $9.05 - I decided to order 2 packs making the price $8.25 a pack. I paid a grand total of $23.86, $16.50 for the 24 stands and $7.36 for UPS ground shipping. At just under a $1 a piece, I feel it's a good deal and they work great. Sorry the pics aren't the greatest but I hope this gives a better idea to those of you looking for a good SB stand.

The two pieces...

They are full adjustable, fit the bigger steels like Monster, Inc. with no problem You can also place them two different ways. One side has a flat back and the other has a slanted back. In the pictures I have the MI standing up straight and the TNBC slanted. They're also very solid. It doesn't feel like the SB could slip out or fall over unless you were really rough on it.

As I said, I just had a hard time finding stands. I hope this helps those of you looking for a quality stand at what I feel is a great price.

They look good. I like how simple they are and the price seems reasonable. It's also very hard to make the Disney Steels look bad

[jaydm]

Thanks man. That's what I was hoping for. It'd be cool to see different types of stands people use. It will also be a good reference for people looking to buy stands too.
