sorry, was looking under invader, thinking of the wrong alliance print, but just goes to show, the place is a rip off. 2K is without their premium also, after shipping you are looking at 2,500 for a print that was released just weeks ago

Speaking from experience with them (granted this was in their earlier days), Paddle8 does not use "chandelier bids"....i.e. phantom bids up to reserve price that a previous poster was alluding to. If an item doesn't sell, it doesn't sell. Paddle8 does not give you the history or sales prices of items. Great for buyers to avoid burned listings.

Not alluding ,100% fact from experience
This happens often in auctions in general, nothing actually wrong with it,  the point i was making was its a good idea to set a price limit you want to pay beforehand not to carried away in the moment, you dont need to defend paddle8 im not attacking them just giving some advice in general to buying at auctions, inspection of the image out of the frame and detailed written condition report is top of the list, talking from experience and hopefully will help some less experience avoid time consumming and stressfull situations ive been in.

Castle is right, and i am not alluding, i am stating fact, it is a fact that they chandelier bid on that work. i happen to know the consignor, sad that they didnt even do the research and see what thats worth, their buyers are the ones who pay the price

[samfrost]

The Retna went through the reserve level of $2k and last bid was at $2.4k. A nice pickup for your friend beenrhymin if that is what it sold for.

[South Bound]

Wow, That is nuts.

[Deleted]

You can still get that Retna on eBay for $700.

(As of yesterday...the piece may now go Lucien Smith Exhibition A and sellers hallucinate that Paddle8 sale becomes the new base price.)

[daveart]

how are you guys seeing the final prices on the paddle 8 auctions.. i must be missing something..

oh, and if someone wants a retna from the Art alliance show. i dont usually sell art so quickly.. but at $2400.. i'll make an exception even pay the shipping. ha.

You have to be watching right before the auction ends. Paddle8 does not publish hammer prices, so you have to be watching at the last minute. Great for sellers...terrible for market transparency.

Sold my first Paddle 8 piece last week, they sent some professional shipping guy to my house, verified condition, takes the print and ships to the buyer. Very cool.

[Deleted]

That part sounds good.

Has the payment from them for your piece been straightforward?  Any hassles or problems?

[bonesy]

The fella just came by to pick up print yesterday, no pay yet.

[daveart]

Like the faile think those hirst pharmaceutical prints are crap .

[samfrost]

As usual, some interesting pieces, but a majority are unlikely to be sold. Thank goodness Paddle8 does not post sales results! Lots of burned listings...but you can pick up some decent works from time to time.

Did anyone see what the final price was on the Grey Nola? Thanks

Very good people to deal with at Paddle 8. I had inquired about an auction piece that I missed out on previously. They were very helpful not only to provide information, but the auction manager took it upon herself to find a comparable piece from the same artist, and I was surprised that she delivered on it a couple of months later and arranged for a private sale with the owner.
