New This Year!
Cascading and Popcorn bidding allows you to bid with ease when you are interested in multiple lots. Please pay close attention to specific lot end times, as each lot closes individually. Refer to each lot’s countdown timer to keep track of pieces you are following.
Cascading lots close in a rolling order, a minute apart, one after another, so that you can fully focus on an individual lot without missing out on others.
Popcorn Bidding extends a lot’s availability by two minutes, with each new bid made in the last two minutes before closing. Popcorn bidding will stay active until a full two minutes passes without any new bid activity. This allows bidders to have ample time to counter, raising the most possible support for The Print Center.
Buyer’s Premium – Artsy will add a standard additional charge of 15% onto each item’s hammer price. Paying the Buyer’s Premium allows more of the proceeds from the Auction to benefit The Print Center.
