Framing is always expensive, but this is more expensive than it needs to be. There aren't a lot of alternatives, though, so you may have to suck it up. The quality of work is very good, and the service is pretty accommodating of changes and suggestions. You can probably find a better deal if you have a car and go outside the district. They occasionally have 50% off framing specials, so if you can wait you can ask when they'll be doing that.
