The wiki explains how to add both personal and eBay sales
But how do you add private sales (auction houses or galleries, for example)?
Like this one:

(And why does it say "not counted" on that one?)

Thanks in advance.

members can add private sales following the same process as adding personal sales. Be sure to include the buyers premium in the price and a link to the sale in the notes. It will show up as you're the seller.. we can change it to a private sale if you post to the corrections thread - http://forum.expressobeans.com/viewtopi ... 8&t=108718

the Banksy sale above isn't counted toward the averages b/c it was signed

hope this helps!

This was the missing link! Many thanks

What do you mean "b/c it was signed"? Was it added to the unsigned rather than to the signed version? (I asked about this before and I used the same example but I don't remember where I got it from...)
