I don't see any names in that post and I understand they may be countless but could you name maybe...two?

$29 minimum fee seems nuts...

I think it's absolutely wrong to charge tax on the premiums, fees, handling, and postage. Hell's Bells, the USPS doesn't charge tax on stamps!

$12.83 for handling and service? That's crap service, and they should have handled the card a lot less.


Maybe, instead of offering several common cards in one lot and getting one premium and one handling fee, they break them down into single card lots. That way the consigner maybe gets the same money, or close; and the auction house gets a pile of handling fee money. A bit like a gigolo, they service you and you pay for it.

Let's wait for Ken and Rob to tell us how much their auction houses are making.

Heritage had 1/7th of Ebays revenue in 2021...1.4 Billion vs 10.4 Billion. But Ebay is 20+ times the size of Heritage. Feels like those numbers don't align to me.

REA, as much as I love them, quoted me a seller's consignment fee. Therefore, I took my almost $10,000 card elsewhere.
