SALES OF PRINTS
 
  • All prints entered in the competition must be available for sale. Sales and payment will be handled by Bankside Gallery who charge a commission of 45% on picture sales. All works will be sold as seen, so your selling price should take into account the commission, and the framing and transport costs you will have incurred.
  • If you are VAT registered, please give the full retail price inclusive of VAT.
  • International artists should also take into account they will be responsible for paying any international bank transfer fees incurred by Bankside Gallery in transferring their payments to them. Any fees incurred will be deducted from the total amount due to the artist in the event of a sale of their work.
  • Artists will be notified of sales by email shortly after they occur and will receive the balance due within six weeks of the end of the exhibition.

 

Shipping Policy

  • Bankside Gallery cannot store unframed editions of your prints during the exhibition. If a customer wishes to purchase an unframed version of the framed print in the exhibition, we will process this sale as a ‘print order’ and you will be emailed a copy of the receipted invoice detailing where to post the print.

 

  • Bankside Gallery will not charge buyers for postage and packaging of unframed prints sent within the UK. This P&P cost will be the artist’s responsibility so please ensure your unframed price allows for this.

 

  • Bankside Gallery will charge the customer up to £30 for posting an unframed print to Europe. This additional amount will be passed onto the artist to cover postage and packaging costs.

 

  • Bankside Gallery will negotiate an additional charge with the customer to cover international (outside of Europe) postage and packaging of an unframed print. The amount will vary depending on the size of work, where it is going and whether it is being sent rolled or flat. This additional money will be passed on to the artist to cover costs.

 

  • Bankside Gallery will initiate shipping arrangements for the buyers of a framed piece from the exhibition to its destination, but then it will be between the buyer and the shipping company. The cost of this will be the buyer’s responsibility.
