Welcome

Welcome to the Online Art Buyers' Resource Guide. This database is for collectors only. You certainly want to know who we are and why are we doing this, well easy, we are a group of serious collectors with high knowledge of art, styles, tendencies and techniques who got tired of seeing so much trash, fraud and bad art on eBay and other online venues. We are just simple collectors of good art that is highly collectable and that have a high market and investment value. We decided to remain anonymous as we purchase good art on eBay and other venues, and if we say who we are many will jump with emails like "check out my art" and we really don’t want to nor have the time to answer any email of that kind.

Many artists who sell online made the mistake of saying "hey! I'm getting rich by selling my art on eBay" or any other venue not realizing the flood of trash and bad art that they attracted who want a piece of that pie thinking that with their badly done and crappy art they could get rich. That's why we've seen more and more the need for an independent guide for serious collectors that will point them in the right direction towards the real artists on eBay completely unbiased and warning them from who they shouldn't buy (yeah those pesky fraudulent sellers and copycats). We know that this will bring controversy, but we really think the collectors need a place where to find those so needed answers to "who should I purchase from?" or "why if they sell so high on galleries they sell so cheap on eBay?".

We have seen all kinds of sellers over the years especially on eBay, and if it's true that there is so much fraud, copycats, bad and really bad art there is also true there are quite a few incredible artists that you can purchase from.

Many artists are trying to do something similar to what we are doing complicating even more the serious research as many don't have the knowledge professional art collectors have.

Check frequently this guide as we will continuously add new names and ID's to our database. If you don't find your artist in here please ask and we will post on the blog as we do our research. Please don't send us emails as no email will be answered. We will post our answers on the blog as we find more information about that seller or artist.

Thank you.
