|
| Q: |
What
is the definition of a Premier Dealer, and what standards
have you set?
|
| A: |
This refers to a dealer in American or European paintings,
sculptures, illustrations, or signed original printed
materials. A Premier Dealer must specialize in the work of
at least one American artist, operate as an art dealer in a
professional and public venue, and adhere to all domestic
and international laws regarding artworks. In addition, a
Premier Dealer buys and sells artworks on a disclosed basis,
revealing all details necessary for a buyer or seller to
make an informed decision, and/or can be endorsed or
verified to AskART by either: the artist in whose work the
dealer might specialize, or at least one established member
of the Dealer Associations that we have listed, or a
recognized executive or staff member from one of the museums
or auction houses that we acknowledge.
(Please Note: AskART reserves the right to remove dealers from the site without
notice if a review suggests that they did not or do not comply with the
guidelines set forth herein. Dealers may also be removed for other reasons
which AskART might deem appropriate, such as violating what we consider either
good faith or ethical business standards.)

AskART require my gallery to sign a contract? |

| Q: |
If I

Premier Dealer level in the future? |

At
any time you may upgrade your account, and we will
automatically pro-rate for the upgrade. |

|
| Q: |
If, for example, I sign up for a Premier B account, I see I
am entitled to “40 ads” How do you define an "ad"? |

A “For Sale” ad is counted as one ad. A “Wanted” ad is
counted as one ad. You may mix and match as you wish. |

| Q: |
How
can I upgrade my basic For Sale ad so it will be the
feature image directly on the most important page for the
artist? (The
artist’s ‘Summary Page’)
|
| A: |
After placing your For Sale ad, you will see the option
“Premier Ad Available” whereupon you can additionally place
your ad right on the artist’s main page. |

| Q: |
Are Subscriber Members and/or Premier Dealers limited to a
certain number of "logins" per month? |
| A: |
At this time individual subscribers will be allowed
unlimited personal access, unless the frequency becomes
extraordinary in our opinion. If a subscriber has multiple
employees accessing, we may request additional subscriptions
in the future. |
| |
|
| Q: |
May more than one person use my password as a subscriber? |
| A: |
No, with exceptions. Access is intended for the subscriber's
use only, or an employee conducting research for him or her.
We will be monitoring for unusual usage and/or simultaneous
logins and may cancel subscriptions and/or dealer
registrations if bad faith has been determined. Please note:
Premier Dealers should be especially protective of their
username and password, as they will be the same for both
your auction record access and registration log in (for
adding artists and ads, and editing general gallery
information). |
