OzArt Finder Terms Of Business

OzArt Finder

Terms of Business

ARTISTS

Do you charge the Artist a commission on sales or referrals?

Art buyers can buy artwork direct from the Artist or through OzArt Finder. Where an artist makes their artwork available via OzArt Finder we provide a Buyer Service and can co-ordinate viewing, collection or delivery of the artwork as well as holding funds on behalf of both parties. Where an artwork is sold via the Buyer Service then a Service Fee will be charged to the artist. The Buyer Service Fee is 10% of the purchase price (with a minimum fee of $20). 

What are your TERMS & CONDITIONS for OZART FINDER Membership?

Up to 20 artworks can be showcased under each category on OzArt Finder. For example, if we set up your membership as Painter/Printmaker or any variation of the categories shown on our site, 20 artworks can be listed under each category. For members who have their personal website developed by OzArt Finder, the limit of 20 artworks does not apply. Artists are able to upload any amount of artworks. In most cases, the artwork in an artist’s OzArt Finder profile, mirrors the images on their personal website.  For further details on Websites, see our section; OzArt Finder Websites

As we do not stock any items, all works of art must be shipped by the artist directly to the buyer, either personally by the artist or using professional and insured couriers. Insurance on shipping must always be included. It is the responsibility of the artist to accurately calculate the cost of packaging, shipping and insurance. Once calculated, the amount needs to be confirmed to us via email to enable us to include this cost in our invoice to the purchaser.

All artists who agree to our Buyer Service indicating that their work is available for sale via OzArt Finder must agree to abide by our money-back guarantee provisions. For the protection of both artist and buyer, funds paid are held in our OzArt Finder service account, until such time that both parties are satisfied with the transaction.

All paintings upload must be an original artwork and all prints must be a numbered and signed limited edition.

At OzArt Finder we reserve the right to refuse artworks which do not meet our required standards or which we consider to be inappropriate. 

For further information on showcasing your artwork on OzArt Finder, please send your enquiry to info@ozartfinder.com.

BUYERS

How do I purchase an artwork displayed on OzArt Finder?

Once you’ve chosen your artwork, simply click on the Buy Now tab and we’ll reserve the artwork and send you a confirmation email with bank deposit details. On receipt of cleared funds in the OzArt Finder service account we then give the go ahead for the Artist to despatch the artwork to you. Once you’ve confirmed with OzArt Finder that the artwork has been received, and is in good condition, we then release the funds to the Artist.

What happens if the artwork does not state that it is available for sale via OzArt Finder?

Our Buyer Service is optional for the artists, as art buyers can buy direct from the Artist. This can be convenient for both parties when you know, or have previously dealt with the artist and are able to personally collect the artwork and settle full payment at the time of collection.

What happens if I prefer to use your Buyer Service and the artwork does not indicate that it’s available via OzArt Finder?

When an artwork does not specify that it is available for sale via OzArt Finder, the Buy Now tab does not appear. If it is your preference to purchase the artwork via OzArt Finder to alleviate any concerns you may have when purchasing artwork online, please send your enquiry to info@ozartfinder.com and we will contact the artist on your behalf.

Does it cost extra to purchase artwork using the Buyer Service?

It doesn’t cost the Art Buyer any extra to use OzArt Finder’s Buyer Service. The Service is designed to protect the Art Buyer and the Artist and to ensure both parties are satisfied with the transaction. The Service Fee is deducted from the price paid to the Artist for the artwork. We do not charge any commission or fees beyond the Buyer Service Fee. 

Who is responsible for the cost of Shipping and Insurance?

This is usually the responsibility of the buyer; however, it can sometimes be negotiated with the artist who may be willing to cover some of the cost of packaging and postage.

What if I’m not completely satisfied with artwork or if it’s damaged? Do you provide a Money Back Guarantee and Returns Policy?

Yes, at OzArt Finder we provide a money back guarantee on artwork purchased using our Buyer Service.   When you notify us of a return, we do not release payment to the artist concerned until satisfactory resolution of your claim.  We allow a period of 10 days from the date of dispatch in which you may make a claim and return the artwork to obtain your refund.  If your claim is approved we refund the full purchase price of the item, less freight costs (as itemized on the invoice).

Please Note: We do not cover the cost of return freight & packaging costs.

What is covered in the Money Back Guarantee?

  • If the artwork on our website totally and clearly misrepresents the item you have received.
  • If the artwork is damaged in any way.
  • If the artwork you receive is significantly different in size or weight from that published on our website. Please note; overall sizes of works are often approximates.
  • If the order is completely incorrect; i.e. the delivered work is not the artwork ordered.

What is NOT covered in the Money Back Guarantee?

  • Our guarantee does not cover you changing your mind.
  • Minor differences in colour between the item’s photograph on our website and the actual artwork. Please note; due to inherent limitations of computer screens and photographic equipment, we cannot guarantee accurate representation of colours.
  • Any malicious damage or damage incurred through inadequate return packaging.

For further information on purchasing artwork, please send your enquiry to info@ozartfinder.com.

 

ART GROUPS

Do you charge Art Groups to have a listing on OzArt Finder?

Art Group listings are completely free and can provide as much or as little information as the individual group desires. We set up the basic information on each group for the benefit of our viewers to assist them in choosing the most suitable art group to join. Direct links to the group’s website and/or facebook page are provided for the viewer to obtain full details.

Are we also able to display details on our forthcoming Art Shows?

Yes, we encourage this for the benefit of our viewers to find out when and where your next event will be held. Additional information on your rules and conditions, etc., can also be uploaded for artists wanting to participate in the events. In addition to listing these events under your Group’s Profile, these can also be listed under our ‘Events’ tab displayed in our top menu on our home page. These listings are for all artists, art groups and galleries and are listed in date order. Information can either be forwarded to us or can be uploaded by a group member by using our easy on-line facilities. Login details and instructions can be given upon request. 

Do you have facilities for our members to showcase their artworks within our Group’s Profile?

Yes, we also encourage this as it gives the general public an idea of the quality of artwork they can expect to see at your Art Shows.

Our Art Society also conducts tuition via regular Art Classes and Workshops.  Are we also able to list these classes?

Absolutely, listings for art classes and workshops can be detailed within your group’s profile and similar to our ‘Events’ listings, further details can be displayed under our separate ‘Tuition’ tab on our top menu, which again are listed in date order.

Is there any assistance available to upload new information about our Group and also to upload images of our members’ artwork?

Uploading, updating and amending information and images is very easy using our on-line facilities. However, if you’re unfamiliar with digital images, etc., then we’re happy to assist to get you started. Just communicate via email and we’ll step you through the process so that you can take control of your Art Group on-line.

For further information on listing your Art Group on OzArt Finder, please send your enquiry to info@ozartfinder.com.

 

ART TEACHERS

Is there a cost involved to be included in your listings of Art Teachers?

No, our listings for Art Teacher located under our ‘Tuition’ section in our top menu are completely free.

If I do register as an Art Teacher, can I upload details of my classes and workshops?
