Steven, ypu are correct on all counts. The giclees are framed.
Lacey, the pricing differences are due to market perceptions. The perception is that a canvas support makes the giclee look like a real painting while paper does not. Interestingly, the cost of the ink and reproduction is the same in both cases. Only the support cost is different.
All artists should take a course in marketing, because we usually make such a hash of it without that knowlege. Please see some earlier threads where market forces, price point and buyer perceptions are discussed in some detail.
Remember to the market "Perception is Reality!"
