At the most generic level, yeah kind of. There's also a fee that comes out of the sale price that goes to the AH. Never consigned with one, but the experts will tell you it's all negotiable and the better your items the more leverage you have. I will say, an AH with a 14% BP would be quite the find. Most are 20% plus.
