Picture Frame Mat?

Any ideas where to find a framing shop that will cut a picture frame mat? I tried the place at the rear of the underground Gongbei market, and all of their suitably colored matboard was scratched up, bent corners, etc. (The owner was rather unfriendly as well, naturally insisting that damaged matboard was perfectly OK.)

Maybe the ones you saw in

Maybe the ones you saw in the shop they were the sample pieces. usually they are quite damaged. but the end product should be ok.
I know there's another shop in Jida, it's in Shuiwan Rd, in front of the South oil hotel. but much more expensive then the ones in the Gongbei underground.

Thanks Anais. These were not samples, typically small squares on a ring, but the full and partial sheets from which mats would be cut. No others were available. The charge was reasonable at 15 kuai, but when the woman with whom we were dealing took the board we selected to the manager, actually in an adjacent shop, he declined to cut the only undamaged section of the board, despite the rest of the board being unusable. We'll look for the Jida shop you suggested.
