Wow! That looks fantastic! I really like the M color matting. Picked mine up from framer this weekend, I just went with a blue surround and the main matte matches some other pictures I have, now wish I incorporated more colors.

I ordered mine on May 5th, should I be worried that it didn't show up yet?

It took just about 2 months for mine to arrive. Getting shipped by snail mail from Australia. There was no tracking or shipping notification. I did shoot the guy a couple of emails and he did get back to me within a day or 2 each time with updates. I think he got overwhelmed with responses as he originally posted the picture on Reddit and had to have a bunch more prints made. Then wasn't happy with the first batch so had them reprinted. The quality is very good.

How did you get in contact with him? I ordered mine on May 9th and I have yet to here anything back from him. I'm considering to call my credit card company and report it as fraud.

You should have got an email confirming your order form him. Reply to that.

It took 6 weeks but mine came. Regular mail from Australia takes a looongg time.

Did you get an email confirmation of the purchase? I would imagine it would be here by now. He is legitimate for sure.

I ordered the same time you did. Delivery took a while (shipping from Australia) but I've had it for quite a while. I'd inquire with the seller.

I contacted him after I did not get a print 6 weeks later and he sent another one to me free of charge. I got the second one in less than 2 weeks. First one has never shown up. I'd contact him.

He probably would be better of paying a bit more for shipping and using something trackable like UPS/DHL.

A little late to the party

Wanted to share this. did the tri-colored matting, and framed it in a sprayed Le Mans Blue frame. I'm very happy with how it came out. Now to figure if this will end up in my office or the garage. First world problems.

Holiday gifts for oneself are the best feeling ones to buy! You're fairly confident that the receiver will like it, usually.

Agree he is legit - just takes time from Australia. I ordered two small prints and he sent one large one. After I emailed him, he sent me the two small ones without asking for the large one back. I did return it.

I e-mailed him again, he airmailed it this time and I received it.

But damn - I didn't realize how expensive custom framing is. I got quoted a "discounted" $168 compared to the original price of $420 at Michaels. Do people really pay $420 for framing, or is this one of the "1/2 price sushi all day" type of deals?
