There is much debate surrounding art auctions and cruise or not sold art represents a good value for the buyer of art. Some people think that auctions of art cruise ship are the spawn of the devil, and others are happy with their experience. Read Posts on the Web about auctions of art cruise ship is like reading posts on politics and religion: everyone has their own opinion. Instead of entering the "fight", I thought I would share my unique perspective on these auctions.
In 2009, I completed a six-month assignment aboard three ships as an auctioneer of art. For years I worked as a professional auctioneer and appraiser license. As an auctioneer, I crossed the United States from Florida to Alaska and internationally to sixteen countries from Russia to Panama.I sold a variety of goods by auction: auto, real estate, jewelry, art, antiques, business assets and buildings. are widely experienced in auction sale formats and I "inside information" regarding art auctions of cruise ship.
Journey into the world of art sales was fun, but for reasons of work, which I decided not to return to the sea at this point, I am a neutral third party with nothing to gain or lose commenting on auctions of art cruise ship. I hope my insights will prove useful to those planning to go on a cruise and participate in an auction of art.
So, let me get straight to the point: you can safely and comfortably purchase art on a cruise ship?Yes, you can. Furthermore, if you understand that the process of buying art auction, you can capture some nice pieces and have fun doing it. My intention in this post is to give you an understanding of where people get into trouble as regards their purchases, so that you can avoid the same mistakes. Here's what you need to understand about art auctions of cruise ship:
1. arrives early. Showing the minute that you put the auction begins at a disadvantage. Preview the auction and the first ten minutes of the auction are important. Preview gives you time to look closely at the art and ask questions the auctioneer and the shareholders of art. Will not be able to ask questions during the auction.If you are not satisfied with the answers you get or the attitude of auctioneers, so don't buy anything. If an individual who is trying to get your money is rude and pushy before you get your money, how do you think will act after they get your money? If you're satisfied with what you learn the preview, you can feel comfortable to bid in the auction. The first ten minutes of the auction is when will explain the terms and conditions of auction sale. It is not late and pay attention.
2. know what is included in your purchase. came with a frame? Is it shipped, or you have to take him out of the ship? There is sales tax? As regards customs charges? When you can expect delivery?
3. when in doubt, don't bid. remember, this is an auction. Are you under duress to the offer. Works have a minimum price, but no maximum price. Prices increase bid progresses. An offer is a legal obligation to buy. If overbid for an item, you have only yourself to blame.
4. understand the difference between the purchase price and the final price.Hammer price is the highest bid; is the last price offered before the auctioneer declares a sold item. If you bid $ 300 for a job and the auctioneer said "sold", that would be the hammer price. It is trivial to add a supplement of auctioneers called a "buyer's premium" of 10-20% of the hammer price.Premium buyer was established the great New York and London auction of art hosts a couple of decades ago and now is in General to use almost all types of auctions. If the buyer's premium of 15% and was the hammer price was $ 300, the buyer's premium is $ 45. If items out of the ship will take with you, you will add a shipping charge; Sometimes, there may be managing taxes or insurance charges. If you
living in the State where the auction house has a plant, VAT may exist as well. The formula to calculate the final price of this instance is: hammer price buyer premium + VAT + shipping and handling + insurance = final price. Offer accordingly.
5. Understand that an evaluation has (not). Typically, certificates of evaluation are offered with graphics that you purchase a cruise ship. There is a fee for this service. Sometimes, a bidder gets carried at this moment and offers more than they had expected. This happens often to all types of auctions that there's a name: auction of fever. These guys get home, get their invoices by cruise and getting a bad case of buyer's remorse. When does art, you take them home auction or local Gallery to get an "evaluation". The buyer wants to find out if they got a good deal or not. Nine times of ten, the buyer will be told that the assessment which came with the graphics are too high. Why is this? Two reasons. Firstly, it is important to realize that all elements-including the work of art-have more value. A drawing can hang in a gallery and priced at $ 1000. Then the gallery goes bankrupt and has a clearance sale. The drawing of $ 1000 sells for $ 150. Value retail liquidation value. There is also a value insurance, tax value of gift, auction value, fair market value and cash value. The maximum estimated value for nothing has the insurance value. Evaluations of art cruise ship rely on the value of insurance, and this is clearly in the terms and conditions at the beginning of the auction. If an item is insured, you need to have enough coverage.The lower the liquidation value, sometimes called value auction.If you have taken the drawing of an auctioneer to your opinion, what value do you think he will give?Value of auction sales, of course.And the owner at the retail art gallery?Retail value.Item itself; six different values.Secondly, the evaluation is a job search. an expert must support his conclusions with evidence, not just opinions.Evaluations offered with the art of cruise ship are supported by data from hundreds of weekly auctions and sales Gallery.Assessments only up an opinion of individuals being thrown out of court tax every day, regardless of the credentials of the evaluator. have you ever seen Antiques Roadshow? When specifying a value, the Roadshow experts always say something like "I think this element could lead to $ XXX auction": auction value. an in-depth assessment can take days. don't expect an opinion improvised by the owner of the gallery premises or auctioneer qualifies as an evaluation.
Auctions of art cruise ship are fun, and art purchased on a cruise can give pleasure every day that hangs on the wall. don't let skeptics keep you away from what could be a wonderful experience on your cruise.
