ALL SALES HELD BY PBA GALLERIES ARE CONDUCTED PURSUANT TO SECTION 2328 OF THE COMMERCIAL CODE AND SECTION 535 OF THE PENAL CODE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA CONSIGNING BOOKS TO PBA GALLERIES The first step in consigning to PBA is to contact the Galleries, either by phone, fax, email or letter. It can then be determined whether the item or items under consideration would do well at auction. Following this, arrangements can be made for the delivery of the material to PBA. In the case of large consignments or libraries, a member of the staff may be able to view the books on location, and make arrangements for its transportation to PBA Galleries. Because of the costs involved, PBA discourages consignments with a total value of less than $1500. The frequency of auctions, and variety of subject matter, allows PBA Galleries to ensure quick turn-around time for items consigned. Books can appear at auction as quickly as 30 days and generally not more than 90 days following consignment. Commissions vary between 10% and 15%, depending on the selling price of an item.These commissions encompass all related costs including insurance, storage, cataloguing, illustrations, etc., except shipping. Payment is sent within 20 banking days of an auction.
