The Sweetest Little Thing: a fundraiser for Struts Gallery and the Owens Art Gallery, Sackville, New Brunswick, Canada
How to Bid
- The works are shown with the latest arrivals first. New works are arriving daily. Check back regularly.
- You must create an account in order to bid.
- The username you choose will appear next to your bid.
- If you would like your bids to remain anonymous, then feel free to choose a clever pseudonym.
- You cannot change your username once it's been created.
- Be sure to enter correct contact information (first and last name, email, phone, etc), so we can reach you if you win a work.
- Once you're logged-in, bid on a work by entering an amount in the field below the artwork; click the "Place Bid" button. It's that easy!
- Monitor the bidding on your auctions to see if someone else has out-bid you — when you're logged-in, your Account screen shows the auctions you've bid on with links to each of them.
- Online bidding closes at 5 pm Atlantic Standard Time on Sunday, 14 February, 2010. At that time current high bids from the online auction will become opening bids at the live auction taking place that night at the Owens. After online bidding closes we will accept maximum bids by email which we will execute at the auction on your behalf and notify you by e-mail on Monday, 15 February as to the outcome. For more information on Maximum Bids, see details below.
- Sorry. We are only able to accept checks. No credit cards!
- Upon receipt of payment, we will ship the work to you; shipping is $10.
- Enjoy your new art work for many years to come!
