Bonhams โข Art Auctions โข London ๐ฌ๐ง, by 19818914 on Mar 8, 2019 22:25:35 GMT 1, Contacted Bonham's specialist today to ask about the Hook. Was told there are quite a few post sales offers in and to have a chance I would have to offer 'comfortably' over the low estimate to have any chance! Shame, thought it could have been got for less than low estimate.
Would you still have to pay the buyers premium on top?

Bonhams โข Art Auctions โข London ๐ฌ๐ง, by Harveyn on Mar 8, 2019 23:22:48 GMT 1, This dog will have his day.
I remember offering $100k plus fees for a Condo canvas at Sotheby's that failed to reach that low estimate. It was turned down. Several years later the canvas sold for several multiples and 5 years later its probably now worth $650k+
Not every piece that does not sell at auction is burnt, not even short term.
Bowies Basquiat sold in 1989 for $350k, Bowie bought it in 1995 for $132k and in 2016 it was sold for over $9m.
The seller and Bonhams are quite right not to sell this work cheap. IMO.

Was told there are quite a few post sales offers in and to have a chance I would have to offer 'comfortably' over the low estimate to have any chance! Shame, thought it could have been got for less than low estimate. Would you still have to pay the buyers premium on top? Yes, the house still collects the same buyers premium. It's typical for works to have significant post sale interest in high profile names. Picture dealers galore thinking they can pick off something inexpensive and offer in the gallery bringing welcome attention and hopes for a profit.
Reading Dappy's comment after yours, I, for one, would not call this a blind auction. The house continues to solicit bids and they will select the highest depending on many circumstances. Unlike blind auctions where you submit one bid, bidders may continue to raise offers. Sometimes they'll sell it to the first person who bids the reserve (plus premium), other times they'll work it for a couple weeks but this is generally with input from the consignor so not blind per se as once it gets above the reserve then all after sale bidders know that it will be sold.
As an example, I recall about a decade ago in the depths of the last correction a tiny red keep it real monkey on canvas passing at one of the houses with a 12-15k gbp estimate (form memory). I enquired as did a friend and at least another, unknown (to us) bidder. Once the friend and i put one and one together that we were bidding against each other, I bowed out. He kept at it and eventually lost to the other bidder at ~25k gbp from memory which was considerably more than the high estimate from the actual sale. Point being, I feel comfortable taking the house (if it's christie's, sotheby's, phillips or bonahms) at their word on a post sale transaction as they want the sale as does the consignor. It often behooves someone interested to just cut to the chase and ask at what price can the house sell it? Frankly, I'd be surprised if either of the banksy's that passed this week are returned to the consignors as post sale transactions on unsold lots are the norm these days.

As an artist, with the probable exception of the Bronze Rat, Banksy's art does not translate well in to sculptural form. To a serious collector, that Crucifix has several challenges to it, firstly the religious issue, not many collectors would want to have a Crucifix hanging on their wall. Secondly, the political message, it has no narrative to it to support it, therefore renders it weak, thirdly, what do you actually consider the more interesting work to display, the cross or the box, or as some have suggested, cut the box in to 4, therefore makes each component as weak as the other. To a seasoned collector, they will consider all these factors and make their choice whether to bid or not. I was offered one of these at the time of release, and for the reasons mentioned above, I turned it down.
You have to buy the art because you like it, and not because of the artist.

Bonhams โข Art Auctions โข London ๐ฌ๐ง, by abacus on Mar 9, 2019 16:26:10 GMT 1, Maybe... There were no true collector interest on the night. But lets say there were dealer interest. As a dealer you want to buy on the bid and sell on the offer. Hence, when no one bids in the room, there is no upside for you to do so, when you can potentially pick it up quietly at the reserve (bid side) in the after sale. If two (or more) dealers think like that, the actual clearing price in the after sale could be higher (as it sounds like was the case here).
There is also a reason, perversely, why a dealer might actually like this result. I imagine dealer inventories is in general low. Hence a registered no sale could scare some less seasoned holders of this edition to get out (privately) for only a small profit.
You obviously have to believe strongly in the (future of the) Banksy market for this to make sense.

Lets see if some forum mod deletes this.

Bonhams โข Art Auctions โข London ๐ฌ๐ง, by irl1 on Mar 27, 2019 22:33:12 GMT 1, My calculation is this........... Sale price ยฃ64'000 +25% buyers premium ยฃ16'000 = ยฃ80'000. Vat of 20% on ยฃ16'000 = ยฃ3200 Total ยฃ83'200 = close enough So the seller gets 64,000 less fees.
Noting wrong with that return for the length of time they had it

Sellers don't get charged the buyer's fees, do they? since when is the minus sign adding ? Manty is talking about how much cash the seller ends up with. He seems to be taking the hammer price then taking away the buyers premium. Or am I misreading it?

Or am I misreading it? nope thats correct, you could point out two numbers- what the buyer paid or the seller achieved and he seems to focus on the latter

He seems to be taking the hammer price then taking away the buyers premium. Or am I misreading it? there was no hammer but the ยฃ83k does say that it included premium.
If that is the case, then the actual sale price would be ยฃ83k minus buyers fees, say 30%, then the seller has to pay his sellers fees on that actual sale price, say 10%, and that would be roughly what the seller took home give or take VAT on fees and any tax that may be incurred for the profit, always assuming he had any profit.

Either way pretty disappointing result I for Hook owners, a far cry from the ยฃ250k+ people were predicting. I'm not surprised though, difficult piece to display.
