<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Fugio1, post: 7016050, member: 89970&quot;]In general this is true but it is always important to read the terms because although the premiums generally fall in the 18-22% range, some recent high profile auctions have had buyer&#039;s premiums at 26%.&nbsp; &nbsp; There is a lot of competition between auction houses for really good collections and sometimes the auction will offer to market and sell the collection with little or no consignment fee.&nbsp; The cost is then transferred to the buyer.&nbsp; Theoretically if everyone is paying attention, and considering the full price, the hammer prices are lower.&nbsp; It all works out in the end when you are careful and use the advice described by [USER=51347]@Alegandron[/USER], but the auction houses will hope you didn&#039;t read the terms before bidding.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
