I am so happy with all my interactions with Craftelier. The orders are always sent quickly and packaged well. The team are helpful and pleasant on any contacts. And their prices are very good. They also have a huge selection of products.

Good prices, availability and customer services issues

I placed several orders over the past few years because prices are good. However items are often on back-order which makes it tricky to order everything at once, even items that they are advertising are often on back-order, in particular their own brand. And lastly, customer service is not service-oriented. My last order had 2 products not fitting because the descriptions were wrong, and instead of checking themselves, they pushed it on me to prove it was wrong (and I did not absolutely want a refund/return, just wanted them to at least fix their product descriptions).

Hi L.B,

Thank you very much for your review. We have taken your comments into consideration.

Regarding the out-of-stock products, this is a problem we have been facing for several years. We are gradually improving and can now estimate more accurately the products that may run out of stock. Unfortunately, sometimes there are logistical issues that are beyond our control.

We have also taken note of the issue with our product listing.

Thank you again for your feedback. Have a great day.

I orderd my Vallejo paints on Friday evening and they arrived a week later; with a delicious love heart lolly included.
Spoke to a very helpful young lady on the phone called Andrea. Andrea is a credit to the company.
Will not hesitate to use again and recommend to my friends.

VAT Not Deducted for Non-EU Orders Despite Claims on Website

I am disappointed with my experience with Craftelier and feel compelled to share this for the benefit of other customers outside the EU. Craftelier advertises VAT exemption for non-EU orders, yet the final prices are identical to those for EU customers, where VAT is included. When I raised this discrepancy with Customer Service, their responses were vague and evasive, stating that VAT is removed but that prices vary depending on the country and website used. This explanation doesn’t align with the actual pricing experience, leaving me feeling misled.

Despite multiple attempts to seek clarity, the responses I received have been inconsistent and suggest a lack of a clear, transparent process for non-EU VAT deductions. For customers outside the EU, this lack of transparency can be frustrating and ultimately deceptive, making it difficult to make informed choices. Compared to other retailers who clearly outline VAT deductions, Craftelier’s approach falls short of honest and reliable service.

If you’re a non-EU customer considering Craftelier, I recommend looking into alternative retailers that prioritize transparency and customer satisfaction. Unfortunately, the vague responses and ghosting from Craftelier have left me with a poor impression of their commitment to clear and respectful communication.

Dear Craft For Joy,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand your disappointment regarding the VAT charges on your non-EU order.

We want to clarify that our pricing structure is influenced by various factors, including currency exchange rates, shipping costs, and local taxes, and this implies that prices may vary from one site to another, but as you can see on purchases to Swtizerland, the Tax is still zero.

We hope this explanation is helpful.

Thank you.

The custormer service is amazing

The custormer service is amazing. It was my first time ordering from them and I will keep ordering in the future. I ordered some wrong things on my order which i wanted removed and then wanted to add new things. They fixed it so fast and helped me all the way. The really nice thing is their response time. There was quite a few mails going back and forth and they answered so fast and got it all done in no time. They have my highest rekommandationer.

NOT TO BE TRUSTED

I fell into the hands of this company when ordering some LYRA small tools which used to have a solid reputation. That was in the days when they were manufactured in Germany, but unfortunately they are now made in China with a complete loss of quality. When a complaint was made to Craftelier, their staff tried to suggest that the goods had sustained damage in the post, which is wholly untrue.

THEIR REPLY changes nothing - they do not even deny setting up a phoney complaint of damage in transit.

I’m based in the Highlands of Scotland and have used Craftelier for some time. They have a huge range of products at very competitive prices. Their customer service, when required, is excellent. Delivery can be slow, due to distance, but that’s to be expected and it’s always worth the wait, arriving well packaged and in perfect condition. I always check out products on Craftelier.com before buying anywhere else and am rarely disappointed. Thanks.

Appalling customer service

Appalling customer service.

Placed an order which didn't arrive, and was returned to sender. They wanted me to pay an extra £12 to have the parcel sent again (even though origional postage was £5) Or if I wanted a refund I also had to pay the £12 'admin fee' very unhelpful. Had to get refunded through my credit card. Won't buy from this company again.

Hi Wendy,

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with your recent order.

After reviewing your case, we noticed that the courier did send the notifications regarding the delivery status. We understand that sometimes these notifications might be missed or not seen, and we are sorry this happened in your situation.

Regarding the additional £12 fee, this covers the costs associated with the parcel being returned to us and the administrative effort to resend it. We strive to keep our shipping and administrative costs as low as possible and transparent for all our customers.

Thank you for your feedback. We value all our customers and will use your experience to improve our services.
