Hi I`m testing the whole photobucket thing. Let me know if you can see these. My wife hates me by the way. I`ve got a few more in the mail.

When clicking on the link, it goes right to your album and works mighty fine, there, Vick!

And a nice lineup of posters, too!

I like the one with nudists! And the Plissken!

Vick you are not crazy but I think you may be right that your wife hates you.

Welcome to the show that never ends.

Thanks! Let's all take our clothes off! I've been trying to find more info on the nudist one actually. I believe it is fairly uncommon. Anyone specialize in Thierry hates "French Grande"s?

Crazy Vick · « **Reply #7 on:** July 23, 2014, 10:21:36 PM »

The latest.
Thanks for keeping me entertained APF

Nice posters, Vick.
Especially like those war-mongering Canucks.
Very cool.

BTW, did they tell you when joined that whenever anyone posts Streets of Fire, I have to post one of the two Fire Inc. vids from the movie?
Great poster.

Very nice selection indeed.

Crazy Vick · « **Reply #14 on:** July 26, 2014, 11:21:39 PM »

Much obliged amigos

So the wife got me a $100 Groupon discount off framing. I let her pick the poster, she picked my circa 1950 German documentary film on Canada ("Kanada"). Poster wasn't super expensive, but have only seen one more on ebay and it was folded and in shit shape, so, maybe this is the only unfolded copy around? Anyway - she really had no idea framing was so expensive. After they honored their current special (25% off sale) and the $100 groupon it STILL came up to $360 for an A1 size and very basic matting, frame etc. THREE HUNDRED AND SIXTY !!

I trust these guys and was quite vocal insisting they "do not dry mount" and ensure the whole bit is "100% reversible". Its all supposed to be UV and conservation materials, yadi yada.

So, in conclusion, my birthday present from my wife COST ME $360 which is pretty fecking ironic. Should get the poster back in 2 weeks. Those snap frames looking pretty good right now...

Yes. I feel your pain. Conservation framing is very expensive. ...nice poster though...

As my BF says...still cheaper than a car..no running cost, just start up cost. So buy it. Pay it. Enjoy it.

Que?

Some frame stores are very expensive. Vick said that after the 25% discount and the $100 coupon, the frame was $360. Without the discounts it would have cost about $600!

I looked online and found this in less than a minute. It's probably not museum grade UV acrylic, like Acrylite OP-3, but if the frame store doesn't tell you the specific brand and type, there's a good probability that it's not museum grade, either.

By the way, nice collection, Vick. Looks like you're into the German stuff, eh?

Wow... i didnt do the calcs just because I didnt want to see the regular, non-discounted price. I would certainly have felt like

, too Vic, but Im sure it will look great, when done.

Just out of curiosity, who was the framer that you went to (that offered this Groupon offer?)

Mirosae · « **Reply #22 on:** October 12, 2014, 01:03:41 PM »

Yes Neo. Good point. You have to ask for museum frames or they might as well charge you a fortune for plastic!

Over here price of US OS museum etc and nice frame (say not standard black) is aroun £180 and that is the cheapest.

Vick, gather next time you might want a $550 coupon discount!

Wow. I can't imagine why it's that much more expensive at every frame store in the UK. Not to be braggadocious, but my one sheet frames, that are pretty nice wood frames, with OP-3, and acid-free backing, cost about $100.

I got a few quotes from frame shops around here, and 2 of the places' quotes, for the same moldings and everything, were much more expensive than the local shop I ended up buying from. It's wise to shop around.

Mirosae · « **Reply #24 on:** October 12, 2014, 01:33:48 PM »

We had a look on the internet. And sure you might find it cheaper in the UK. But when I shopped around in London that was the cheapest locally. Custom made. Not bought over the Internet.

But you are right Neo. Best to shop around. I will have another look again. They are flipping expensive.
