My main point is that when I wanted to apply this logic with my auction house consignments over the past few years, the auction houses basically all refused to start my lots at much above 25% - 30% of market value. Just when I have finally accepted that it is the way of doing business on that forum, now things seem to have changed to the consignors advantage when I am in more of a buying mode.
As I mentioned, the Speaker is a probably a better example than the Cobb.
