Im very interested in knowing where that shop is exactly for ages... everyone keeps saying it's in George street, but, Ive walked that street so often (and it's a very loooong street) and keep missing it, daaayyuuum. I need some posters (big DW ones) laminated as well to "preserve" them...the laminating machines in Office works is rather small, tried it on 2 separate branches :(:(

There's a place at Castle Towers that can laminate large-size posters. From memory, it's up the same end as Myer. They laminated a Transformers movie poster for me and the cost was approx. $16.

Thanks for the info, how big is that movie poster? Coz Its just irritating at time that Dreamwave made such non standard sized posters, sheesh very hard to find laminators for it... but yeah Castle towers is much closer than trekking all the way to the city..

Ummm... a standard size movie poster :o It's one of those posters you see in a cinema lobby. They're pretty big so you should be covered (no pun intended) for the size you've got.

I get most of my posters laminated there -- all my big posters have been laminated there. Cost me about ten bucks IIRC. But then, Caso's closer. ;) Anyway, next time we have a CBD meet I'll show you.
