Buying Options
There are several options available to you for bidding. These include:
- Online via Live Auctioneers
- Live in Our Gallery (food and refreshments served)
- Absentee Bid with Heritage Gallery Auctions
- Phone Bid with a Heritage Gallery Auctions staff member.
Our Buyer’s Premium (the percentage you pay on top of the hammer price) is 28% if you bid through LiveAuctioneers. However, if you make payment via cash, certified check, verified personal check, or wire transfer, we will discount the Buyer’s Premium to 25%. If you bid in house, or choose to use the absentee bid form and pay by cash or check, the Buyer’s Premium is discounted to 20%
Please note: All sales are FINAL. We have an open preview in the 2 day period prior to the sale and invite you to come see the items that caught your eye in person. For those that cannot attend our live preview, we post 6-10 images of each lot online. Please review them closely prior to bidding.
Buying Art
If an item is described as “After,” “In the Manner of,” “In the Style of,” or “In the School of,” we will not accept the lot back due to authenticity concerns. We will guarantee the medium as described.
Shipping
We do not have in house shipping. The gallery does supply a list of shippers our clients frequently work with, however you are free to use any shipper of your choice. All items must be picked up within 5 business days from the date of sale. Due to space restrictions, we cannot make any exceptions.
If the items are not picked up within the 5 days and you have not contacted our office, your items will be sent to an off-site third party storage facility at the buyer’s expense.
