Basically I get to tell people that at our 17.5% it's like they're already getting 5% of the BP because we don't charge it in the first place.

Like almost everything else I try to explain it gets a lot of blank stares. That's why the simplicity of telling the consignors you're charging them less, or giving them more of the BP, is so much more effective, as illustrated in my examples above.
