Shipping Costs
We examine all returns on a case-by-case basis in order to determine who is responsible for paying all costs (shipping and customs) required to deliver the artwork back to the artist. Generally, if we determine that the artwork was accurately described on our site (in terms of size, materials used, weight, etc.) and the collector is returning it as a result of buyer’s remorse, then the buyer is held responsible for return costs.
If we conclude that the artist misrepresented the work (either in the photograph or in the description), failed to disclose important information about the work, or if the artwork was damaged as a result of poor packaging, the collector will not be responsible for shipping and customs costs.
FREE SHIPPING FOR ORIGINALS & LIMITED EDITIONS
Shipping times range from 3-9 business days. Tracking information will be emailed to you as soon as available. Shipping for originals and limited editions is free within the continental United States.
