You will be asked to register or log-in to your arti-mezat.com account to begin your auction estimate request. In some cases, we will contact you to arrange an appointment to gather further details. You may also make an appointment to bring your property to the Artı Mezat Auction office nearest you. If your property is not appropriate for an Artı Mezat Auction, we will recommend an alternative selling venue.

Shipping and Insurance

Our staff can help arrange to have your property delivered to the Artı Mezat Auction location where it will be offered at auction. For assistance, please contact the selling location or your nearest Artı Mezat Auction office. As the consignor, you are responsible for packing, shipping and insurance charges.

Pricing and Payment

The seller’s contract sets the reserve price and the seller’s commission. For sold lots, Artı Mezat Auction will send payment within 45 days from the sale date, provided we are in receipt of the buyer’s payment. Your payment will be based on the hammer price less a commission and any agreed-upon expenses. If bidding on your item fails to reach the reserve price , we will not sell the piece at auction. Some consignors choose to take back their work(s), while others decide to offer it in a later auction or through our private sales department. Together, we will determine the best course of action. Charges, such as shipping and handling that were agreed pre-sale, will be invoiced immediately after the auction. If a lot does not sell, the reserve price will be used to determine certain fees. With hundreds of live and online auctions every year, Artı Mezat Auction will recommend the best type of sale to achieve the highest price for your property. Our experts also will consider the advantages of selecting one auction location over another and the most suitable time to sell your property.
