SHIPPING:

I HAVE PLACED MY ORDER. WHEN WILL I RECEIVE THE ARTWORK?

Orders will be processed, carefully packed and shipped within 5 working days. UK orders are sent via Royal Mail or Parcel Force Worldwide depending on size and weight. All shipments are tracked and require a signature on delivery. Most UK deliveries arrive within 2 days from time of shipping. If you need your order by a specific date, please contact me to ensure it can be delivered to you in time. There may be an extra charge for rush deliveries according to your requirements.

For International shipping, please refer to the paragraph below on shipping Internationally. Please note that following Brexit, the changes for International shipping services between UK and EU continues to be an ever changing situation which is challenging for both seller and purchaser.

WHAT ABOUT DELIVERY OF LARGE ARTWORKS?

For large and high value artworks it vital that these items are delivered safely. These artworks will have individual shipping requirements. This will be noted in the Shipping details with each product listing. Please checkout as usual and the estimated shipping charge will be added to your order. I will contact you via email to discuss specialist shipping to confirm how the artwork will be delivered. According to the delivery service chosen, actual costs may vary to the estimated cost shown.

CAN YOU SHIP INTERNATIONALLY?

Yes, Sue Rapley Art can ship to most countries. For international shipping outside of Europe, US and Australia, please send me an email with your details and the piece you would like to purchase for an individual quote. I will endeavour to provide you with the best and most cost effective shipping service to your location.

Sue Rapley Art is delighted to offer International shipping (outside of the UK), however at this time, all shipping quotes are based on Delivery Duty Unpaid (DDU).  This will not include customs charges applied by the recipient’s destination country, according to the laws set by the relevant authorities in the destination country. They will contact the recipient regarding any import duties that may need to be paid to release the parcel.

We are happy to transfer bookings free of charge on the first occasion. Any further changes required would incur a small admin fee.
