Now yes, you could argue that some people would bid low taking into account the premium that gets added (that&#039;s how I do all my accumulating, bidding so the total cost (item, premium, tax, shipping) comes in under spot.) However, I make thousands of bids and actually win very few due to my methodology, so the vast majority of items go for more than &#039;spot&#039;. And not to argue semantics, but if I go and bid $10 on a 90% franklin and win, I pay the $10 +&quot;x&quot;% premium +the taxes (if any), and the shipping (if any). None of that $10 goes anywhere but to the seller.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
