What about payment and shipping?
Beginning on Tuesday, May 6. After the event, winning bidders will be contacted by CFOS with instructions on paying for the art through CFOS’s Canada Helps account. A taxable receipt will be issued for any amount exceeding 25% of the value of the art item.
CFOS will pay for any shipping if that is required, unless the purchaser or the donor chooses to donate the shipping costs. Bidders may wish to bid on items that are available in their community, so that a simple pick-up may be arranged.
