Was wondering if somebody might be able to help. I am in need of a flat file for my poster collection that has gotten out of hand. I would like a good website to go to or be pointed in the right direction. I have about 100 posters all in mylar and need to upgrade to store them. Also if anyone has one they might want to get rid of thanks

    I'd check your local Craigslist....I ended up getting mine for $20 or so...

    Usually architecture/engineering firms sell old ones on there....

    Ebay always has them, and some are really good deals, but they are something you really need to find locally as the shipping can be more than the file itself. Craigslist is also good, but they seem to go fast. You can also check with anyone in your town that deals in used office furniture. Ours has a waiting list for them, but they do come in. Good luck. :)

    I got the 24x36" about a couple months ago and love it. It's very high quality. The cost is really its only downside. The refills are pretty $$$ too. It holds 40 double sided sheets, all acid-free, etc. And its nice that every poster fits!

    I also have an Itoya 18x24" for the smaller posters. I got mine for $30 I think.

    Good luck!
