Experience
Artchitectural.com

https://www.artiplaq.com/Artiplaq mounts prints. The process is that a customer gives their prints, chooses the mount types, and Artiplaq delivers the mounted prints at home.
Products are dynamically created as there is no pre-existing product. The picture that you upload on the site to be mounted is a product and the mounting types are product attributes. The price is also calculated automatically based on the height/width you want to set for the frame.
