i've been waiting forever for this black chandelier and it's finally available in the US - before just in HD canada. it's sadly out of stock, but the red one is available. they're at a great price of just $149 and have a couple other pretty sweet designs.

has anyone purchased a crystal chandelier from Great Chandeliers or Gallery 84 (which seems to be the same company)? I have read so many complaints about them online and have been totally discouraged. is it true that the pictures don't match the actual products and that their customer service is awful? any words of wisdom will be greatly appreciated.....

I purchased the Maria Theresa model in silver for my guest bathroom and it looks like it cost 10xs more than what I paid for it. Considering the upscale look and low price, I didn't mind hanging the crystals myself. Greatchandeliers was easy to work with it and my chandelier was delivered in a timely manner not to mention carefully packaged. Good source for inexpensive lighting.

I bought a chandelier from them years ago. I didn't have any problems. I might even have to look into getting a new one now that there are so many great new options.

They have 1 or 2 that are okay... but 98% of their stuff is just Trump-Taj-Mahal tacky. I can't help but think of Scarlett Johansen saying "look at dis one... and dat one... and dis one..."

That's amazing!! The prices are totally affordable! Thanks for the tip.

I love the red one, maybe now I can stop bugging my husband over wanting an expensive Adam Wallacavage piece that I can not afford.

Hi svetla i purchased a fixture from greatchandeliers about a year ago, i ordered a maria theresa chandelier for the dining room after convincing my husband for days. The fixture came damaged and after calling them for days and getting put on hold until I hung up I finally called my credit card company to dispute the charge, after that they called me and were nasty, not the same attitude when I was giving them money. In any event I ended up purchasing a fixture from WeGotLites.com, I wish I would have found them first to save me all the trouble. The fixture was beautiful and the price was right. They were great and tech support even stayed on the phone with my husband on a Sunday to walk him through the assembly after I accidently spilled coffee on the instructions, OOPS! I hope this was helpful good luck
