As someone else mentioned, the consignor and buyer premiums in our hobby/business are actually pretty low. Coins, Art, Exotic Hand bags, and many other items garner a 25% consignment fee AND 25% buyers fee.

Well okay, sure. I have a friend who sells my old Tommy Bahama shirts on consignment and gives me half. I guess baseball cards are a better deal than that.
But I can sell my house for 8% or my car for $200. I am amazed it is so expensive to sell a baseball card. With all the improvements in technology it is easier than ever to take a picture of a card, post it online and get views.
