    Just wanted to air my views guys:
    Was looing at Auto Wall's website and I cant help but think that when it comes to pricing they are on another planet.
    Baring in mind that you provide the base of their work with your own picture their prices are crazy.
    40 x 60 $400.00 or $470.00 for a deeper size canvas - are they on crack ?

    They have Bob Hope & 'no hope' from getting any of my business, I have a gallery here in HK that can provide the same service for 75% LESS than Auto Art....thats the biggest no brainer ever.

    Just my views guys but wanted to throw it out there.

    Then start a competing web site and take their business away from them - but don't just randomly come to a forum disparaging them.

    Simple and to the point! If you made a purchase and the purchase was not a favorable experience, I can see putting a post explaining your experience, but to just randomly post something like this to draw people to your business is pointless.

    I think Da Wolf is just looking for some free commercial air time while putting down a sponsor. If you think they are too expensive, then don't buy!

    I have been 100% happy with my canvas from Auto Wall Art. It is huge and was less than $200. A bargin.

    I would probably order from Wall Art instead of a company located in China. Shipping always takes too long & is costly (even with EMS) from China.

    Where did you get that vintage Goodyear ad in the frame next to your Auto art?

    And their prices are not as outrageous as the OP has attempted to frame it.

    IMO, that is priced fairly cheaply. The cost of the printer alone is likely to be close to 15,000! Let alone the cost per sq. ft. of canvass is expensive; the time to mount...

    Definitely not an arse-raping at all!

    Great price, and if you like the look of the picture your sending, than it's a great picture (to you) as well :)

    Costco does the same, mount your pic on canvas, I just had a pic done, I wonder what the difference is between Auto Wall Art and Costco, has anyone done a comparison?
