Has anyone ever used this system, either for displaying in low-key shows or selling small prints?

I do not have the space or the time to cut my own mats, plus I'm still on the fence as to how serious my business is yet, etc etc... but it was getting very expensive having each print order custom matted/mounted by my local framering shop (and this included the wonderful close relationship I've cultivated with them over the last two years!).

I am looking for some easier, but still professional solutions to selling small prints. I'm going to place an order this weekend to see how it looks/feels/works but I wanted to throw it out there in case someone has some firsthand experience with the product.

Thanks

    I don't know anything about this product, I couldn't see any material specs. I use Frame Destination, and have been happy with their products and service.

    I use acid free matting, acid free 3/16 foamcore, and inen tape, with clear bags.

    That is how I work with alot of my photos (ready for framing but not framed) unless I want the frame to put on my own walls or a client requests a frame. At the college I go to every now and then that is the style they always use for showing prints (without the bag that is). The one difference is I like doing my own matting so I don't know their product.
