GBBlick approved face coverings I was browsing for acetate tracing film wearing a PA state approved face shield. The store representative informed me that it was not acceptable even though the Pennsylvania CDC web site states that it is acceptable. He stated that only a cloth mask is store policy and told me I HAD to wear a cloth type covering. Which indicates that Blick does NOT follow PA CDC guidelines. He then walked away and did not bother to ask how he could assist me. I left the store and shopped for my art supplies somewhere else.

GBYes, there are delays during pandemic times! Dick Blick carries a huge range of brands. I only get to visit the Kansas City store when I travel and set aside an hour to go up and down each aisle and look at everything. So fun! Most of the time I order online. For the reviewers saying shipping is slow or merch is not complete during the pandemic, please raise your awareness!!! DB relies on manufacturers to have staff AND materials available to create the products that DB sells and you want to buy. In pandemic times, manufacturers are not getting what they need, so you have to be patient!

GBThey ship via the slowest possible… They ship via the slowest possible method, despite charging for shipping. Their shipping page makes it look like they ship via FedEx Home. Nope, SmartPost which is absolutely the worst method. The likelihood of a package being lost or delayed for weeks is very high. Don’t order any that you actually need from here.

GBPrompt service and no shipping fees… Prompt service and no shipping fees made me so happy, as painting paper weighs a lot! When our local art shop closed this year, I was not sure how I was going to get the paper needed to supply an elementary school without paying exorbitant shipping costs. Thanks Blick. Some boxes slightly squished which is a carrier issue, but maybe the box cardboard could be a bit thicker.

GBEasy ordering. Great prices. Everything went smoothly as far as ordering, pricing was excellent, quick delivery. My only negative would be that one of the boxes of paints I ordered was crushed when it arrived. Product was fine, but box useless for storing paint tubes.
