I ordered one from them (they act as agents for another company) as a present for my sister and i have to say I'm over the moon with it.:D

24x30" from an uncropped Jpeg and it looks absolutely awesome.

Plus as a Costco member you get 25% of the other companies prices.

Great to know. I may just do the same thing soon. How much did it cost?

The 24x36" was £59 incl delivery which i didnt think was too bad - not sure about the dollar equivalent. The Jpeg was taken full size from the RAW (3888x2592)

They also allow you to create tryptch canvases as well.

The link is http://www.costco.co.u​k/ (external link) (click on the Catch in Colour box to go to their site with the discount- so long as you have your costco membership number)

There are various options regarding sizes and also edge finishes (gallery wrap where the image is wrapped round and mirror wrap where the image is reflected on the edge - thats what i picked as i didnt lose any of the image that way).

I would have to say i would order from them again in a second if i had another canvas to print.

Im glad i could help.

Im a firm believer in the view that if people live up to expectations and perform well, they deserve the credit for it.
