Do your high quality products cost more?
Our
products are listed at very competitive prices. Some
product prices are less than our competitors and some may
appear to be more. You must keep in mind the quality
of the merchandise. Many of our competitors use low
quality mats, cheap contract framing glass or plastic, and frame
stock that is low grade. The result is merchandise
that needs repair within a short period of time. Our competitors merchandise
may have a much shorter life span due to low grade materials
used in the framing process. Our product uses acid
free materials from Bainbridge ensuring the merchandise will
still look great in the many years to come.
At
Global Sports Memorabilia, we only use the best products in
all our merchandise including Bainbridge Archival Matboard, Tru
Vue premium glass, and a selection of 2250 frames including
Renaissance and Nurre Caxton. We also
custom manufacture our own line of black ash solid wood
frame mouldings, something that is unheard of in the sports
framing industry. This ensures the highest quality you
have come to know from Global Sports Memorabilia. In fact, the
materials we use can be found at your local retail certified
professional custom picture framing store or any fine art
gallery (of course, with the exception of our own custom
mouldings). The
difference, our volume discounts are passed on to you
resulting in unbelievable merchandise at a fraction of the
price.
If
you are looking for the cheapest product, we are probably
not the best choice for you. If you are looking for
exceptional merchandise at a great price, look no further.

you select the custom framing option that works for their
organization, within their budget. Because our designers are in constant training, they are
familiar with our large inventory of frames, mats and
glass. They can help you select the right finishing
touches for your framing project.
Once
the initial consultation is complete, the team at Global
Sports Memorabilia will create several prototypes.
When the prototypes are complete, we will arrange for a
second meeting with you. At this time, you will be
able change the layout, mix and match, re-create, or make
any other changes you feel are important. You can have
as much or as little input as you like, depending on your
level of comfort. Our goal is to create a framed
sports product that you are 100% satisfied with.
After
the second meeting,
we will make a final proof. This proof will be sent to
you for final acceptance. After final acceptance, your
custom framing order goes to our centralized production
center, where our framers will process your
order with the greatest attention to detail. Global
