    yes thats the 20" x 30" exactly the same as the one i posted the link for on ebay at "24.99 except i think it was a pound or 2 cheaper but i got mine a year ago, ordered at 10am got am email at 11 saying it was printed and posted and arrived the next day. its printed so when its wrapped your pic continues round the sides so theres no white canvas left and its the thicker frames he uses as in it sticks out further from the wall, when i looked at some other sellers on ebay i found that they were using the slimmer frames but to me the wholepoint in a canvas is that it sticks out as if i wanted flat i would have just gone for a photo iyswim.

    ive no experience of any where else for canvas but i dont think i would use anyone else as when i compared prices when i wanted to get mine last year the ebay guy was cheapest by a mile and his feedback was excellent too

  • I got my hubby one last year from asda for xmas - very good quality - think the size I had was about £40. I got it done in b+W as most of our photos are in this - i prefer them but that is personal taste. They delivered in less than a week too if i remember rightly. All done on the website. Hope that helps.

  • Many thanks to edinburghlady and all other reviewers for taking the time to comment here, I'd seen the prices elsewhere with other canvas suppliers and thought it would cost an arms and a leg, but sure enough, the Time Man lived up to the rave reviews and the extremely high feedback scores on feedback.http://stores.shop.ebay.co.uk/THE-TI...__W0QQ_armrsZ1

    Having just returned from holiday in Langkawi, where I returned to a beach I first found two and a half years ago, I found the perfect beach photo location which, having sent my request to The Time Man for an 18" x 30", he sorted immediately, delivered today, well packed in bubble wrap and "fragile" tape, and a great feature in our living room now.All for £25!

    Top service for a fraction of the cost, many thanks for sharing this!

    AS for the picture.....

    That photo is simply breathtaking - makes me want to be on holiday right now.

    I've been considering using The Time Man for a while now. The photo to canvas would make an excellent present for my parents.
    One quick question - does the canvas come rolled or does it come as pictured in angelkays post, if that makes sense? Is it on a standard wooden supported canvas, packed flat? The seller has confused me by stating that it is 'sent rolled in a cardboard tube'... not sure how that would be.
    I know some places require you to take your canvas print to a specialist and have it stretched there, which can cost a small fortune.
    Hopefully you know what I'm talking about. :o

    Thanks for the comment on the picture, it was taken at Tanjung Rhu beach on the north of the island of Langkawi

    My canvas print came flat packed, wrapped in bubblewrap twice over and with "fragile"tape all the way round it, if in doubt I would suggest emailing The Time Man with your query
