If you are paying the above prices for re-prints anywhere in Australia you 
are paying way too much. Take as an example a pro lab here in Perth, Mirage 
Photographics (www.miragephoto.com.au) who have the following prices for 
prints:

6x4     $1.00
7x5     $2.40
10x8    $5.70
14x11   $12.00
20x16   $23.00

If your local mini-lab is charging above this then you are getting ripped 
off. :-) Time to find a pro-lab with reasonable prices.
