<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mark Feld, post: 329954, member: 11467&quot;]As I mentioned previously, the auction house has a 15% buyer&#039;s premium (as most major ones do these days), but it&#039;s 20% to go through Ebay. However, all you need to do is decide what what amount you are willing to bid for a coin and back out the buyer&#039;s premium.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>For example, let&#039;s say you&#039;re willing to pay up to $120 for a coin, but there is a 20% buyer&#039;s premium. Bid up to $100 hammer, instead of $120, so that after the 20% buyer&#039;s premium is added, you pay no more than your $120 maximum bid.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>When there is a 15% buyer&#039;s premium, figure out your maximum total bid and multiply it by .8696 to determine the amount to bid before the buyer&#039;s premium is added to the hammer price.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>When there is a 20% buyer&#039;s premium, multiply your maximum bid by .8334, instead.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And if you don&#039;t mind being off by a few cents or dollars, it&#039;s OK to use .87 and .83 for 15% and 20% buyer&#039;s premiums, respectively. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
