Yes, the reputable auction houses are better than eBay on the whole. I'm willing to pay the vig at an auction house for them weeding out the trash and giving me options I just don't have on eBay, plus there is a level of trust with an AH. I've gotten great deals at AH and great deals on eBay, I've also overpaid at both places to acquire something. For example, I've been looking for a centered 58T Aaron yellow letter for a long time, EBay has nothing but shit to offer, either condition wise or price wise. I'm sure when I finally get one it will be from an AH.

It's interesting that Johnson sold for about the same price both times once you remove the AH premium. Unfortunately the seller got hammered coming in and going out for about a 30% loss.
