You can use Wise for transferring money. You need the bank account info and Wire can use your credit card as payment. I live in Germany too and wiretransfer is the best option for the cheapest exchange rate 

11x17" pencil commission by Chasen Grieshop

His style is hardly influenced by Michael Turner and when I saw some recent commissions, I jumped on his list.

I had no intention to buy something, but I found a nice Witchblade DPS from Randy Green for a reasonable price, to I got it for my „House of the Witchblade“ collection. 
 

The Darkchylde cover by Jim Lee was nice. Was sold at Heritage for $2.200 in 2016 and asking price was $12k, closing price was $10k. 

Batman #4 cover by David Finch

You're right, but do you think Wise is used by many european OA dealers ?

The buyer could use Wise. The dealer just get the money from Wise through his bank account. 

I live in Germany and bought a lot of art in the US or from artist in South-America and Asia. 

Packaging should be at masonite board and this should be in a bigger box. If the art is expensive (over $1.5k) I would prefer fast shipping via DHL express or UPS. When I send via DHL to the US, normal packages cost 45€, but shipping time is 2-4 weeks. Via express the shipping time is just 5-7 days and they do the customs process. I feel more comfortable receiving and sending higher valued art this way.

You can save some $$$ to pay via Wise. The exchange rates at PayPal are terrible. You pay 3-4% more.

This Enrico Marini Dark Prince page lost 33% of his value in 2 years. The consignor lost 54% (if he/she paid the 15% fee and the BP was 25% here) or $9150. 

But the auction 2 years ago was a Platinum Signature auction and this page was featured. This time it was „only“ the International Signature auction. Don’t know why Heritage ask for 25% BP for less work. For example the don’t put the pages at CAF for advertising.

And you can use the "edit description & artist" button to unmark the older piece, so it is not twice in your gallery. When you don't wanna sell your piece and put it in your collection you can active the piece again and you will not loose the comments, like and views.

Luckily a friend saw this on eBay for a good price, it was not tagged as a Witchblade so I missed it. Thanks James for buying this and sending this piece to my growing Witchblade collection.

48 hours after making payment you can release the payment by indicating you are satisfied with the transaction, so you have that option if you trust the seller

Why he should do that? He paid the 4% for buyers protection. 

I bought some Michael Tuner pieces for $9k at CAF last year. I paid via goods and service and the the payment was also frozen. The seller could not send it, because shipping was $500 including insurance and he had financial issues. Finally after 4 weeks the payment was released and he shipped the art and I got a great deal. But the 6 weeks for waiting for the art was horrible. 

It's just open the doors on a Friday evening event at 6PM CET.

Manuel Garcia is doing a lot of great commissions in the last weeks. I immediately jumped on his list. Tooked 10 days to finish this piece after the first request and his price is pretty low. 250€ for A3
