Why we do not send giclee samples
We are sometimes asked to send samples of our materials out. We have done so in the past and our operating costs have surged dramatically. Because of our high position in the search engines, we spent a lot of time and money printing and mailing the small giclee samples to many people who were just curious about the materials but not serious about printing.
Many other printers do have samples but they have to factor the expense in and pass the costs to the public. We offer something more effective for a small fee: for $15, priority postage included, we will make a print of your file on the substrate of choice. Any additional substrates are $5. If you do not have a file, we will send our own samples for $15. We strive to keep prices down to benefit our customers.
We use premium 300+ gsm pure cotton watercolor papers, well known canvas manufacturers such as Fredrix, Hahnemuhle and Bulldog. Be assured we do not save on substrates by buying low cost materials manufactured abroad.
To this date we have never had anyone asking for a refund or unhappy about the materials we use. We plan to keep it this way!
