They effectively mixing ebay with traditional auction house, adding a buyers premium, and requiring in-person pickup (in Washington State) to boot??!
You don't see many of these kind of auctions anymore on eBay. Lesser BP if you register direct with the auction house and bid direct. Then the biggest kicker is when you win something you have to deal with a separate shipper. They normally mark up the cost as they are doing it as a middleman, and is making a profit for their service.
