i've never understood the complaints about buyer's fees. I presume everyone always factors that into the bidding--and the items usually sell for less than they would at eBay because of that--until fee is added. In other words, the same card might go for 420 at eBay but at an auction it would go for 350 plus 70 for the fee. Same difference. And VCP and others always include the buyer's fee in the price that card got. So again: 420 either way. If I see a card that seems to be worth about 420 I might set 350 as the limit--and know most others will do the same.

Generally.

Auctions also can appeal because you sometimes gets a dozen cards from the same issue that you may be interested in and can bid on them all, to a point, and jump from one to another, which you can't do in one-shot purchase.
