At first, it was tough to find - it's in the basement of Frandor near the tanning place. From the second you walk in, you can tell this guy has everything - from fancy light setups for feature TV/films to speakers of various sizes and everything in between. Dave took the time to explain everything very thoroughly because he wanted to make sure our event went off well/we were prepared. During the gear testing, the original mixer was acting up - he rented us a nicer mixer for the same price - a sign of someone who cares about customer service. His prices were very reasonable for quality gear - music, ceremony and speeches were clear as a bell, even outdoors. His detailed hands on explanations made the setup simple and allowed the event to go off without a hitch. He even helped save my dad a trip back to Lansing from Metro Detroit by stopping in on Sunday to allow us to return the gear before heading home. Would definitely recommend them for any event AV needs - Dave cares about his craft and his customers and it shows.

I have gone to Framer's Edge on many occasions over the past 8-10 years to get photographs and…read morepaintings framed, and I am very happy with all of my purchases. The store has many selections for framing. LeeAnn, the owner, is helpful her workers are usually trained in visual arts. Thus, they are interested in helping customers in choosing a frame and mat and enhances the photograph or painting. Yet, they respect my own ideas about what "works for me." In other words, I have never felt pressured or swayed. They have always been patient in helping me make my choices, and they cheerfully help me choose something that is within the amount I am willing to pay. As a final suggestion: always watch for their coupons. They can help you save a bit (usually about 10%).

I contacted Saper back in December of 2025, to inquire about their framing process and to figure…read moreout a rough project timeline. I had several similar projects completed in the past in another state, but Saper was unknown to me then. Specifically, I had one large piece of film memorabilia which needed some minor restorative work, and three additional autographed photos which needed custom framing and matting. Four projects in total. I called first and spoke to Jennifer, who gave me some history about the business, which was established 47 years ago, and their philosophy as it pertains to preservation. Jennifer assured me that they use only archival-quality, non-destructive materials and processes to ensure the best possible results. Additionally, I wrote an e-mail and received a detailed, friendly response from Roy Saper almost immediately. I wasn't able to bring everything in until mid-January of 2026 because of some medical issues I'd been having, but once I was able to meet Jennifer in-person she was able to help me to make informed decisions about colors, framing materials, and types of glass. The price I was given was fair and reasonable, and I was told that the projects should take about six weeks to complete, because they were still backlogged after the holidays, which is understandable. I did have one minor thing about the size of the matting that needed to be changed a day later, so I wrote another e-mail and once again received a very prompt and professional acknowledgement. Then, sure enough, six weeks later, I received an email letting me know that the projects were completed! I had some concerns about physically transporting them, however, so I called in to ask about what types of packing materials I should bring. Roy answered, and kind soul that he is, he offered to personally deliver the completed projects, which I graciously accepted. He wrapped all four projects with such love and care, and brought them to my house that very evening. When I unwrapped them, I was delighted to find that everything looked amazing! Jennifer was the one who completed the restoration of the one larger item, and she did a fantastic job. Meanwhile, Nathalie was the one who crafted the three custom frames for my smaller 8x10 autographed photos, and likewise did a splendid job. Every detail was perfect, with an artisan's touch and a clear mind for historical preservation. I could not be any happier with the end results, and I will not only sing their praises forevermore, I will also continue to bring al of my future business there. Saper Galleries and Custom Framing is now my go-to spot for all of my bespoke framing needs. Thank you Roy, Jennifer, and Nathalie, for going above and beyond!

A great place to bring your children to find an eclectic mix of children's books that you may not find in your traditional bookstores. Not exactly a place to go if you're looking to buy a specific title. We found the prices to be low to fair, so there are a lot of deals to be possibly found. Overall a positive experience and amiable staff. Worth a visit.
