Any fears in selling large $ items on ebay?

I was thinking something similar - I was going to ask how much you would pay in eBay/PayPal fees and compare that with consigning the card/item(s). I think if you consign it though, you'd be looking at an auction whereas with eBay you could list a BIN if you wanted.

In my opinion though, there really is no such thing as ZERO sellers fee. I always calculate the Buyer's premium into my bid. For example, if I would bid $472 on eBay, I'd only bid $400 at an auction house to account for the 18% buyer's premium.
