<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GregH, post: 2931577, member: 75936&quot;]All good points. In terms of interface - if bidder’s shipping country is known, then applicable customs fee is known. </p><p><br /></p><p>As for shipping method - usually places like CNG don’t give me a choice. It’s insured/registered international courier and I don’t find out the price until I get my invoice. The prices aren’t listed on the site. It should be very clear how much shipping is - as it is on eBay. This one should be a quick-win fix.</p><p><br /></p><p>In terms of structure - simplicity is the best experience. If the auction house’s cut is 20%, then so it is, but the buyer doesn’t need to know that. The hammer price should be the buyer’s price: with the shipping price - transparent and clear - added, same as everywhere else.</p><p><br /></p><p>Is this a viable business? Well, it needs research. My assumption is people will bid more money if there is no buyer fee, and all the costs are clear. People will participate more if there are fewer barriers to participation - ie, once CNG or Roma have accepted you and your references, this should be good enough for everyone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
