How Do You Buy Art Safely Online?
Buying a piece of art is a personal experience, whether it is a gift or for yourself, every piece of art you own tells a small story of how and where you got it and why you love it. Buying art online has many benefits: from the comfort of your own home you can literally buy anything for anywhere in the world, no matter what your budget is you will find something for you without spending hours trailing around the shops. However, whilst taking advantage of the benefits of online shopping, it is important to protect yourself. Feedback from other customers, on sites such as Ebay where this service is provided in a secure manner, is very important. Or star ratings from sites such as Amazon. Many people do not bother leaving feedback so if a service has been good enough for people to take the time to do so then is it likely that the seller is trustworthy. I am wary of sites which give testimonials. They may be genuine but are easy to fake. Customer feedback is important but it must be secure
