To quote Jason from
this thread: The 'Rise Above' won't be offered as 18" x 24" prints
He doesn't say they won't be offered as the larger offsets though

These are nice, but what keeps me from buying is first of all the price, then knowing that on top of the 400, I am gonna shell out at arm and a leg to have it framed due to it's huge size...

I dig the M16 and Cop. Anyone want to split a set?

My bad, I assumed they were as its another set of 4 priced the same. I cant drop $800 on 2, but I dig the images so darn much. In all honesty Id rather have them in 18" x 24" format than this big.

my dad was about to buy two of these and changed his mind when he saw the shipping charges. I tried to make excuses then gave up when I realized he had a good point.

Would they be shipped any better than the 18x24....Or would all 4 be placed in a tube for UPS to destroy?

You could ask Jerry in Ducky Waddles how much he would charge to ship the prints. In my experience he is a whole lot cheaper than ObeyGiant when it comes to shipping.
