Note: After all the messages warning "be careful when putting prints in pages!!!" I chose my scratch & dent Dracula to start with (hence the damage at the top which was already there)

I'd never put anything 24"x36" in these; the sleeves are just way too tight and thin for my liking. I use 30"x40" Alvin Archival Print Protectors for anything big.

Anyone have an extra Groupon from awhile back that they never used? I don't recall the expiration period but if its valid I would be interested. Thanks!

No Groupon, but at Jerry's Artarama - coupon code VIPCYBER gets you 20% off orders of $119 or more plus free shipping plus some other free crap through Friday

Quick question - I'm looking to buy some more 5-pg inserts vs a another portfolio (when the price is right). Right now I comfortably have 10 sheets filed front and back for 20 prints in a single portfolio. I'm just wondering what the max # of sheets everyone has in a single portfolio? 10? 15? 20? more?

I have 25 pages with prints front and back and I feel there is room for many more. I never transport my portfolio anywhere. I don"t know how well it would hold up if I was moving it around a bunch.

I could be talking out of my ass but I thought that I would share something that I recently became aware of. I had a print with metallic inks stored in a Picturesque portfolio in a sleeve that was provided with it. I've since removed it and placed another print in that same sleeve. When I went to remove that print to take pictures of it it looked as if some of the metallic ink from the previous print had adhered onto the replacement print. So I would be cautious when replacing prints into the same sleeve that previously housed a print with metallic inks. I will personally be dry wiping the inside of the sleeve whenever removing a print with metallic inks before placing another print in the same sleeve.

I think I am about ready to splurge on one of these with a couple of refill sets. Anyone know of a good coupon code I could use please?

Thanks for your time.

Or would I be better off finding a 30 x 40 folio? Anyone have a link to one?

Yeah, no luck finding one...

There were similar 32x 42 ones,but nothing good. Anyone know any folio binders like this that are a little bigger?

$100 for a 24x36 with 5 pages. Lowest you will see in awhile.

Use code 46artap to save 30% off the page refills as well (doesn't work on the 99 dollar case though, which is already a steal)
