Really? loses money? outside source = WTF?

Any buyers premium paid out by the auction house to itself would be a profit to the auction house sales division in one column of the books and a loss to the buying division in another column.

You need not be an certified accountant to figure that one out.

The auction house is always in a better position to make money on any one item because they purchased at a discount.
