<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Asher, post: 8447834, member: 80285&quot;]I can spend many hours just browsing through their current and previous auctions. They are certainly 100% reputable but there&#039;s one major issue at least for me. The &quot;Buyer&#039;s Premium&quot;. Here is their quote:</p><p><br /></p><blockquote><p><span style="color: #808080">BP - Buyer&#039;s Premium per Lot</span></p><p><span style="color: #808080">A Buyer&#039;s Premium will be added to each successful bid. For this sale: 20% of the successful bid (minimum $29) per lot. Please see #2 in our Terms &amp; Conditions.</span></p><p><br /></p></blockquote><p>So if I win a bid for $80, it&#039;s really $109. So the total price is what I need to use for eBay/retail comps. Is this how dealers see it? I mean, you can say wow, I got a coin for $80 that I can sell in my store for $100...but it cost me $109! In a real case, would the coin be sold for retail at $120? This whole auction + buyer&#039;s premium is making me think that retail coin shops have very low profit margin.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m participating in the August 2nd-3rd auction and I&#039;ll post my results after that. I&#039;m not giving away what I&#039;m bidding on right now![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
