You didn't win for 50 dollars, you won for 50 plus the buyer's premium, which you knew was going to be added and therefore was part of the price. The only significance of the 50 is that is the consignor's take.

Out the auction house. Are you maybe thinking that by doing so you can`t go back, that maybe you can talk their prices down, or what?
A similar situation happened to me a year or so back with Heritage. Call me naive, uninformed, whatever, but their total cost took me by surprise. Felt duped. It was not my first purchase with them. I would say it's my last but you never know. What I will say is any bids I make will take their pumped up costs into my bid. And will be a consideration if and when I have items to consign.

It's very clear, in fact it appears everywhere, that the minimum BP is $14.00.
I'd be willing to bet that $50 wasn't your max bid. If you had won it for $60 or $70 and still paid $76 then you would be here telling us what a bargain the AH was |
