Hi gang,

wanted to ask if anyone has had experience selling with sothebys, Phillips, bonhams?

Is there anything you should look out for, the hidden costs, who's the best to go with, overall experience? 

thanks 

Best prices from Sotheby's, Christies & Phillips. 

It depends on what your selling. That KAWS print i would go with a New York branch. Send pictures to all 3 and see what they come back with. Just so you know they won't put the full value of your print as a reserve,
They like to start lower to bring in the bidders. Haggle the selling rates. 

Go on their sites and check the results for peace of mind 

Thanks for the info, im in london so might be a bit difficult gong with the NYC branch, Phillips have offered me a reduction in fees (without asking) as im looking to sell like 6 items.
