As explained on the board a gazillion times, most AHs will waive a sellers commission for a decent piece. So they have to make their nut somewhere. And that’s called the buyers commission. I know a bunch of good dudes who run AHs, and none of them are running not for profit charities.
Allowing the AH to get a piece of the selling price also serves a smart economic function of incentivizing them to promote. If it was just “hey, pay me $200 if I sell your item, we’ll that wouldn’t get the juices flowing from the promotional side of things.
