I'm looking to have some artwork professionally framed. I know framing can be expensive, but holy sh*t! I went to a small shop with a great reputation. I realize there are many factors that go into the cost, but this blew my mind....

The artwork is on the larger size 28.5" x 38"
I did request matting & added spacers (to appear as if "floating")

I was quoted:
with museum acrylic $1750ea
with standard acrylic $1200ea

Having no experience w/custom framing I don't know if this is outrageous or not. I plan to call other places. Wondering if anyone has any experience & can let me know if this sounds right or insane. Thanks in advance.
