EU/UK print labs?

Any chance of seeing any UK/EU print labs any time soon? I'm sure Loxley is fine in terms of quality but I look at say, for example, Bay Photo and it is so much cheaper in comparison! It's a shame about the shipping and delivery times though! It would be nice to have a choice of print labs for those of us on this side of the Atlantic!

    Hi Tom,
    Loxley does a great job with prints in the UK/EU/Europe and we're seeing the # of prints through them increase. We're always looking to improve pricing and expand the catalog. Is your concern mainly the price of the Loxley prints vs. Bay Photo (prior to shipping cost)?

    Yes, it's mainly the pricing difference, I'm out at the moment so can't check exact prices but from what I remember a 4x6inch from Bay Photo is about 30 pence in the UK whereas Loxley charges over a pound (think it's £1.20 or so), the delivery from Bay Photo makes it more expensive though on small items. On the big canvases, etc. it was actually cheaper to order through Bay and ship to the UK which seems very odd... Don't get me wrong, I'm sure Loxley's quality is just as good but I'm sure their pricing puts a lot of people off buying.
