PURCHASING & SHIPPING
I want you to be happy with your new art. If you have any questions please contact me in advance at- debbielee14@outlook.com
Every care has been taken to show the artwork as accurately as possible with regard to size and colour. The image you see online may show a difference due to slight variation between browsers, devices and screen settings. Any variation between the image represented and the actual artwork is not deemed a fault and slight inconsistencies will not be a valid reason for return.
ORDERING
How is my payment handled?
Payments are taken through Stripe in British Pounds Sterling. You can pay with your regular debit or credit card or Apple Pay. We do not store any of your debit/credit card details.
Purchasing with a deposit
If you would like to purchase an original picture over £300 you are welcome to purchase in stages. A 50% non-refundable deposit is payable to hold your picture. The balance can be paid the following month or in 2 monthly payments of 25% each. Please contact me if you are interested in arranging this. The picture will not be sent until full payment is received.
This is not a credit scheme, but an arrangement on trust, at no extra cost to you. Usual shipping costs and return policy will apply.
SHIPPING
I have placed my order, how soon will I receive my picture?
Original pictures will be packed and shipped within 5 working days. Within the UK pieces are sent by either Royal Mail or Parcel Force depending on size and weight. Most UK deliveries arrive within 2 days from time of shipping. Please allow 7 working days in total.
All work is framed in box frames where the glass is set 2cm away for the work itself. Because of this larger work is too fragile to send framed as a finished item. You can still purchase this work as either unframed or with the frame deconstructed so that the glass is an inner layer for safety when sending. If you choose to have the frame, clear details will be sent with the work for you to follow to reconstruct the frame yourself. If you choose the work unframed there will be a discount, Work will either be listed therefore as framed or unframed for ease of purchase.
As a sole trader this may however be dependant on personal holidays. Where possible you will be informed if there is likely to be a delay.
Is shipping included?
Yes, most artwork has a free shipping cost included within the UK. Overseas buyers are asked to contact me directly to arrange an additional shipping cost.
Note: At the current time shipping costs are varying significantly due to Covid-19 restrictions, especially on air freight. If the actual cost of shipping is significantly more than quoted I reserve the right to discuss this with you and to refuse the sale.
Can you ship internationally?
Yes, I can ship to most countries, although it will take longer to arrive depending on your location. There will however be an additional shipping fee for overseas and this will require you to contact me directly via my contact form so that the fee/ payment can be agreed and arranged. As overseas shipping can be substantially more expensive it would be advised that work for overseas customers be sent unframed to lower the weight.
Overseas shipments (outside the UK) may be subject to import duties and taxes according to the laws of the destination country. Any additional charges are at the customer’s expense. We have no control over these charges and accept no responsibility for additional charges.
Shipping costs, when they are relevant, contribute towards packing supplies, labour and transit fees.
RETURNS
What if my picture arrives and I don’t like it?
I want you to be fully happy with your new artwork so I offer a return agreement.
If a picture is not as you expect, you have 14 days to contact me by email and request a refund. Please do this via - debbielee14@outlook.com. Once a return has been agreed, you are responsible for packing and arranging return delivery using the same service it was sent to you, as well as the payment for this. Once the piece has been safely returned I will refund your payment within 14 days.
What if my picture arrives damaged?
All work is carefully packed and wrapped. If you receive a work that has been damaged in transit, please contact me within 7 days and if possible keep a photograph.
What about Overseas Returns?
At this time I am unable to offer a refund or return on any product(s) sent outside of the UK.
