The service is good but the pricing could improve. I only own one piece of art, and I find the cost for tracking that one piece very expensive at the first cohort. However, the information seems good and prompt.

Good communication between all parties

Good communication between all parties, including myself. Along with enough explanation for me to understand the process of how they carry on business. The result was being able to send my piece to an appropriate auction house, gallery. Looking forward to hearing how the rest works out.

Good information but unresponsive customer service

A lot of valuable information about sales and artists- customer service response time is disappointing.

Inquired twice within the last week about different service pricing and have had no response.

Worries me about trying to cancel or renew services

Hi Paul,

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear you feel your experience hasn’t met expectations.

According to our records, your account was upgraded to the Personal Alert Annual subscription, which provides significantly more access and features than the free version. Additionally, our support team has reached out to you on multiple occasions to clarify the benefits included in your plan, but we have not received a response.

We encourage you to check your inbox (including your spam or junk folders) for those messages, as it’s possible our responses were missed. If you’re still unsure about your current access or would like to explore other subscription options better suited to your needs, please don’t hesitate to reach out again--we’re more than happy to help clarify or make adjustments based on your preferences.

We appreciate the opportunity to assist further.

3 year experience with MutualArt

I rarely receive advance notice of auctions for the artists I follow. As a collector, I cannot rely on MutualArt.

Mutual Art was easy to use and very responsive to questions. After the death of my mother, I was left with over 20 paintings to sell. With no experience in this area, it was a big load off my mind to enlist the services of an expert. It was simple to enter the details of the paintings on the site and I later received an email introducing me to an auction house interested in featuring them. Recommend!
