  1. You guys are cheap! I got quoted 3 times the prices from a picture framer in Armadale. Granted, they said that their was an Italian design but when the frames are up on the wall, who can tell and who cares? Black is black and it pretty much looks all the same no matter where it’s from. The expensive framers wanted $504 for my 3 posters but I got 3 pre-made picture frames from you for $185, so I saved heaps !!! I will recommend you.

  2. I’m doing up my movie theatre room with my favourite movie billboards and posters. I managed to get most of them in 60x90cms and 70x90cms poster sizes. I just wanted a black frame, with glass and with openable back so that I can change the posters when I want to. I went to several custom picture framing places and the framers there were wanting $150 , $350 per frame. I had 12 posters to do so I was looking at a big hit. Some of the picture framers started waffling about conservation, museum and preservation framing. They had a closed mindset and weren’t listening to what I was saying or what I wanted. I only needed to temporarily frame cheap $20,$30, $40 posters. One of them kept crapping on and on about his doing only the very best conservation framing and I walked out of there, he was also the dearest. What’s wrong with these framers, why aren’t they listening to what customers want? Anyway, I went online and found exactly what I wanted! Super-cheap, black ready made picture frames and poster frames from http://www.pictureframe.com.au ! The bonus was that they sell them with flexible tabs so that I can open the backs myself and change the posters and prints like I wanted all along.

  3. Its very interesting to see how things have changed over the years. "Conservation" framing is over rated for mine, well at least for everything except fine art. I got some pictures done properly with a acid free mat-boarding and all acid free techniques used. Well thats what the picture framer said to me at least… It ended up yellowing around the top and i found out he had hinged it not with a acid free, conservation grade tape but a normal everyday tape! I paid about 200 dollars for the picture frame. Its been years since he did the work and he has since closed down so theres not much i can do but fair to say i’ll go with something cheaper next time. Maybe he closed down because he was too expensive!
