Question
Will the donated items be subject to a consignment fee or just the buyer's premium?

Good question Chris--there will be no charge to anyone consigning the items...the BP will still be charged with those fees being added to the donation amount going to Kadence.

great idea
Brian- I will definitely donate something....
Something to consider, and the way these type auctions have been done before, is that everything was put into one lot. Then the whole lot and all BP was given to whatever cause it was going to. That way you don't spend a ton of time (time is money) on it and all of the proceeds go to the situation, including BP. Just a thought and a situation that has worked well in the past. Regardless of that I will be putting something in the mail for you in the next few days for this event. Good luck with it.

I have consigned all the T205's remaining from my set for this also. There is about 60+ cards all SGC graded in 4's and 5's. There are some very nice HOF'ers and hard to find commons, and SP's in there also.

Seems to me that all fees should be waived. If the auction house wants folks to give stuff for a good cause, then the auction house should be equally willing to give their time, effort, and materials. I sincerely think this is a worthy cause. But if it is good enough for folks to give their stuff 100%, then the auction house should belly up, too. If it's only half of a good cause, then the auction house would be collecting half of their fees, and the proceeds would be split 50/50 between the consignor and the benefactor.
So Brian, this might be a time to reconsider your fees... do what Leon suggested, bunch stuff into a manageable number of lots that you'll auction free. And I mean free. If I were to donate a card I'd think I'd pay the postage to get it to you. So you pay the postage to get the card to the auction winner, you don't dip into the proceeds to cover that.
