Hi Val,
Thanks for your comment. I had not heard of a case of that happening, but I imagine on some high-end items the seller might try to cut a deal like that. I'd say if I had a T206 Wagner to consign, I'd try to haggle the auction houses into the best deal I could get (including a piece of the BP).
But at the level I play at, I wouldn't even try to swing such a deal
.
Cheers,
Blair
