I got the "Pele & Exotica suite" a few months ago from Thomas at "Fine-art gallery". Not off ebay though, I went to the gallery (it's only a couple towns over from me). Thomas is a great guy, and carries thee coolest artist.

Remember these are not prints but "GICLEE'S". Very very high quality. The colors are reproduced so accurately. I love mine.

Also all of Ryden's artwork comes framed (the Giclee's do anyway). He has one ultra-cool frame that is specially designed for each piece.

I think Link at Frame Fetish does great work and I have 2 SHAG prints that I got from him (Leeteg tribute & Banana Liquor). His framing style and the designs he cuts in the matte, with the multiple layers really makes SHAG's work pop.

But if you're getting a Ryden Giclee, you will want to keep the original frame if you're looking to keep the value of it at all.
