I'm not looking at a percentage back from the buyer's premium, but consignor's paying a seller's premium, with this many auction houses to choose from, is ridiculous. For consignor's that DO pay it, that means the auction house is getting 30% (maybe more) off YOUR consignment. 20% from the buyer and 10% (at least) from you. That is too much, IMHO.
