GreatArt レビュー 

Agree with many of the previous reviews. Ordered without noticing the 7 - 10 WORKING day delivery timeline. On top of this it was delayed so took longer than two weeks.
Not only this, no information was provided on when it was dispatched and I needed to request the information multiple times via email.
This company is geniune it's just they haven't sorted out their logistics and so therefore makes no sense buying it from the UK.
Also, the tools have stickers that have been taped down so you need to spend hours picking it off and soaking with hot water.

I read the reviews before ordering so I only placed a small order. Pros: mind boggling selection, almost everything in stock, decent prices. I especially like the large format cardstock!! It was all packaged very well. Cons: it takes way longer than the estimated 7-10 working days, there was no tracking number (it comes from outside the UK?) I ordered Dec 29th and received Jan 21st. If you’re willing to wait, or if there’s consumables you know you always need and don’t need it ASAP, I think it’s worth it. I get peoples frustrations with the shipping times, but I don’t think it’s a total scam company. I do hope they will get faster shipping options!

So far this is not looking good. I gave them the benefit of doubt even after reading these reviews. I have placed a small order to see. Well 7-10 days. On the 10th day I called and they sent me the tracking and said it should be with me Thursday. That would be working day 12! Even after paying a high postage amount that most in most places would mean next day. But either way I though ok that's no problem it's 2 days over what they stated but that's ok. We'll the tracking still hasn't been updated and is still saying waiting to be received from supplier. Not looking g good. Happy to update this if I receive the order as promised this week.

UPDATE: item arrived well packaged and good condition on the 15th day. The company do seem to be aware of the problem and have ensured me they are working on changing delivery company and having a UK based warehouse. If this happens I think they will be much better. Will I used again possibly but not for anything urgent or that I can get elsewhere.

Terrible service.

7-10 working days to deliver, this is day 10 only to be told it’s now with the courier and should be with me in 48 hours even after being told it was dispatched on 20/10/22

If I could give 0 stars then I would.

Great customer services, went above and beyond to help with a technical issue I was having.

I delayed my delivery until after my holiday. When I returned I tried to contact them to say I had returned only to find their phones out of action (been over a week) and my delivery archived. I did what they said and e mailed them (twice) and still no response. What is going on?
I have just spoken to them (Tuesday 25th October) on a different number and they have re-ordered the items for me. Still got a fifteen day delay but at least the items are on their way.

I would order from them again. Thank you so much for the quality products. I ordered a watercolour brush set. I am in love with them. I am new at doing watercolour painting, so next up will be some more professional paints.

I've purchased quite a lot of items from GreatArt. The prices are competitive. My biggest gripe why I've given a two star is the delivery times. My God this thing takes forever to arrive. This will be my last purchase from this website. I'll be using Jackson's or SAA or Ken Bromley next time and save the hassle.

Expensive £6.95 delivery for two small erasers which then get despatched on snail pace 5-10 working day delivery service. Not very impressed! I don't mind paying this much in postage (even though it is excessive for two small erasers) if it arrives in a couple of days but we are now on working day 13, almost 3 weeks after placing the order, and still no sign of the parcel. Not a great experience and my first and last time shopping with this company :-/

Really high shipping rate and yet orders take ages to arrive. I have been waiting 12 days so far for my order. Their site ‘tracking’ option does not work and their customer service is slow and unsympathetic. Not impressed at all.

Placed an order, after 10 days made contact as nothing received. Was told that 10 working days is the estimated time frame and also was subsequently subjected to a verbal attitude and lack of professional response when I enquire as to why such a slow service, especially after I asked why it is not made apparent at time of ordering that orders are dispatched from mainland Europe.
When asked to speak to a senior manager was denied as the "customer service " person stated he was the only one in.

When delivery is now attempted it is going to be refused and charge back made from bank. This company obviously needs reminders about distance selling laws and governance about transparency laws. The FAQ are about questions if the customer has no questions then they are not going to look there to find out about the delay of service.

Also worth noting is that the tracking service via the greatart.co.uk website doesn't work and only servers to open new tabs to order history.

Buyers be warned, take the advice from most of the reviews this company has buy elsewhere

Delivery was later than expected (it took 2-3weeks).

but when I received damaged items, they sent me replacement after two weeks.

Customer service was no problem (They responded for my email quickly.

Terrible company. I ordered two frames and only one arrived after more than 3 weeks. I have been in touch several times and they seem to be ignoring me. Down £69.99 😡😡😡

When I found the delivery was longer than I anticipated, I called the company and they were so obliging and helpful in being able to source and expedite the items to me. They worked around a few obstacles and came up trumps! Thank you and great customer service for me!

I would usually reserve a 1 star review for a company that is a scam. GreatArt is not a scam. It exists, and my art supplies (which were not available elsewhere) did indeed arrive. They took longer than expected, which was already longer than we are used to in the age of Amazon Prime. I believe GreatArt would be greatly served by explaining on their order form that they are a small operation with limited resources and being more transparent about how long you should expect to wait.

If you're happy to wait a month for delivery then go ahead and give them a try; otherwise, take a little look at their reviews here and on Google and consider spending your money elsewhere. Sorry to have to give such a poor rating (it would be less than one star if possible), but this company is best avoided.

Responsive to customer service emails, but supply erroneous tracking information; they seem to sit on orders for weeks before despatch. Seriously need to up their game if they wish to trade online.

Eventually received my order and had the postage charges refunded, which is appreciated.

Really bad service - no contact or tracking provided and the customer service is unhelpful. 3 months and order has still not arrived.I ordered a parcel back in February and still waiting for it to arrive (it's now May!) I have contacted them 3 times to resend the parcel and each time nothing arrives and no contact from them. On my most recent contact with them they have denied any correspondence from me. Obviously I can prove them to be wrong and sent all the dated emails they deny. Really disappointing and unaccountable behaviour.

Really poor service. Delayed delivery of a canvas, with no notification. This was for a commission which has now been made very difficult.
I won’t be using great art again, or recommending them.

Took well over the estimated delivery time, no tracking number until the day before delivery, called multiple times to enquire about it with no answer from them. After I did get through I was told someone would call me, they did not until I involved PayPal. I ordered from a different company which is in France a whole week after I ordered from Greatart and it arrived first! Total joke and will never buy from them again

Very disappointed that I have not received my delivery of paints which were ordered 24th February 2022. It is now 21st March 2022.
