People also find the platform extremely useful for researching historical auction prices, discovering new artworks, and learning more details about the international art market.

Paid for appraisal upfront and got unusable download.

Paid for appraisal in advance and received email with download that can not be opened by any application I have or I can secure online. Have called, sent three emails since 12/1/25 to support@ and appraisal@ individually and then both at once, and the contact form with no reply. No office or personnel in US so at the mercy of foreign entity who now has my credit card information.

Addendum: Finally got a call returned 12/5. Said they are very busy and so they can't answer emails or voice mails any faster. Said they emailed my 12/3 (nope). Still unable to open download which is all of 4.2mb. Does not open from email or their website. No app online to open it either. Is probably a security issue with malware but evidently they can't just email a pdf. Told me the value they gave the artwork which is not even close to other valuations. Said they use accredited appraisers but wouldn't sent me their qualifications. Total ripoff. Paid $49 and have nothing to show for it.

Reply to their bogus reply: Skippy says he emailed me on Wed 12/3 but he did not and it is not in my Junk/Spam folder which I check multiple times per day. The countless emails and calls were from me to you not the other way around so don't put it out there like you are on your game. The download does not open on any browser on any computer (2), phone (4), or iPad (2). Your lies about your your level of customer service only give credence to the real story of what you have not done.

Hi David,

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry for the frustration you experienced.

After reviewing your case, we confirmed that the appraisal file is functioning properly and the issue appears to be related to the download on your end. Our team reached out several times by email and phone to help, but we were unable to complete any troubleshooting because the agent was not given the opportunity to walk through the steps before the call ended.

We’ve shared all the information available and confirmed that there is no issue on our side. Since we were unable to provide support during the attempts made, there is unfortunately nothing further we can do from our end.

Best wishes,
The MutualArt Team

Reduced price for premium service.

I signed up on Nov 27 at a cost of $295 and a week later the cost was reduced to $250.
I believe I should be issued a refund of the difference of $45 since the discounted price happened very quickly.

Hi Leonard,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry for the inconvenience — the promotional email was sent in error, as the Cyber Monday discount was intended only for new users. That said, we completely understand your concern, so we made an exception and applied the discounted price to your account. A refund for the difference has already been issued.

If you have any other questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to reach out to our support team. We're here to help!

Pay to join an auction

They sent me information regarding an ongoing sale, but they want me to pay a monthly fee to view the ongoing auction.

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I understand your concern and I am sorry for any frustration this caused. Our email updates include general sale information, while full access to detailed auction data and analytics requires a membership. This helps support the extensive research and resources needed to maintain our database.

We appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your experience.

Best regards,
The MutualArt Team

Fantastic site

Fantastic site! Incredible artist database, mega research, results and presentation. I only wish there were a more "entry level" category, as I find the minimum monthly amount to be somewhat steep for creating an account. This is my case, as I wish to track one artist only. But congratulations on the excellent site and broad artist coverage!

I have been very happy with mutual art

I have been very happy with mutual art. I am French and my grandfather was a painter De Beaumont Hugues.
I tried to buy some of his paintings and mutual art has been very helpful. Besides, I am happy to enjoy information coming from mutual heart.
Excellent experience

Hi Johann,

Thank you for the wonderful feedback and the five stars. We are glad to hear the service works well for you.

We understand that if you are researching only one artist, the subscription can feel like a big investment. Your point is completely valid, and feedback like yours helps us explore ways to better support different needs.

We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and for being with us.

Desire for lower costs, but keep up quality.

I enter the site a lot to research artworks, but as I cannot afford the high subscription rates, being that I have non-comercial interest, I find It a shame that all the information you collect and can offer is not made available at an accessable rate for non- comercial clients. How frustrating it is to be poor!
