Beautiful items with willing service!
I’ve been buying from Hindman for many years. No matter which city, the consistent quality of their items is outstanding! Importantly, questions & overall service is impeccable. I’ve grown to count on them over the years!.

Great experience working with Hindman
We have participated in numerous auctions presented by Hindman Auctions over the decades. Living in IL, they offer first rate auctions — especially in the Fine arts. The relief sculpture by Leonardo Drew was a rare find as his work does not come up for auction often. This is one of the most important contemporary artists/sculptors of the 21st century. When you participate in their auctions, they treat you as if you were a prominent collector — with respect and an invested interest in curating our collection. We review all the lots that are posted and know the images that represent each work are remarkable. Their staff research each lot and the descriptions are accurate and they try to include provenance that supports its value. We have established a wonderful relationship with UPS Store # 3878 which provides pick up and shipping services for us. It’s a remarkable system they have in place to assure their clients professional and safe delivery of their artwork. We always look forward to the next auction.

Hindman Stands By Their Listings and Descriptions
Have been a Hindman client in the past. Requested a condition report for a very fragile item. There was an issue with the piece when received. However, after reviewing their photos and mine taken as the box was opened, management was proactive and we reached a mutually agreeable solution. Hindman has been in business for a long time and their excellent customer service is why. Also, recommend their in-house Chicago shipping when available. With any auction firm, it is always important to request a condition report, unless a very detailed report is included in the listing. Definitely recommend Hindman for their professionalism and customer service.

The cost of crating was outrageous!
Over a thousand dollars to crate up and ship the items all together. They could have been boxed and shipped individually for a quarter of that price.

Another great experience with Hindman
Once again, we participated in a Modern/Contemporary Art Auction put forth by Hindman. Our experiences are always the same — well organized, lots are well presented and researched, photos are worthy of the quality of art work. We have a support system for shipping and packing with the UPS Store # 3878 that’s also remarkable. Personally, we are building a collection for the Peoria Riverfront Museum and the offerings from Hindman are parallel with the Museum’s mission and our curatorial standards. We proudly support an Illinois auction house, an Illinois Museum and a local IL business. (UPS Store # 3878). If we were limited to only one auction house to build our collection, we would choose Hindman over the New York mega auctions every time. It’s gives us confidence that we are able to find unique objects that help educate the public to appreciate Contemporary/Modern art. We look forward to the future.

Great auction customer service.
Absolutely happy with auction house. I buy from a few platforms and the outside shipping was excellent but by far the most I have ever paid for this size piece. I did shop around and all quotes were unreal. Received items from Europe at significantly less than this transaction.

Great item but buyer’s premium and shipping was way too expensive
The item was as shown and reported. The product is beautiful and I was well informed on the buyers premium however it still caught me off guard on how expensive it was Then on other houses I have purchased from the shipping has always been free for small items like jewelry. Hindman charged me $125 to send me my item. The total paid for my item was more than I should have paid for it. Transparency was there I will just be wary of this auction house in the future.

Easy to Communicate with!
I would use Hindman again! Besides my home and horse i purchased the most expensive items of my life. Hindman was terrific; I was able to call them and talk to them after my purchase. They were very helpful about shipping and who to use. Thanks you

Great Chicago Auction house
We have had the privilege to build our collection of Contemporary and Modern Art through the offerings at Hindman Gallery. Always great communicators and professionally work well with our preferred shipping agency. Their focused art auctions typically included Illinois artists that we prefer to support and promote. We curate our collection, and always peruse the early survey of lots so we can schedule time to participate. It has always been and will be one of our favorite auction experiences. This last purchase we sought out to include in a future museum exhibition was one of Illinois’s most recognized and prominent artists Nicolas Africano.

Good experience... except...
Hindman runs wonderful auctions. But, I hate third party shipping for small items. Takes longer, costs more to get my lots. The shipper was great, but it's an added-expensive-step that I don't appreciate; especially on smaller items.
