Prices
Prices are for the finished, printed poster, in Canadian dollars, across every poster in the catalogue. US orders can pay in US dollars at checkout; the US-dollar figures below use the same fixed rate the checkout does.
| Range | Products | From | Typical | Up to |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| All custom posters | 26 | $12 CAD | $26.50 CAD | $110 CAD |
| Framed posters | 9 | $31 CAD | $95 CAD | $110 CAD |
| Unframed posters | 17 | $12 CAD | $20 CAD | $42 CAD |
“Typical” is the median. In US dollars: from US$8.76, typically US$19.34.
Every price follows one public rule: the print partner’s base cost, times 2.2, converted to Canadian dollars and rounded up to a whole dollar, with a $12 floor. Size, material and print method all move the base cost, which is why the range is wide. How we price a gift explains the rule.
Shipping cost and delivery time
Shipping is charged per order, at the first item’s rate; each further item ships at half its own rate. Delivery windows are business days from ordering and include printing.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Canada | $15.88–$73.01 CAD | $19.44 CAD | 2–30 days (typ. 15) | $45.94 CAD |
| United States | $9.58–$80.13 CAD | US$12.49 | 2–15 days (typ. 5) | US$31.83 |
“Typical cost delivered” is the median poster plus median shipping, before tax. Standard shipping is free over $99 CAD ($75 USD).
For a date, use the delivery-date checker on the product page: it uses that product’s own window. For holidays, see the order-by dates.
