What Our Customers Say:
Found a world map on another 'au' site only to find a horrendous US shipping cost at the end. Then found Picture Store. Not only could I collect the item, but a lovely person actually answered the phone, gave me some information on block mounting, and clarified some of the details I couldn't see on the computer. She advised me they were waiting on the item, and checked whether it would be available soon enough as it was for a Birthday. Collection was a breeze, and my daughter loved the map which is so lightweight she can hang anywhere, but looks really smart.
