    Hi,
    I've added a buy prints page to my site http://www.photoblog.ie/buy-print/.
    (I don't expect to sell many.)
    I'd like to get some mats/mounts and backing boards.
    Can anyone recommend where to buy them- either online or in store (I'm based in Galway).

    Cheers,
    Pa.

    I'm sure I saw fairly decent quality mounts, boards, etc. recently in Woodies (Dublin) in standard sizes. If you need custom sizes try http://www.360-dpi.com/ - stcstc on boards...

    thanks for the recommendation

    yes i can computer cut mounts for you in any size and quantity

    Be aware the mounts in woodies are generally made or cream core board, they will damage the prints over quite a short space of time. so if your selling the prints, get something better

    and to tell you the truth i think my prices are cheaper than ready made ones from the likes of woodies etc

    I've used framingfantastic.co.uk a few times now. He usually has the mounts done up within the day and couriered down by the next day.

    When I try make an order it does up the price and goes straight to paypal. What about the delivery?

    I was looking for 10 double mounts 11 x 14 for image size 8 x 12.

    Hi,
    I had a look at your site and do seem to be good prices.
    can I ask you what plugin/tool you use for the very nice 'Cart' feature- once you add an item it appears to the left of the screen in a little 'pop out' screen?
    cheers,
    Pa.

    If Limerick or Dublin's handy to you I sell those mounts (for 8"x12" size pics on a 12"x16"board) out of my galleries for 3quid a pop (including backing board).
