Buying One Of My Own - Cost?

I have one of my own images that I'd like to order, matted and framed. Is there a way to order without paying full retail?

Simply order it when you're signed on. You'll only be charged for the cost to print and ship it. Your mark-up won't be included.

Thank you - that was the answer I wanted. Is there a way to find out what the printing shipping costs are? I seem to have a difficult time navigating FAA.

FAA is a retail framer. The only money you save is the use of your own image. You should develop a local wholesale source. If nothing else you will save on the shipping. But there are no wholesale prices on FAA.

I wondered after I just attempted a testing. It's hard to believe that my cost would be $175

This was pretty frustrating. Thank you for helping me understand why I'm having the problem.

I'd suggest you check with a local framer for that size print and how you'd like it framed - I can tell you that a good quality frame ain't cheap. If you are re-using a thrift store frame or such - you might save money - most likely any savings will be in the shipping. I don't like the rolled in a tube shipping - but that's the way FAA does it.

Which one are you trying to buy at what size, Kathy? We can't see your shopping cart that you linked.

Your 24X16 is more expensive than your 30X20 on your mark up on that shot. You may want to check your prices as this seems to be the case on all that I checked. This is reversed unless you have marked them all down for a sale.

Thanks, Joseph. It's fixed now.
