I have two Scott Speciality albums of the two post variety, except the post are missing. Any idea who may sell them without buying more binders? Thanks. Rick T

Since you do not yet have 50 posts, none of us can exchange messages with you.
However in preparation of that, what size posts are you seeking?
I have 3 pairs which are three different lengths, for different thicknesses of albums. I saved them from scrapped albums hoping I might have a use for them someday.

Apologies for the misinformed post about screw posts.

I don't know of any Scott Specialty 2 post binders that use screws. Therefore, I don't think you are going to find replacements at Home Depot. All the Scott Specialty 2 post binders that I have had were curved solid posts and had the holes at each end for the rod to pass through.

I believe Scrapbooking albums use the same type of posts. It may be worthwhile looking into it. Perhaps look at the Michael's website.

Are your posts rectangular or round? Usually Scott Specialized posts are rectangular. I have a lot of round posts and some rectangular ones if you tell us the exact length hole to hole maybe we can help.

Thanks, Ken and Don. As a newbie here, I apparently cannot contact you to take advantage of your gracious offers. Oh, well. Rick T

It went to your Charter email address but no worries. Please go to this link https://stampsmarter.org/connect/Home_Connect.html and use the form on my website to connect with me. Include the width of the posts you need (measure across the width of the binder, hole-to-hole) and a mailing address and I'll get them out to you.
Don.

For anyone trying to source these at a hardware store or on Amazon the hardware term for these screw posts is a "Chicago bolt" or "Chicago screw" although Wikipedia says it is a "sex bolt"

Rick is looking for the typical Scott square post but ones that are only around 1" (I check my spare box and do not have any 1"). If anyone has some, please let me know.
