<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1338091, member: 66&quot;]You think that is bad, I bid in auctions in Britain and I am quite glad I don&#039;t live over there.&nbsp; First you have a <b>20%</b> buyers fee.&nbsp; Shipping is quite expensive.&nbsp; My last purchase was three lots worth about $800 which were shipped in a 6X9 bubble mailer at a cost of $36 plus $7.50 for insurance.&nbsp; So I&#039;m up to 25% right there.&nbsp; But if I lived in the EU there would have been an additional 15% Vat tax as well.&nbsp; So that is 40% of the hammer price in fees if you live in the EU.&nbsp; I start out with a 15% advantage.</p><p><br /></p><p>The third party shipping is probably for large bulky items like say an antique dresser.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
