Depending on the amount of consignments, you should not have to pay a consigners fee and if you consign enough stuff, ask for a percentage of the buyers fee paid to you. Plus, AHs will pay for grading many times. It's also good to have them allow you to read the auction description of your consignments before they get posted.
Many other things can be negotiated to like catalog placement, reserves, lot groupings, the size used in the catalog (quarter, half, or full page) and maybe even a cover.

"How bout a Sea Story!?"
When i was iN the Submarine Navy,
I was known ta be a "Sea Lawyer"
We were few & far apart...
i Help'd other Sub Sailors Re-Negotiate Their Contracts
Due to Their Career Counselor "Miscounseling" Them.
i help'd many "BubbleHeads" recouped Ovar $300,000 iN about 10 year time frame...
Unfortunately wit Cards & AH's,
There's No Miscounseling...
JuST "Lessons Learned"!
Next Time, i'm Sure the Numbers Will Go Your Way ~
