National Geographic Fine Art Galleries Challenge Counterfeits and the Grey Market with Trusted.com

National Geographic Fine Art Galleries to offer Trusted.com eTitles

Reston, VA, March 25, 2015 – Trusted.com, a provider of authenticity verification and anticounterfeiting solutions, is pleased to announce that National Geographic Fine Art Galleries has elected to offer Trusted.com eTitle services to their customers in an effort to combat counterfeit and grey market activities plaguing the art industry.

Starting early summer of 2015, Trusted.com eTitles will be offered exclusively through National Geographic Fine Art Galleries. Our eTitles will detail the ownership history of the print through the National Geographic Fine Art Galleries authorized supply chain and can be verified via our point of sale system or online check authenticity feature prior to purchases; thus, allowing National Geographic Fine Art Galleries customers to shop with confidence and proactively avoid counterfeit and non-warrantied timepieces.

At the time of sale, National Geographic Fine Art Galleries customers will be able to register ownership of the eTitle for their purchase. The eTitle provides the customer with a verifiable record of ownership, thereby preserving the value of the item. The customer has the ability to transfer the eTitle to a new owner should they ever wish to resell, which extends the benefits of verifiable ownership history to aftermarket sales.
