I placed my first order with them this month. I ordered on the 17th and they shipped on the 23rd. A couple items I ordered were on backorder which is why it didn't ship immediately. I haven't received the order yet, but I'm on the other side of the country, so it may be a few days.

Thanks for the info. I ordered tonight and I'm hoping that I get it late next week. Both items I ordered were in stock.

I've placed several orders with Dick Blick. It seems like it usually takes about 5-7 business days to receive my order.

I got a Dick Blick gift certificate for christmas, so I thought I would check out their brick and mortar store when I was visiting in Columbus, Oh. Wow! Awesome store and over the top prices!!! I asked a sales person why there was so much difference in the prices between online vs. store. She didn't know.
I suppose it illustrates just how much over head a store has and how it is reflected in prices.

Anyway, I got to look at what I wanted to order and then went home and ordered it online. Even factoring in shipping costs I still saved alot of money by ordering online. Actually I do about 90% of my shopping online. Stores are too much of a hassle trying to find the best deal, hoping to get a "coupon" and then driving there only to find they are out of stock.

Sorry, didn't mean to hi-jack your OP.

I LOVE Dick Blick. It does take 5-7 business days, but I've never had a problem with them. Their CS is great! I can spend some serious money in that store. All kinds of paper and ink mediums!!!!!!

I've ordered from them a number of times and they always ship very quickly. I am in Canada so I expect my orders to take a full two weeks to get here but my Dick Blick orders usually arrive quicker than others from the US.

I've bought from them a number of times and have always been super pleased. Use somewhere about 5 days for shipping.

I've had great experience with DB.

Also, if you sign up for an ebates account, you can earn yourself an % of what you spend online as a rebate. I use ebates all the time. If you refer your friends, you can earn a bonus.

check them out:
www.ebates.com

I'm not looking to gain from this, hence I haven't included my e-bates info to get a referral bonus. It's just and FYI to be helpful (since who doesn't like to save a little $$)?
