| A
client approached me in November to give her and her husband a
quote on framing his fathers war medals and
memories. I quoted her $300.00
for nine double conservation matted openings with pictures, and
two drop in boxes (or shadow box in mat styles) for the hat
badge and medals bar.
The
framing was completed before November 11th and the medals were
reinstalled in the framing by us at Ronden Art Gallery after the
Remembrance Day parade.
Why
was she so thrilled? She had been quoted by a framing store
offering 50%
off
plus another 10%
off
and her quote after these discounts was $575.00.
It pays to shop around. It pays to return to someone that knows
what they are doing, what to use and what is a fair cost. |
