IMPORTANT NOTES
buyers’ commision
20% is added to the hammer price of all lots. This commission will
be paid to the artists and the hammer price will go to Pallas Projects.
Pallas Projects/Studios (founded 1996) is an artist-run not for profit
organisation dedicated to the facilitation of artistic production
and discourse, via the provision of affordable artists studios in
the city centre, and curated projects. Whyte’s will not charge any
commission or costs to Pallas Projects as their contribution to this
worthy endeavour.
room bidders
1 Room bidders must register and obtain a bidding number on
arrival. Proof of identity is required from clients new to us.
2 If successful in obtaining a lot please ensure you display your
number clearly to the auctioneer and that it is your number
that is called out. If there is any doubt about the hammer price
or buyer, please draw this to the attention of the auctioneer
immediately.
3 Payment may be made by cash, bank draft, cleared cheque,
debit or credit card – we accept Mastercard or Visa (a charge
of 2% is made on credit card transactions). There is no charge
on debit card transactions.
abstentee bidding
1 If you are unable to attend you may bid before the sale, using
the form provided. Enter the maximum you are prepared to
offer for each lot and the auctioneer will represent you as if
you are personally attending the sale. Lots are knocked down
at one step above the next highest bid, and not necessarily at
your highest bid. Example: your bid is €1,000 and next highest
bid is €800 – the hammer price is €850.
2 limit bidding: Absentee bidders may limit their total purchases
to a set amount by entering their limit on the bidding form. This
is especially useful for bidders wishing to cover as many lots as
possible while setting a maximum amount to spend.
