Instant Gallery Pricing

My first symposium was last year in Richmond. I had a terrific time and plan to be in Albuquerque. I noticed in the instant gallery, some pieces were for sale and some weren't. Is there a commision on each piece if it sells? I've been searching this site but haven't found the answer to my question yet.
 
Leo,

Instant gallery sales are private transactions between turner and buyer.

The pieces for sale usually list contact information (cell phone, hotel number)
to facilitate a buy connecting with the artist.

Have a safe trip
