if it is small qty, you can try to get from some mini labs.

if it is big qty, 50 pieces and above, try Photoline 67428006.

I called up one of the suggested suppliers but I was quoted 70cents per piece. This is over our budget. I am hoping to find something around $0.20 - $0.50. I can settle for the simplest photo frame out there, even the not-so-thick type. Help please!

$0.70 expensive? well, you go online check out the oversea prices.
I think you buy cardboard and DIY will able to stay within your budget.

btw, good quality art card A1 size can be cost more than $5 a piece, can only cut into 8 pieces of A4, still overshot your budget.

thanks for all the replies. you have given me an idea that maybe I should start exploring /sourcing out other ways to 'package' my photos.

please understand that this will be used for a business venture and not just for a one-time event that's why we are trying to cut down on cost as much as possible.

i'm still hoping though, that maybe somebody, someone out there knows anyone who could supply this for us within our budget.
