I just got my order from Univenture for the case mini binders to store my UM stamps.
I ordered them last Thursday and I got them today.
They are EXACTLY like Sunday International! Same size, same latch same binder rings. And the Sunday International storage panels fit in there perfectly . They both have the same logo for a company called Unikeep imprinted on them LOL
I bought the white ones because they were on sale for $1.07 each. But they also sell the clear ones like SI and those are under $4 each.
I couldn't justify an additional $20 ( for 10) just to have clear ones
Even the shipping was less from Univenture . I bought 10 mini binders and the shipping was only $8.39
I had purchased two(2) mini binders from Sunday International and they were $8.95 EACH. I also bought 2 sets of storage panels and shipping for the 4 items was $8.60 shipping .
I am very happy with these binders !!
PS Gina K has the storage panels and free shipping over $50

I got 50 of the large size binders (for the 8.5x11 storage panels) from Univenture last week. My oldest goes to Ohio State and Univenture allowed him to pick up my order, so I didn't even have to pay for shipping.
These are perfect for storing clingmount & clear stamps on the storage panels. They snap shut securely and sit upright without tipping.
For those considering the binders, sign up for the Univenture newsletter. I have a coupon code good for 15% off your next order, but it expires on 3 Feb, so think fast!
Yes, I've ordered from them but I should have read the details more closely because the boxes I bought had two prongs instead of 3. I can still use them, but have to modify my carrier sheets. (DUH on me) I too bought the white ones because you just can't beat $1.00 each, right?
Did you order the mini's or the larger ones?
I ordered the mini's ( because they fit on a small book shelf I use ) and they came with 3 prongs. They are exactly the same as the ones I bought from Sunday International except these are white. The storage panels from Sunday International fit perfectly,
I am thrill with the price and speedy shipping
For those who use regular CD cases Univenture has a box of 100 for only $25.30 plus shipping

I'm not at home to measure, but they are about 7 X 9" or something close to that....they are exactly the same size as those that Gina K Design sells (except they are white). I'm sure it was an error on my part and have ordered a catalog so I don't make a dumb mistake like that again.

Univenture does not sell the storage panels, but Gina k does and she has free shipping on orders over $50. Sunday International sell them too but their shipping is quite high
Sunday International site says 4 storage panels fit in the mini binder .
I didn't want to have the stamps touching each other so I only put them on one side of each storage panel .
I don't have enough UM stamps to tell you how many will fit in a binder. Perhaps someone else can answer this question. I have 7 magnolia stamps, 3 background stamps and 1 set of TAC stamps in the UM style.
In each binder, I can fit 3 panels with rubber stamps on thick EZMount on both sides of the panels. I have 4 panels in a couple binders because I wanted to keep those panels together, but they are tight. If you use clear stamps or stamps with the thin EZM or stamps that have no clingmount at all, you might fit 5 panels.
To guesstimate how many stamps will fit on a panel, lay your stamps on a sheet of 8.5" x 11" paper (5.75" x 8.5" paper for the mini panels).

Thank you Barbara for sharing this info and starting this thread. I have seen info about the Univenture cases before and have been debating about ordering them for awhile. I think you may have pushed me over the edge and will be ordering them tomorrow. : )
One question though - Does anyone know how they compare to the new SU cases for the SU clear mount stamps?
(Ok, one more question Barbara - where in WI are you from? I'm originally from West Allis)
I got 6 mini storage panels in one mini binder with TIO&O on riley stamps.
I'm considering 15 mini binders and at least one big binder style ( 8 1/2 x 11) before the sale ends tomorrow.
Wish I could find the 8 1/2 x 11 lightweight panels for cheaper shipping then sunday international. They are too high in shipping when these are stiff and will fit in a manila envelope. LOL
I got 20 mini binders. I bought them for my UM rubber stamps. After getting the labels on them, they look much cuter than my cd storage. Now I am thinking of ordering more and putting my clear stamps in them as well.
I see you put Nestabillities in these. How many pages will fit of those?
I mounted mine on chipboard and magnets. I can get 8-9 pages of nestabilities per binder. Depending on the size of the nestabilities, I can fit one or two sets per page.
Thanks. I was just ready to place my order and trying to determine how many I need just for nestabilities. I sounds like I could fit all circles and ovals in one, squares and rectangles in another, and maybe a dedicated one for labels and one for flowers/other shapes at a minimum.
I bought the EZ mount storage panels. I read that those are best for EZ mount cling mounting material . I believe EZ mount guarantees their mounting material "IF" the stamps are stored on their panels. The storage panels for the mini binders are 4 for $3. Sunday International has them, but their shipping is high . Gina K also has the mini panels and free shipping on orders over $50
There are also 8 1/2" x 11" binders and panels.
I bought the mini's because I don't own a lot of UM stamps and the mini binders will fit on a shelf I have for them
Milwaukite, Yes, Caledonia is between Milwaukee and the Illinois border. It is about 22 miles from each.

Hey ya'll! What is EZ Mount? I have been unmounting my stamps for the past couple of days and putting them in CD cases. (The smaller sets.) Obviously, I will eventually have to get the DVD size for the larger piece count sets. I have been reading the forums on the unmounting ideas but just read about the EZ Mount and wondered what it is and where to get them.
BTW I was stationed in Great Lakes, IL and have two sisters on the western border of WI near La Crosse. Got snow?

THanks for this thread girls, I am just getting to re-organizing my stamp room and taking my unmounted stamps out of CD Cases. I think these are like the case I got from Taylored Expressions...does anyone know if they are the same as those? Looks like it to me.
Thanks again, it's been helpful!
Yes, they are VERY similar...although I don't know Taylor's vendor for her boxes.

Oh wow! I saw a cookbook made out of these, but they were charging the $9 price for them and I thought they just weren't cost-effective to make them as gifts. But for gifts, this is an incredible price! Thanks for sharing!!
Please know that I am NOT knocking these Univenture Binders.
I purchase some a while back. And I found that didn't work for what I wanted.
So I went with a 3-ring Zippered notebook and then Purchased White Storage boards from The Angel Company.
This is what I use for all my unmounted Rubber stamps.
I can get in notebook 8 White Storage boards. I know have 3 of the Zippered Notebooks full of unmounted Rubber stamps and now I am starting on my 4th notebook. The notebooks take up a lot less room than you think.
Plus I can take a notebook with my to crops and without taking up a lot of room in my cropping bags.
Thanks....I'm thinking you will get more in these then you will the new SU ones? What are you opinions?
I haven't seen the new SU ones, so I don't know, but maybe someone else can answer that. With the Univenture binders you can fit 4-5 sheets depending on the thickness of your stamps (ez mount or clear).
I just got a set of CM stamps from SU in the new case. The case doesn't have a storage panel nor binder rings.
You can only fit one layer of stamps in the SU case if they have EZ-mount on them.
I measure the outside of the SU case and it is only 1/2" thick
The Univenture case is 1 & 3/8" thick . I have 4 storage panel in the Univenture case
Before I purchased the binder cases from Univenture I had purchased 2 Mini binders and 2 sets of storage panels from Sunday International.
The mini binders are the same and the storage panels from Sunday International fit perfectly in the Univenture binders
Gina K Sells the mini Sunday International storage panels so I am sure they will fit. She has free shipping on $50 + so it is much cheaper to buy them from her. SI shipping is quite high.
I like the new SU cases. They will be perfect for JustRite sets and ordered some.
Hope this helps
Barbara

I took the plunge and ordered 50 mini-boxes from univenture and panels from GinaK. I been using the storage boxes from Unity with laminated sheets (1 side for the index and one side for the stamps) but I find it confusing to look at so many images on a page. I find I miss some of the smaller stamps so I'm starting over with the smaller cases.
For those that are using the minicases how are you indexing your stamps so you can see what is in each box/page?

TIA
you could stamp them. Current sets could have the images "grabbed" from the customer site like some people do for blogs.
Also, I have been looking at the storage binders from Univenture and it appears that they do not have a clear overlay for a customizable sheet to see what is in the binder. I see that Ellen Hutson's binders do have that overlay, but her binders are $12.95 EACH!!
What are you gals doing for stamp set identification? A separate binder for indexes and then numbering the storage binders? Just wondering...
