The Original Art Expo's Saturday Night Art Auction and Fundraiser Event will begin at 6:15pm EST on Saturday, February 21st. We anticipate roughly 80 Artwork lots to bid on, which will include artworks contributed by each Artist exhibiting at OAX.
Proxy Bidding for posted artworks will begin Thursday, January 15th and continue until 11:59pm EST on February 17th. While many lots will be presented at the start of proxy bidding, additional pieces will be posted throughout the proxy bidding window.
PROXY BIDDING
Proxy bids will be accepted through the OA EXPO Comic Art Fans Gallery. Each artwork will have a minimum bid amount specified in the FOR SALE field and in the artwork description.
To submit your bid, use the CONTACT THE OWNER form on each artwork lot or email
[email protected] with your proxy bid amount. When placing your proxy bid, please provide us with your maximum bid amount. Proxy bids will not be revealed prior to the live Floor Bidding, however, if a lot has more than one proxy bid, then we'll use the proxy bids to set the starting bid amount for Floor Bidding.
SETTING THE OPENING FLOOR BID
When there is only one or no proxy bids on an Artwork in the Auction, the starting bid on the floor will be the original minimum bid amount placed on the Artwork.
If there are two or more proxy bids on an Artwork, then the following increments will be added to the second highest proxy bid:
$50 - $1,000 = $25
$1,001 - $2,500 = $50
$2,500 - UP = $100
For example, a lot with a minimum starting bid of $500 having one proxy bid for $1,500 and a second proxy bid for $750 will have an opening floor bid of $775. OAX will have staff members at the Auction who will bid on behalf of proxy bidders who have proxy bid amounts that have not been reached.
Your proxy bid enters you into a binding contract with OAX. If your proxy bid is the winning bid and you're not present at OAX, you're required to purchase the Artwork and cover shipping and handling. Base S&H in the US is $35, and international shipping is $70. The cost to ship an item can vary based on the size of the Artwork.
