This is a drawing that was made in March 2020 at the beginning of the worldwide pandemic. The stay at home order had just come down and I sat down at the kitchen table with the first piece of paper I could find, and did this.
The auction closes at 9pm (BST) Monday 3rd July, however, if a bid is placed in the last two minutes, the auction end time will extend on that lot for an additional two minutes, or until all bidding has ceased. This is called Popcorn Bidding or Bidder Extension and gives all bidders an equal chance of winning.
£50 increments for bids of £300 – £1,000
£100 increments for bids of £1,000 – £2,000
£250 increments for bids of £2,000 – £5,000
£500 increments for bids of £5,000 plus
You are more likely to be the winning bidder if at the outset you place a maximum bid i.e. the maximum amount you are willing to pay for the work. Your maximum bid is not visible to other bidders. If another bidder exceeds your maximum bid you will receive an automatic notification. If you have placed a maximum bid the auction site will automatically place bids on your behalf, but only as much is necessary to make sure that you remain the highest bidder, until it reaches your maximum bid. These automatic bids are placed in increments, as shown above.
