Returns Policy

What to do if you are not satisfied with the products we send you.

cancelling an order
  1. Should you wish to cancel an order then you can do so prior to despatch. Please call us as soon as possible on 01273 897355 or email us at sales@thefineartcompany.co.uk with your name and what you ordered. No order number is required.
faulty products
  1. In the unlikely instance that you receive a product from us that is faulty please telephone us on 01273 897355, explain the problem, and we will advise you about what action to take.
unframed Images
  1. We give you a full 7 working days from delivery (ignore weekends and public holidays) to make your mind up about an unframed item. If you are not satisfied and want to return your order you must let us know, by fax, letter or email within this period.
  2. Unless items are faulty or damaged in transit, you are responsible for the cost of returning any unwanted items. When you contact us we will discuss with you the most cost effective method of returning the goods.
  3. If you ask us to arrange for the collection of any items for return we will do so. Whilst awaiting collection you must take good care of the items so that when they are returned to us they are in a re-saleable condition.
  4. You will receive a full refund, less any collection costs incurred by us provided items are returned in good condition.
  5. When sending goods back to us please re-use the original packaging and enclose your invoice.
  6. Goods must be available for collection or returned to us within 21 days.
framed images and commissioned artworks
  1. Frames for prints, serigraphs and posters are made to your specification, and because each item is often unique it is unlikely we will find another customer wanting exactly the same print, frame, colour, mount and glazing combination. For this reason we regret that we cannot accept the return of more than one framed item, again you have 7 working days from delivery to make up your mind about the item and the above terms apply. You will receive a full refund provided the item is returned in good condition.
  2. If you are thinking about ordering several pictures we suggest that you initially order one picture to approve the quality, before committing yourself to multiple items (although we are sure you will be delighted with the quality of our framing when you see it).
  3. Bespoke prints, canvases and other products created for corporate projects and other customers are non-refundable, as they have been created to unique specifications.
refunds on non-UK orders
  1. We regret that shipping costs incurred by us on non UK orders will not be refunded in the event of a return (unless the product arrives damaged). Your order will be refunded minus exact shipping costs.

What to do if your delivery arrives damaged

  1. Please check your delivery carefully when it arrives. If the packaging is damaged and it is clear that the contents have also been damaged please refuse to accept delivery, then telephone us on 01273 897355 and let us know and we will dispatch a replacement.
package not so obviously damaged
  1. If the packaging is undamaged, please open the parcel and examine the contents, if you discover an item has been damaged in transit please let us know within 3 working days of delivery by telephoning us on 01273 897355. We will forward a replacement to you as quickly as possible. We regret that it will not be possible to give you a refund or replacement if damage is reported after 3 working days of the delivery.
