Flat Shipment Fee
artelino charges you a flat shipment
rate that includes everything - transport, insurance and
packaging.
The shipment fee for your order depends on:
- shipment class of the item
- your shipment zone
- quantity
If you order several items, the highest shipment class
is applicable for the per shipment and
per item fee. For some shipment classes and
shipment methods the per shipment fee is zero.
On your request we hold your purchases from several
auctions back up to 6
months and ship consolidated when you ask us
to do so. We calculate the consolidated shipment as one order.
If you want to use this service, please change your
account
to Consolidated Shipping = Yes. If you accumulated art products
from different product groups (for instance art prints, Tibetan statues and
Tibetan thangkas), then we ship each product group consolidated and charge for
each group a separate shipment fee. Consolidated shipping is not applicable
for Tibetan carpets. We ship these immediately.
When you want us to ship your accumulated orders on hold,
you can release them from
your account. Please
select Orders and Invoices, next select from the
drop-down menu Request Shipment of HOLD Orders, next
check the orders you want us to ship and click the button
Ship checked orders.
We ship art prints for free if the following minimum values are reached:
-
North America and Middle East: USD 4,000 or more.
-
Europe: USD 3,000 or more.
-
Germany: USD 2,000 or more.
-
All Others (Asia and Australia): USD 8,000 or more.
Minimum values are calculated as the totals of all
hammered prices without commission and VAT (where applicable). Total value may
be accumulated over several auctions (HOLD option) up to
6 months.
Please note that only art on paper (art prints) is eligible for
free shipment.
