Extract from the rules of procedure
The wording of the complete rules of business can be viewed on our homepage www.imkinsky.com.
By request we will also send the rules of business to you.
Rules of business:
Auctions are conducted according to our conditions of sale. The rules of business are available at the Auction House, and can be requested by post or email (office@ imkinsky.com).
Estimates:
In the catalogues the lower and upper estimated values are indicated and represent the approximate bid expectations of the responsible experts.
Guarantee of authenticity:
The valuation, expert opinion and description of the art piece are carried out by the auction house experts. The auction house gives the buyer a three-year guarantee of the authenticity of the art piece, and therefore that it was in fact produced by the artist named in the catalogue.
Catalogue descriptions:
Catalogue information concerning techniques, signatures, materials, condition, provenance, period of origin or manufacture etc. are based on the current knowledge determined by the experts. Auktionshaus im Kinsky does not warrant for the correctness of these descriptions.
Insurance:
All art objects are insured. The insurance value is the arithmetic average of the two estimates. The responsibility of the Auction House lasts until the eighth day after the auction. After that, each art object is only insured if the purchaser is not in delay.
Starting price and hammer price:
The starting price is determined by the auctioneer. The bidding rises in approximate increments of 10% from the last bid. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser as long as it has reached the minimum price (reserve).
Buyer’s Premium:
For art objects which require ‘difference’ taxation the purchase price consist of the hammer price plus the sales commission of 26%. For art objects which require ‘normal’ taxation (marked with ▲), the price consists of the hammer price plus commission of 22%, plus VAT (13% for paintings, 20% for antiques). For hammer price in excess of €300,000 we will charge a commission of 17% (margin taxation) or 14% (normal taxation) for the exceeding amount.
Droit de suite:
Objects marked with an asterisk * in the catalogue are subject to droit de suite in addition to the purchase price. Droit de suite is calculated as a percentage of the highest bid as follows: 4% of the first €50,000, 3% of the next €150,000, 1% of the next €150,000, 0.5% of the next €150,000 and 0.25% of the remaining amount (i.e. over €500,000), but not exceeding a total sum of €12,500. Droit de suite does not apply to highest bids below €2,500.
