Looking at getting a couple of these albums, for those that dont know its basically an album that you take the pages out of and print directly onto them then screw them back in. (see http://www.intro2020.co.uk/pages/opus.htm)

Anyway just want to know your experiences of them and more importantly how many pages can I stick in each book? It comes with 20 pages but I'll need more and I cannot find any info on their capacity.

Thanks,
Mike.
 
ooo those look interesting. The thing I find worrying is that they call the extra sheets refill packs - which to me would suggest that they are for re-filling the album, not adding to it. You are right and it doesnt give a capacity, but reading between the lines I am thinking maybe 20 is the max :(
 
I first saw them advertised 6 months ago and I'm sure the advert said you could add extra pages, as long as the front and back cover are not bound to each other I suppose it could be any size you like, just have to pop to B&Q for a couple of long screws. :naughty:
 
saw these about a year ago when intro were just introducing them, this is the first ive seen of them since. they werent cheap though, but they probably quoted rrp.

paper quality seemed very good though, and i think 20 sheets is all they fit.
 
:wave: Longer screws as the front and rear are not joined together, just screwed.

"The A4 pages are pre hinged and punched to fit the simple yet stylish post system which also allows you to change and add to the content and order of the album."

The above I think would indicate that the books can be added to as well.
 
Ok just an update on these things. I ordered one and 10 extra sheets.
The front and back cover ARE joined and you can JUST fit an extra 10 pages in it but it is a very tight fit. Also the cover isn't that great quality and is only suitable for light use. My original intention was to have this sitting on the counter of a shop but it would be wrecked in a few hours.

So I'm now basically looking for an A4 wedding style album (without wedding written on it) one that I can print my own A4's then holepunch them and screw the whole thing together. Any ideas?

Saw a paperchase album in Borders but it had wedding written on it.
