Good not great

There was a significant delay in delivery and the customer service was okay. I’ve had better service from Saatchi before. The delay was due to the artist, not the company.
The painting I received was great. Packaged well. Beautiful piece of art. Title was Koi Pond.

Certainly an overall good experience

Certainly an overall good experience. I very much appreciated the help of my advisor. Good advise and timely feedback to my questions.
The pricing of the product through the purchase process was confusing. The price, offer price and confirmation price was quoted in GBP. The final cost price (incl shipping & taxes) was quoted in USD incurring additional foreign exchange charges. Be proactive in reminding clients so that appropriate payment vehicles can be used to offset these unnecessary charges.

Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope you enjoy your artwork!

A great experience with Saatchi Art

I’ve had a very positive experience with Saatchi Art. The online shop is well organised and easy to navigate, and the customer service has been excellent—from handling my enquiry about a discount to helping with customs formalities.

The processes are efficient and automated, yet the service still feels very personal. Communication about shipping, delivery dates and timelines has been clear and helpful throughout. Highly recommended.

Pleased with the Purchase

I viewed the item from a printed catalog I'd received and went online to review it and confirm pricing and shipping. I was pleased that online information confirmed what I wanted and placed the order. Shipping was faster than expected and item arrived packed carefully in a shipping tube.

I had a great experience with…

I had a great experience with Saatchiart. The artwork matched the photograph; delivery was efficient, and customer service was responsive.

I gave 4 stars instead of 5 only because I would have appreciated it if they had listed the tariffs in the price. I purchased a $650 item from Canada, and I didn't realize it would have 50% tariffs for the US. I saw it before paying, but by then I had already decided to buy.

Other than this, it is a very reliable art seller!

We also appreciate your feedback regarding import tariffs. Customs duties and tariffs are determined by the destination country and can vary depending on the artwork and its country of origin. While these charges are presented during the checkout process before an order is completed, we understand that they can be an unexpected additional cost and appreciate you highlighting the importance of making this information as clear as possible.

Thank you again for choosing Saatchi Art and for taking the time to share your feedback!

Perfect place to buy great art!

I purchased Respiro dell’Infinito by Andrea Serra through Saatchi Art, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The sculpture was shipped from Italy in a meticulously packed crate, ensuring that this beautiful work of art arrived safely and in perfect condition. I highly recommend Saatchi Art for their professionalism, reliability, and exceptional care.

Customs Can Be Challenging

The process of buying the art was easy, and Saatchi updated us often regarding the time of the delivery. The original oil on canvas that we received is beautiful and being framed now. It would have been helpful if Saatchi Art had included a commercial invoice (PDF) with the sale. (Customs would not accept an e-mail receipt) . Also, we wish Saatchi had told us that the shipper might require us to create a power of attorney for them to act on our behalf with customs. The back-and-forth with customs took 9 days, and the shipper was threatening to send the painting back to Azerbaijan the next day. It was very stressful. Thankfully, someone at Saatchi read my e-mail quickly and sent the required invoice immediately.

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear that you found the purchasing process easy, that our delivery updates were helpful, and most importantly, that you’re enjoying your new artwork.

We’re sorry, however, that the customs process became so stressful and that you were not given clearer guidance around the documentation and potential power of attorney requirement. We understand how frustrating it must have been to have the shipment at risk of being returned after such a long back-and-forth. We’re pleased our team was able to respond quickly and provide the required invoice, and we appreciate you highlighting where we can improve the experience for future international deliveries.

Wonderful experience. Huge selection. Great service.

I ordered one original oil and 3 prints. It was easy to order. Everything was delivered quickly. The original oil will have to be re-stretched as it is extremely loose and needs a better wooden backing, but that is the fault of the Artist and not Saatchi. I am so pleased that I have already ordered another original piece for a friend in England. I have no doubt that she will love it. I am so glad that I discovered Saatchi Art!
