"Order said 7-10 working day delivery"

Order said 7-10 working day delivery, no option to pay extra for speedier delivery. I emailed them after 7 days asking for any update, was told the latest it would arrive is the 12th, but highly likely it could come earlier. Today I called and apparently there's a huge delay with the couriers! But I was never informed, no emails, completely left in the dark. If in my initial enquiry I had been told that, then I could have at least had time to go out and buy the materials for this important project starting today, and got a refund, but I was ensured it would arrive by the 12th. So now my time-sensitive project is royally f*cked, because they couldn't be bothered to not let me know there were delays even after I asked them about it.

No recompensation offered, no real apology, just blaming the couriers. Never ordering from here again. I should have stuck with Jackson's art.

"Finally arrived and a 50% discount for the wait!"

Still waiting for my order. Comms with Customer Services okay, but they have no information on where my orders is or when it will be delivered. 1 * Star

Update: Package has now arrived and I've been given a 50% discount for the wait. Seems someone's listening and working to resolve their transport issues. Bumped up to 3 *** Stars

"I'm still waiting for my delivery!"

I ordered paints on the 24th June, I'm still waiting for them! Nobody has once said to me that they are coming from Germany. Nobody has rang me, but i have rang them 3 times to find out a tracking number. No tracking number has been generated because its still sat on the warehouse floor apparently! I'm so sick of waiting now, 16 days and nothing. its been sat on the warehouse floor since the 25th June I was told. If you would be honest with people Great Art, people might be more understanding. I'm incensed that is still sat on a warehouse floor! WHY? can someone tell me WHY? and will it ever get picked up? What is the hold up? I wanted some of it for a birthday present on Thursday! so thanks for messing that up for me. How will you ever get anyone coming back to shop with you, when you treat people like this. I'm still waiting!

"Great products, awful delivery service and tracking"

They sell great products. What they don't tell you upfront is that the stuff is dispatched from Germany and will take three weeks or more to arrive. I ordered six frames for a show with almost three weeks' notice but they arrived too late. Hopeless. There is no tracking information on the website other than "dispatched" (meaningless) - all in all a very disappointing experience. I will not use them again.

"Do not use this Company for their online shop - delivery service useless"

I placed an order on 8 May it is now 21 June and still not arrived. I attempted to track the order online but absolutely no tracking details provided. I spoke to customer services who advised me that the order had been returned to the warehouse in Germany, but that he would attempt to place it again. A couple of weeks later still nothing so I emailed/called only to be told it had been returned again. I was asked whether I wanted a refund but told them to find out exactly what the issue was as that is their job as a customer services agent. I really wanted the product so was prepared to give them another chance, but I have now had enough. Patience has run out. The delivery service is useless. How hard can it be to obtain a tracking number and advise me who their courier company is. They couldn't even tell me whether a delivery had been attempted, all very strange. I found myself telling the customer services agent how to do his job and find out what was going on. I explained perhaps it was the incorrect labelling on the product and for him to contact the warehouse etc, which he should have done in the first place. I do not understand why a tracking number could not be obtained either.

I have now requested a full refund and would not recommend using this company for their online delivery services as they are totally useless. You just go back and forth and round in circles. Such a shame as I'm sure the products are fabulous and the shop in London looks amazing, but if you want something delivered efficiently forget it go elsewhere.

"I placed quite a large order for paints…"

I placed quite a large order for paints which was due to arrive by Monday (7-10 working days). There had been no sign so I called the company. I got to speak to someone straight away and he clearly had my order up in front of him based on my phone number before asking me to confirm the details as he said straight away that he could see it should have been with me. He explained the products come from Germany and the shipment had been delayed and it would be with me by Wednesday-Thursday. I told him Wednesday would be ok but explained Thursday would be too late as I need it to take with me when I go away that day. The parcel arrived today as promised and in time for when I needed it. Fantastic customer service. Will definitely use them again. Thank you GreatArt!!!

"Missing items and no response"

Second time that there are missing items from my order. I have been trying to contact them for more than a month already with no reply from them. Very disappointed.

Reply to great art comment:
No, I haven't received any reply from you. I have contacted you through your website and email. I have checked my spam folder and there isn't anything there. Also, If you saw my email, why didn't you send me my missing items already?

"BEWARE - Long deliveries - German warehouse"

BEWARE - Long deliveries
Although Great Art website may believe you are ordering from London - web site orders are dispatched from Germany and take a long time to arrive.
Their computer link to tracing parcels is also "broken"
Excellent products at a good price but you will wait for ages

"The site had items I couldn't find…"

The site had items I couldn't find elsewhere, ordering was easy. My order arrived perfectly packaged & on time so I'm very happy & will be ordering from them again.

"Excellent products and service"

Excellent products and service. My recent order took 2 weeks to arrive, which is normal (ever since Brexit the folks at Customs have been delaying foreign imports). Yes it is frustrating waiting for a brush or colour, but it is worth the wait. I will continue to use Great Art, especially when they have a sale on.
