Consignment Services Thank you for visiting our site.
I'm delighted to offer our consignment service, a secure and risk-free way
for you to sell your artwork. With this service, you retain possession
of your art while we list it on our website at no charge. Importantly,
this is not an exclusive arrangement, allowing you to sell your artwork
elsewhere if you wish. It’s a win-win opportunity that I'm confident
will benefit you. By listing your work with us, you'll gain exposure to
our extensive client base. Our site currently receives over 1,000,000
hits monthly, ensuring a significant number of potential buyers will see
your artwork. This exposure could be a game-changer for the sale of your
work. For originals, please let me know the image size, framed size, and medium as well. Most importantly, please let us know
what your net asking price (what you want me to
write you a check for) is for your artwork. Then, away we go.
In addition, a phone number is very useful in case our emails to you bounce,
and we have a client interested in your artwork.
I will only list artwork online once a net asking price is provided.
Every client has different motivations for selling,
so we don't offer pricing on the pieces consignees sell. Our goal is
always to get out at least what a client has into a piece. However, that
isn't always possible. You might consider looking at the Completed
Items section of eBay to see what prices your art has sold for. You
might also consider doing a Google/Yahoo search for the artist and title
with both in quotes. You could also look at completed auctions on
Liveauctioneers.com or Invaluable.com.
When your artwork
sells: You will need to ship it to our location as we need to
verify the artwork's authenticity and condition. For works of art on paper,
please send unframed. For works of art on canvas or 3-Dimensional,
please leave the artwork in the frame for the artwork's protection during
shipping. For sculptures, jewelry, etc simply box and ship. As such, please
include your shipping costs in your net asking
price. You can use the following link to help calculate this …
https://wwwapps.ups.com/ctc/request?loc=en_US … we are in Mesa, AZ 85209 So that you know,
I WILL NOT sell artwork that isn't in a
condition I would accept into my collection. We will ONLY sell or buy
artwork in excellent condition with no scratches, dents, waves,
tears, cracks, creases, etc. Additional concerns for works on paper
are paper loss (where the paper has been torn away caused by incorrect
handling during framing); mat burn or browning/discoloration of the edges of
paper (caused by use of acidic matboards); yellowing or fading of the
artwork (caused by inappropriate use of glazing); browning/discoloration
around the image (caused by inappropriate use of glazing); and foxing (these
are brown spotting which is often caused by mildew). Additional
concerns for works on canvas are holes in the canvas and tears caused during
stretching. Payment: Once the piece has been sold
for over 30 years, we've used the same procedure. Checks are cut after
the artwork is received and verified as being authentic and in great
condition. Artwork not in excellent condition will need to be restored
before shipping to us, or our restorers can make the necessary repairs.
Failure to have the artwork restored to excellent condition will result in
our returning the artwork to you at your expense. In addition, we will
charge any cost accrued to us for the initial shipment. Feel free to
call me if you have any questions. Thank you for considering Herndon Fine Art; we look
forward to helping you sell your art!
Have a great day,
Herndon Fine Art
