Classic Cars and Motorcycles at Bruun Rasmussen

Additional Costs of buying at Auction

We require a buyer's premium for all purchases at our auctions.

30% is added to the hammer price, which covers the buyer's premium of 24% and VAT on the premium. For coins, 25% is added to the hammer price, which covers the buyer's premium of 20% and VAT on the premium. For classic cars and motorcycles, the fee is 12 % of the hammer price + VAT on the fee, a total of 15 %.

Certain items are sold according to special rules for full VAT. In these cases, a VAT of 25% is calculated on both the hammer price and the buyer's premium.

For works by recent Danish and certain international artists, an artist's resale royalty must be paid to the VISDA Association, which manages copyright issues for artists. This is the case when the artist is either alive, or has died within the last 70 years. The artist's royalty is calculated according to the hammer price.
