Steps to purchase
1Negociation
Interested by an artwork?- First of all, you have to create an account. Then you can start a negotiation by offering your price to the seller directly on the artwork page.
- Art Shortlist will notify the seller without revealing your identity.
- You will communicate with the seller through Art Shortlist until safely reaching an agreement on the price.
Important : The seller will have 48h to answer your offer and you will have 24h to answer him.
You have two options to offer a purchase price :
- you can either buy at the displayed price and the artwork is yours.
- or you can start a negotiation with the seller for a lower price.Do you want to see the artwork ? It will be possible to organize a private visit of the artwork at the seller's home or at our showroom in Paris (other meeting places may be considered).
2Payment & delivery
- Once the agreement is reached with the seller, Art Shortlist may, if you wish, send you an electronic confirmation. This step is optional but recommended.
- You will be able to sign it easily from your smartphone, tablet or computer.
- Then, Art Shortlist will ask you to pay by bank transfer.
- Your transfer will be held in a secure bank account until you receive the artwork. This system protects you against payment risks and allows Art Shortlist to collect its 15% commission in addition to the price agreed with the seller.
- The delivery of the artwork will be arranged in person or through a secure carrier, according to your preference.
