Anyone bought from Hype Art Broker?, by Blue on Jan 24, 2023 21:34:47 GMT 1, Hello all,
Anyone used hypeartbroker.com before ?
Found a piece i'm after on their site which is very competitively priced and in this game, if somethings too good to be true, it nearly always is...
Cheers in advance.

Then whatever you wanted will get bought by Maddox or some other dealer. I have contacted them previously and asked for authenticity information. They did not reply. That’s enough for me to advise that all people stay away. In addition to this I believe that both their Facebook page and Instagram are now gone.

Anyone bought from Hype Art Broker?, by jeeves on Jan 24, 2023 21:46:21 GMT 1, I was just thinking the same! There’s a piece I would like to buy and at first they replied to my query quite quickly, telling me not to worry because their in house authentication team is v expert etc etc, but once I started asking about provenance etc (for a print of such a value there for sure must have been something somewhere re: current owner’s purchase for example) and asking what happens if I buy it and take it for official certification and it fails, they have suddenly gone silent. I have tried 2-3 follow ups but nothing..

Anyone bought from Hype Art Broker?, by StickOut on Jan 25, 2023 11:37:15 GMT 1, I enquired about a piece once and they couldn’t give me a photo because “the print was in another gallery” and they also couldn’t tell me what type of glass was in the frame. Plenty of red flags so as the other members advised, I’d steer clear

Chances are, they haven't seen the actual artwork themselves and so wont be in a position to answer any queries. Have you done a google search to try and find the actual seller? You might also like to do a search on art.co which will give you the name of dealers selling specific works of art.
