That's my thought on the matter anyway. I just know that I was told it would be more if it was a colour that they were only doing for me.
At Jet the difference may be the time you wait. I have had approx 30 frames done by them. It
always takes 10 days for my stuff. So far I have had black..semi and gloss, orange semi, blue semi, green semi and red gloss. They were all the same price and I never got them sooner than the usual 10 days. I guess if I asked for an unusual colour/finish it might be more or take longer. Jet is a big operation so they prolly go thru the colour range on a regular basis.
