<p>[QUOTE=&quot;900fine, post: 220807, member: 6036&quot;]I&#039;ve often thought that this depresses the value for the <b>seller</b>; they wind up 15% short, since almost everyone drops back 15% and bids accordingly. Then the auction house takes ~6%, and the seller&#039;s cut is back even further.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In other words, the true market price is the total price (bid plus bidder&#039;s premium), so the seller is getting 15% less than market price - then taking a 6% hit for auction fees.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What do y&#039;all think ?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And yes... Heritage does have the goods. Great window shopping !</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Since a good way to learn to grade is to look at as many coins as possible, I use their catalogues - great photography. I use &#039;em kinda like Photograde.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>True, photos aren&#039;t as good as holding &#039;em in your hand, but I can&#039;t hit as many coin shows as I would like, and there aren&#039;t many local dealers with good stuff.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
