I totally agree, double standards, big fish little fish etc etc
(see parts of two related posts below for wot I am on about!)
Plus I have a quick question to do with autions, buyers premium!
I am I right in saying:
1/ The person selling the poster through the aution gives a % to
the auction house
2/ The person buying the poster from the auction house pays a %
ontop of there bid to the auction house
Is this correct? Could someone outline the complete transaction of
one poster from start to finish and where the money goes... you can
do this privately if this is something everyone knows.
All the best.

2) Apparently if I bid on the item directly on the Heritage website, I pay
a buyer's premium of 15%. But if I place my bid on one of their items
through eBay, I pay a buyer's premium of 20%. No explanation given for the
difference. That's just the way it is. What they are doing, of course, is
charging me the extra 5% to pay for their eBay listing.
... y'know, one time on my auctions I said that those who paid with PayPal
would have to pay 2% extra to cover half of the 4% PayPal charges me for
taking PayPal payments. When I did that, eBay TERMINATED my auctions less
than 12 hours after I posted them and sent me a stern warning that I was
NOT ALLOWED to charge any extra percentage to cover my eBay or PayPal
fees. But I guess Heritage gets a special deal from them. Rank has it
privileges...

2. Ebay charges us 5% of the hammer price in order to be able to post lots
through Ebay Live. In order to be able to afford to provide this service, we
must pass on this cost to the bidder.
