Every AH I bid in charges sales tax in Maryland. So for me, ebay and AHs are apples to apples as far as that goes.

And Tony, I respectfully disagree with your analysis. Nobody bidding on a 1914 CJ Jackson, Matty, or Cobb ignores/forgets the 20% Buyer's Premium.

The bottom line is those 3 cards shit the bed last night. Period, full stop.

Now we will see in a few weeks (when Heritage ends) whether it was Ebay/Probstein or the economy

I wasn't stating that bidders ignore or forget the auction house BP.

I was only stating that the last price posted on pricing platforms such as VCP which so many reference as gospel include BP in their final price which is captured if sold through an AH. These cards last night didn't have that 20% buffer added on top of their final price.

That was all. Nothing more, nothing less.
