Affiliate Disclosure

Affiliate Disclosure

Gilded Lot (gildedlot.com) is published by LiBrAi, a Dutch sole proprietorship. This page explains how we earn money and how that relates to what you read here. It is written to meet the disclosure expectations of the European Union and the Netherlands (including the Unfair Commercial Practices rules and the Dutch Advertising Code) and the U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.

In Short

Some links on Gilded Lot are affiliate links. If you click one and then register, bid, buy or sign up with that company, we may earn a commission or referral fee. This costs you nothing extra.

Which Partners We Work With

We participate, or may participate, in affiliate programs offered directly by companies or through affiliate networks, including:

  • Online auction platforms and marketplaces such as Catawiki
  • Pre-owned watch marketplaces and dealers such as Chrono24
  • Art, jewelry, precious metals and collectibles retailers
  • Affiliate networks such as Awin, Partnerize, CJ (Commission Junction) and Impact, which track referrals on behalf of these companies

The list of partners changes over time. Where an individual article contains affiliate links, we say so near the top of that article.

How Affiliate Links Are Marked

Affiliate links on Gilded Lot carry the attributes rel="sponsored nofollow" and appear in articles that carry a clear disclosure notice. When in doubt, assume that a link to a marketplace, retailer or auction platform may be an affiliate link.

Our Editorial Independence

  • Our partners do not review, approve or edit our articles before publication.
  • Commission rates do not determine which items, platforms or auctions we feature.
  • We cover auction houses and sales that have no affiliate relationship with us whenever they are relevant to collectors.
  • If we ever publish sponsored content or receive an item or service free of charge, we will label it clearly as “Sponsored” or “Gifted” at the beginning of the content.

Prices and Availability

Prices, estimates and availability mentioned on Gilded Lot are indicative and were correct when we checked them, as noted alongside the information. They can change at any time. The price and terms shown on the seller’s or auction house’s own website at the time of your purchase always apply. We do not display “was/now” or crossed-out reference prices.

Cookies and Tracking

Affiliate partners and networks use cookies or similar technologies to recognize that you arrived from Gilded Lot. These are only placed after you give consent through our cookie banner. You can change your choice at any time. See our Privacy Policy for details.

Not Financial Advice

Earning a commission does not mean we recommend any purchase as an investment. Gilded Lot writes about collecting as a passion. Nothing on this site is financial, investment, tax or legal advice.
