My point was that using Ebay you will pay 15% perhaps even 20% in fees and perhaps not be marketing your item to the best crowd, either in terms of quality of bidders or visibility of items.

Using a Zero sellers fee auction house there is always the discounted buyers premium which will affect exactly how much you net. However, you won't have to deal with non paying bidders, and will be reasonably sure the most serious collectors/buyers saw your item and were involved in the bidding. Many collectors no longer use Ebay do the large amount of crap that you have to sort thru to find the few quality items.

So I will stand behind my statement that you will probably fare better in any quality AH rather than Ebay if you are selling 4 or 5 figure items.
