Buyer’s Premium

All orders will incur a buyer’s premium.

Why a Buyer’s Premium?

The purpose of a buyer's premium is to help cover the cost of running an auction and to ensure the auction house can continue to provide quality services.

• Auction Costs: The buyer’s premium helps cover the overhead costs of the auction - such as the bidding platform, advertising, associate wages, tech support, and other expenses.
• Future Auctions: The buyer’s premium helps fund the planning of future auctions, including staffing, facility maintenance, travel, and equipment/supplies.
• Professionalism: The buyer’s premium helps auction houses maintain a professional level of service.
