Here is my query: Why would a consignor go to PWCC with, say, a PSA5 T206 Cobb Green and pay a scheduled fee when he/she could take it to a national AH and pay nothing?
How do you figure they are paying nothing? Unless the AH is going to kick back some or all of the buyer's premium, they are of course paying via a reduced hammer price attributable to the BP.
