This is Snik's sales thread. I understand people have had bad dealings with these guys, but start a bad dealings with thread. I'm sure many people have had good experiences with them I've not been put off because Snik will make sure all customers are happy.

[spencerlee]

OK, I don't want to be in a minority, but I have ordered 3 things from Laminate. All have taken their time, and there has been little or no communication...but they all arrived, and safely. I am not someone who waits by the postbox when I have ordered something, so may be in a minority. I accept they could be better at communicating, but I would order again if I wanted something.

[soulseeker]

Yep - same here, re Laminate. sadly. Emails ignored, purchases turning up months late with no postage notification. Vat amounts suddenly appearing on PayPal orders just before clicking the pay button ! Customer service zilch - a text book example of how to ruin a really promising business. Having said that, the products once I have actually received them have been excellent quality. Re the Snik release, plus a few others clearly marked as only Ava till 18th July and sales till then determining edition size - these are still clearly showing as available to purchase. This is plain wrong !!
And there was me thinking it was now 21 st July !

[sohohoho]

22nd July and still available. Typical.

[Wenters]

22nd July and still nothing from an order placed in early December 2012. Typical.

[student42]

22nd July and this "timed" edition that ends July 18th is still available for purchase.

You still want to take these guys at their word?

In their defense, they did not specify the year. July 18th 2014?

[11]

So, ordered the Faile back in Dec \ Jan timeframe - chased again last week for about the 6th time (as threads like this remind me that Laminate still haven't come through)

Standard pish....."Takes a lot of time in producing good quality, have to be sent to artists blah blah blah......"

All bollocks - If Faile can produce a 150 series print, arrange a lottery, send out purchase links, process orders, package and dispatch them with people actually receiving the print even before the last prints of a massively oversubscribed release have even sold out (ALL IN THE SPACE OF A WEEK); well doesn't that just make a complete mockery of everything laminate have said

snik - If Laminate take the same approach and 3-4 or even 5 months down the line people are again crying out about lack of delivery, this time of your print, will you take ownership and ensure customer satisfaction?

What was the last thing to be delivered - has anyone had anything since the Hush \ Keyes editions?

[Art Fan 2011]

Ive just had the Handiedan print set turn up, really pleased with item, but as always a stupidly long wait and very little contact. Sadly this poor service reflects badly on the artists, who keep falling for the promises by Laminate. Had Snik used anyone else Id of gone for this print, but passed, il wait for his next release where i know the item and service will be spot on!

[snik]

hey guys, thanks for the messages and replies. It is great to know you guys enjoy the work we produce, but also very worrying to hear all the horror stories of prints not turning up.

As it stands, the size of the edition was based on orders up until the 18th, after that the other orders become part of an open edition (a strange way to work, and not what i was told from the start). I have had many email conversations with john, and stressed how important it is this goes well, and if it doesnt then i will make sure that people are not left screwed over. It is very important to me that people get what they pay for, and that it is a swift delivery. I will keep all of you updated with any news i get, and im sorry laminate have treated you this way.

Regards

snik

Thanks for the update Mr Snik, nice of you to keep the buyers of your work in the loop! Cant say I really understand the whole limited/open edition situation, and all sounds a bit odd to me, and was certainly not made clear upon release, and sounds like you were not made fully aware of the score, with Laminate involved I cant say im surprised! I hope all who purchased this one dont get let down, but it would be a first if it does arrive promptly! Looking forward to the next Snik print either way, serious talent

[snik]

This is just another proof that Laminate's way of doing business is totally crap. If they don't mention details like this with the artist they're working with, no surprise they mess up with customers and orders.

[delamainarts]

Here at DeLaMainArts we are very happy to announce that we will be releasing the new screen print from UK artists SNIK. The prints will go live at www.delamainarts.com on Friday 2nd August at 3pm GMT.

Hopefully those of you that were put off a print by me due to it being released with Laminate won't have the issue on this. Here is some detail and process shots for you:

Think I'll go for this one , its a beauty.

And you're right snik, many people are put off buying from Laminate but have no reason to distrust Delamainarts so I think this'll be a very popular release.

[tommyb]

Very stunning print, will be looking to pick this one up, really liked the Laminate prints also but far too many bad things said about Laminate for me to buy them. Sure sinks works would be snapped up in no time released else where.

[delamainarts]

Thanks for the feedback guys, all prints are signed, stamped and ready. We send all our prints out in 4mm thick 6 inch diameter tubes. We are aiming for 2 week delivery time from the launch on the 2nd.
