A print sliding out of an envelope beside a calendar and the three steps: apply, draw, collect

How our draws work

Most galleries sell an edition the way a shop sells a jacket: the first person to pay gets it. That works for a jacket. It does not work for forty prints and four hundred people who want one, where the winner is whoever has the fastest connection.

Releases on Robinhood Gallery are offered by draw.

Entering

Each draw is open for a few days. Choose the works you would like, in the order you would like them, and say how many you would be happy to be given; choosing more than one is how you improve your chances. Add the address the work ships to and a card.

Nothing is charged when you enter. Your card is checked with your bank and kept safely with our card processor, and you can change your entry or withdraw in My account until the draw closes.

When the draw closes

Platinum, Gold and Silver collectors are drawn first, in that order, and then everyone else at random. Each person is given their best choice still available, one work a round, up to the number they asked for. Everyone hears from us the same day.

If a work is yours, we charge your card and send the receipt, and it ships. For a work over $25,000, the card pays a $25,000 deposit and the balance is paid by bank wire within seven days. If a card is declined, a payment link follows by email, and a work that goes unpaid passes to the next name drawn.

Membership

The draws are for members, and membership is complimentary: join in a minute with your email, with no password. Anyone who has bought from us is already a member. Silver, Gold and Platinum follow what you have bought in the last eighteen months.

Three things we hold to

  • The price you see is the price. There is no fee for entering.
  • Every work ships insured from Las Vegas with its letter of authenticity, and a release earns double collector points.
  • Until the draw closes, your entry is yours to change, or to withdraw.

The Releases page shows the draw that is open now.
