Hidden costs

I have received the order. All relatively fine. However I have received a bill for import tax. At NO point was there anything that advised me I would have to pay this. I have emailed them twice to ask about it and just been ignored. This is really disappointing as it was ALLOT of money to begin with. I DO NOT recommend purchasing due to the hidden fees. Feel free to refund me the £40.16. Terrible service when buying from a UK website.

Thank you for your review.
Roller blinds have a production time of 10-12 working days from the start of production (you will receive an email about this).
We apologize if there is a delay in the production of your roller blind, we do everything we can to ship all orders on time.

Confusing ordering process and useless product

I am very disappointed with the ordering process. My curtains came to me in a wrong size. The Nikkei-Art website ordering process is not clear. I wanted to order a pair of curtains of a certain size but received two curtains of half of the required size. They simply divided the submitted length into two halves which I didn't expect and didn't realise in time. Curtains turned out absolutely useless. In their message Nikkei-Art insisted that they were right and it should be clear that curtains which are " 2 equal parts- Size : 80cm x 180cm" are in fact size 40 cm x 180 cm each.

Thank you for your feedback.
When you order curtains online you need to enter the dimensions yourself, we make everything specifically to the customer's measurements.
Once you have entered the size you can continue with the options online. Namely which version you want, rings or a single pleat. In how many parts you want this curtain, all as one part or in 2 or 3 equal parts.
Then you can start ordering.

Between these options, you cannot order the curtain more than once, you can only do so in the shopping basket or via the order screen by adding the order a second time.

In the example, when changing the options you can also see the adjustment immediately. If you indicate in 1 part, this is how you see it, if you change later to 2 equal parts, you see that the original photo is divided into 2 equal parts.

So unfortunately this is not a production error, the order was made as ordered. However, we definitely take the feedback to heart and will take it into account to further optimise our website.

Nikkel Art uses stolen art and photos

Nikkel Art uses stolen intellectual property in the form of photographs, vector graphics and drawings.

The images they offer as prints are taken from stock websites such as Adobe Stock, Shutter Stock and more.

Do not buy anything from them. If you wish to support the original artist you can do a reverse image search using Google Lens.

This will show you where to buy the original from and even who the original artist is.

Use this Company at your own risk

Due to an administrative error by Nikkel-Art, they sent incorrect invoice information to Fedex. This resulted in an unexpected invoice from Fedex with threats of court action if I did not pay.
After many emails I agreed to pay the Fedex invoice and Nikkel-Art agreed to refund the overcharge to me of £53.83.
This was agreed on 27th June, and I paid the Fedex invoice to stop any further action by Fedex.
No payment or refund has happened.
I chased it up on 11th July and was promised action by their accounts team
Sent another e-mail on 4th September and once again was promised payment
It's now 24th September with still no payment, no follow up in fact absolutely nothing.
If I knew the name of the CEO, then that would be my next e-mail. This review is the first of many negative reviews I will publish on different platforms
Use this company at your own risk

update:12 Jan 2024, Payment received on 7th November 2023 plus an apology today.

Dear B, we are sorry this took so long for us to clear with Fedex. In the end we did clear everything with them and we refunded you the payment. Please accept our apologies in this matter.

Deceptive with information about Tax, small print making overall cost is very high.

The cost is too high. There is a small print stating about extra tax, very deceptive. You may have an extra bill after the purchase. Only if you are prepared to pay extra approximately 25% extra to buy fromNikkel Art if you're from the UK. I had to pay 26% extra.

Hi,
Thank you for your feedback.
It's true that when we whip items to the UK, the amount is important to know if you pay the VAT on our bill or if you receive a bill from the shipping company.
We inform you about this before you place an order on our website. I will put the information here again:
For orders below £ 135, VAT will be charged at checkout.
For orders above £ 135, VAT will not be charged at checkout but
by the courier at customs for which you will receive a separate invoice.

Note that the courier might charge an additional administrative fee.

Not buying from this company again

Not buying from this company again! Expected delivery 8 Dec 2022 - having placed the order early Nov - no update from the company to say delivery stuck with Fed Ex awaiting customs clearance. UK customer service doesn’t answer the number provided. Fed Ex just say it’s at Customs. No end in sight of when I will receive order. Very poor. If I knew the lack of clarity with delivery information I wouldn’t haven’t ordered from Nikkle Art.

We are sorry to read that your order is taking longer to ship than usual. We really have no control over this. We ship the package but it must go through customs for you when it enters the country. Unfortunately, how long it takes for customs to release the package is beyond our control. The transport companies and customs are very busy during this period, we apologize for this.

Failed…

A photo I submitted could not be printed properly into a poster, the poster became too dark. I received the following answer from Nikkel-Art.nl: production-technically everything was fine, so sorry. Nowhere on Nikkel-Art.nl's website does it say that your own photo cannot be printed properly into a poster.

Thank you for your feedback, but we didn't say we couldn't print your picture as a poster. It all depends on the quality of the picture and the size you want it on. We only print the original picture, the original colours. Sometimes colours can seem different because of the settings on your screen (every screen has different settings, so on every screen you see the colours slightly different). We are sorry if this wasn't the way you thought it would be.

I paid for a kitchen splash back from Nikkel art in August 2020. I have heard nothing from the company for over eight months. I have made numerous attempts to contact to no avail. I have been trying to ask for a refund with no response.
I have no choice but report them through Citizen's Advice Bureau.
Total waste of my time!

Do NOT buy any thing from the company unless you are totally aware that you will get a invoice for importing their product into GB in my case £56.99. In my order I had made it clear that if there were any other charges above the stated price I did not wish to proceed. I will NEVER buy anything from the company again.

DO NOT USE!! Unforeseen Charges

Do not use if you are in the UK! Our delivery arrived in an acceptable time and is of fair quality. However, shortly after receiving our goods we were contacted requesting an extra £56 (on an order of £200) for import fees. With a .co.uk domain and free delivery, this was unexpected. Dig a little deeper and it turns out they are not Uk based!
Given this unexpected cost, there are lower-cost options from UK suppliers. Will shop around more in the future to avoid these obscene fees!

Dear Ronny,
Thank you for giving us an feedback about your experience with our product and service.
The picture you have chosen contains an fly on the ear of the deer. This is an detail in the original picture. We do not remove details from original pictures that for some could be important and for some could be disturbing. We had no information about an change that had to be made in the details. Therefor we printed this original picture as it is coming from Adobe Stock.
We are very sorry that you did not liked the picture you have chosen. Because we do stand for an 100% customer statisfaction we give the opportunity to chose an other picture for your canvas.
I will contact you per mail about this matter asap.

Greetings Team Nikkel Art.

Satisfaction not guaranteed

The seller promises a 100% satisfaction guarantee but has unfortunately fallen far short of delivering this for me. I placed my order (a kitchen splashback) on 7 December for delivery by 4 January. The order was delayed by 2 weeks (entirely down to the company and not delays caused by Brexit) and when it arrived I was hit with a bill for £63 import vat as it has come from Europe, which was not clear when I made my purchase as it has a “.co.uk” domain name

Then there's the quality of the printing, which I am also not impressed with. The detail is indistinct so while it looks ok from 12 foot back it looks fairly naff up close. I contacted the company to express my dissatisfaction but they just tell me they think it looks good and that you're bound to lose detail on larger panels. If this was the case they should have made it clear when I made my purchase, as other companies do. The image was from the company's website (it isn’t something I uploaded so I had no control over file size or resolution) and there was no suggestion the detail would not be sharp due to the size (which was well within the maximum I could specify for the image). Responses from the company were dismissive and they haven’t offered even a partial refund as a gesture of goodwill

Overall I’ve waited too long for an item which doesn’t meet my expectations, I’ve paid an extra £63 to receive it which is a considerable amount on top of the cost of the item and the “100% satisfaction guarantee” counts for absolutely nothing. I’d report to trading standards if the company was based in the UK but as it is apparently based in the EU I doubt they can do anything.

I won’t be ordering from this company again

First of all, thank you for taking the time to write the review.
The fact that your order took a bit longer has everything to do with the holidays for Christmas. I'm sorry.
