Essentially - they LIE 100% of the time. Order place mid July 2023. I have repeatedly asked, via phone and email, if the item we ordered is in stock. ALL of the customer service agent assured me (more than five times) that it was. Both phone calls made within 10 days of each other, resulted in the man who answered the phone, telling me it absolutely will ship 'within the week'. And that they will send tracking information 'in the next day or two'. THEY ALL LIED! I really think they couldn't be bothered to actually verify with their supplier. It's disgusting behavior and the disrespect has gained nothing more than a one time purchase of $100 versus years of a business relationship. Good luck to them with that.

Great prices! You just can’t beat the prices at Van Dyke’s! I used to always double and triple check everywhere else, but after so many times of Van Dyke’s being the most bang for my buck, eventually I just started going straight to them.

Antique Chest Parts I was restoring an antique chest that has been in the family for a couple of generations at least. I ordered some hinges and latches that I thought would work but when I received them I just didn't like the way they matched my chest. I ordered a second set and sadly they weren't any better of match, my issue not theirs. Both orders shipped promptly and were exactly as I expected. They just didn't work with my situation. I contacted customer service about a return and they responded within hours with a full refund and offered to send a return shipping label. I was very impressed with their no nonsense return acceptance. I would definitely use them again for any future purchases.

In life you get what you pay for When you consider the quality of the products that Van Dyke sells it more than justifies the cost of some of their items. I get that not everyone can appreciate purchasing quality goods, but then at least don’t complain about the prices? It’s not expensive, it’s just not a price you’re willing to pay. There’s a difference, and I personally think America’s economy and society as a whole would be doing a lot better if more people understood this.

Ordered turned wood corner moulding… Ordered turned wood corner moulding guards for my hallway walls. They were of nice quality but one was warped and the other had a slice missing from the top of it's finial. I gave a call to customer service and they promptly sent two replacements with no problem. Corner guards have created a fine finish accent and protect the corners in the winding hallway from nick's and smudges.
