These two Alan Bean art prints are now up for sale. Both are Greenwich Workshop signed and numbered with COA and professionally framed. The pricing is plus packing and shipping from Calgary, Canada. Reasonably negotiable. |

I can vouch for the excellent condition of the framed print I received. I purchased the Helping Hands item from Noel, and am very pleased with it, and glad to have it as part of my collection. The framing is very professionally done...triple matted in very tasteful colors. Noel was very accommodating in helping get the print packed and shipped from the local UPS store...the package arrived safe and undamaged. |

We have reduced the pricing on these two lithos. - Homeward Bound $575.00 obo
- Moon Rovers $375.00 obo
Shipping costs have been the challenge coming from Canada. Something to consider. Both pieces packed into one box would cost about the same as one individual piece. We will remove from frame and ship in packing tube at your request. |

I will be listing both of these prints on eBay this Sunday if there is no further interest here on cS. I list everything with a $1.00 opening bid with no reserve so they will definitely be sold by next week if nobody here has any further interest. I will be removing the prints from the frames for shipping which is a shame because they are so well done. Make me a fair offer before Sunday and they could be yours. Shipping to the USA from Canada will be approximately $50.00 in a 4 inch mailer tube. Mailing tube would accommodate both prints. |

Yes they have. It's becoming difficult to sell from Canada to the USA and the European market as a result. Overseas shipping from Canada has doubled in the last year. When you sell on eBay, you have to ship with tracking to have protection from fraud claims of non-receipt. Tracking doubles the cost of shipping. Also eBay requires me to sell on eBay.com if I want to sell in USD. When I use eBay.com the shipping calculators do not work for my auctions from Canada so I have to use a flat rate for shipping. In this case I ran the farthest destination possible and posted that shipping cost. After I ship the item and when I know the exact costs I do refund any overages. It's a balancing act, if I charge too much for shipping, less bids vs undercharging for shipping and taking losses. Don't forget eBay and PayPal take 15% of what anyone charges for shipping. That gets added on as a handling charge. |
