I agree completely. When bidding on a 5k item from an auction hosue I always think to myself that I am paying 6k.....I can't imagine auction houses going much more than 20% as they will lose consignments....Their percentages are absolutely market driven if you really think about it. If no one will consign at 22% then they will have to be lower.....if no one will consign at 20% they will have to be lower (though this looks like the top thresh hold right now).. I think after it's all said and done you will be about 6%-8% cost selling on ebay....so there is a 12%-14% delta to the auction house. Recently I would have done better consigning a few items to Mastro, or another auction hosue, than doing ebay, I am sure....Ebay seems to be good for the more common stuff but the exotic stuff does better at boutique auction houses...again, all imho.....and from my perspective... |
