That's an oxymoron: "Discount- Medallions". Here's some more:

If I'm right and you are talking about what I call 'rosettes', that is, the square blocks used for trim, especially at the top corners of interior door casings, you might consider making your own with a rosette cutter; goes in a drill press or also can go in the lathe, and you can find a variety of patterns.......Grizzly (grizzly.com) has these, they are economical......other makers exist, but I've used the 2 1/8" solid drill press cutters with good success, even in hardwood. ($39.95). Their cutter-head style with insert blades has more variety and will do up to 3" knives: you could grind your own profiles with this one.....($29.95 for cutterhead, then $19.95 per knife.....) Just an idea......
