Good to know
When you submit a bid via a catalogue, Automatic Bidding will do the bidding for you. Automatic Bidding will raise your bid on your behalf by the minimum increment each time and notify you if another bidder exceeds your bid. You will be notified if another bidder exceeds your bid. Read more about bidding here.
Viewings are for displaying the items that are lots in an auction currently in progress. The timing of viewings depends on the timetable of the related auctions. Anyone who is interested in the items in question is welcome to attend.
Online auctions
Online auctions feature the so called two minute rule, meaning the closing time of an item is extended by two minutes starting from the last bid, provided the bid is made less than two minutes before the item’s closing time.
For Example if the item closes at 6:00 pm, but a bid is left at 5:59 pm the new closing time for the item is 6:01 pm (+ 2 mins from the last bid). The sale is ended only after no new bids have been made for the item during the last two minutes.
Special and hammer auctions
After the auction, you will be informed if you won. You can pay for your purchases through My Pages. Please check the collecting and payment requirements of your purchases on the event page of the Auction. Most items should be paid and collected within five (5) adays of the end of the auction. You can also book packaging and posting for your purchases.
Please note:
The buyer must pay not only the hammer price but also the auction premium (23.25% of the hammer price) and a hammer fee of EUR 8,50. For art, an additional resale fee of no more than 5% will be charged by law if the hammer price exceeds EUR 255 and the work is still under copyright. Lots protected by copyright are marked with an asterisk (*) in the catalogue. Read more about the resale fee here.
We will professionally pack (and if necessary disassemble) items for mailing or transport. Get a quote before the auction and be fully informed about the delivery of your item! Requesting a quote does not commit you to anything. Read more here.
