How Premier Plans work
|
Q: |
What
is the definition of a Dealer/Gallery, and what standards
have you set?
|
A: |
This refers to a Dealer in paintings, sculptures, illustrations, or signed
original printed materials. A Dealer must operate as an art Dealer/Gallery in a
professional and public venue, and adhere to all domestic and international laws
regarding artworks. In addition, a 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/Gallery 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.)

Q: |
Does
askART require a dealer to sign a contract? |
A: |
No.
Dealer Plans are month to month, and may be cancelled at any time (or) and you may cancel at any time. |

|
Q: |
If I
need more artists and ads, how can I upgrade to a higher
Dealer level in the future? |
A: |
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 Gold Dealer Plan account, I see I
am entitled to “80 ads”. How do you define an "ad"? |
A: |
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. |

Advertising on askART
|
Q: |
How
can I upgrade my regular For Sale ad so that it will be the
featured image directly on the most important page for the
artist? (The artist’s ‘Overview Page’)
|
A: |
After placing your For Sale ad, you will see a link with the rate to upgrade to a "Featured Ad".
Once you upgrade, your ad and ad images will appear on the artist’s main page. |

Technical details of using askART
|
Q: |
Are Subscriber Members and/or Dealers limited to a
certain number of "logins" per month? |
A: |
Subscribers are allowed unlimited access unless the activity level reaches our most active list, in which case we may notify you to negotiate more appropriate invoicing, or at the sole discretion of askART, deny further Subscriber membership privileges. |
|
|
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:
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 dealer
information). |

|
Q: |
May my Dealer be listed on askART without signing up for a Plan? |
A: |
For the most exposure, we recommend a Plan, however we do offer a complimentary dealer listing. Please click here for registration. |
