Blaine's Art scams their customers left and right with overpriced art supplies that can often be…read morefound for much lower prices at better art stores like Blick's, Jackson's, and even Ebay. What is Amanda thinking by charging her customers an outrageous $400 for a set of color pencils that can be bought for $200 or less on Ebay and Amazon? Customer service is also pretty crappy here, since I was always treated like an "outsider artist" instead of the professional that I've been for years. Amanda is also a classist bigot who snubs customers that she feels are not bourgeoisie enough for her snobbish standards, which makes her no better than a common racist. Anyway, if you want the best art supplies for decent prices? Then I highly recommend Blick's, Jackson's, Ebay, or even Amazon over Amanda's overpriced inferior establishment. If you want your art displayed on the wall? I also recommend you display anywhere but at Blaine's, because no serious art buyer will ever see it at Blaine's and it will be displayed next to mediocre garbage art that not even a mother would display on a refrigerator door. Do you really want your $500 oil paintings to be seen next to refrigerator marker art that no one would even pay $10 for? I don't think so~

I really like dealing locally whenever possible and luckily Arctic Office makes this easy! If you…read moreare setting up a business account I recommend calling Arctic Office Products for your office supply needs. They are super helpful and the best part is their quality of customer service. Ben, my account manager, comes by my office once a month to chat in person, drop off his "pen of the month" and let me know what special deals they are running. Last month I ordered the wrong ink cartridges for our office printer. He said no problem, picked them up from the office and is crediting our account. Their prices are cheaper than retail prices at Office Max or Office Depot, which is always good! They have free delivery no matter how much or how little you order. The only reason I'm not giving them 5 stars is because they don't always have what I need in stock and I have to wait for it to be delivered. I ran out of said ink toner and the kind that I do need Arctic Office doesn't carry so it was going to be 7 - 10 days delivery forcing me to run to Office Max to get the ink that I need until then.

No pressure sales associates that are there to answer questions but also give you the time and space you need to linger and discuss pieces and options. They too offer not only furniture but decor as well. I'm sure their style isn't for everyone, however we found many decor items and furniture pieces that were beautiful!

Customer service ends after they get their payment!
