Just checked their website and cannot easily find out what their fees are for the consignor. Anyone know? What about buyer's fees?

    17.5 % buyers fee. Sellers fee negotiable depending on value of what you are selling. Sometimes Dealers can get you a better fee, as in 102% of hammer, for example.

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    Except for political items were the buyers' fee is 25%. :/ Some of the bidders bid as if it's not even there. It makes it very hard to buy political items from Heritage.

    .
    consignor general fee structure via a recent email.

    "Our standard seller’s commission would be 10% of the hammer price for our live Signature Auctions or 15% of the hammer price for our weekly internet auctions. This includes photography, cataloging, and insurance with no other hidden fees."

    "After an auction takes place, we mail checks to each consignor on the settlement date, which is always 45 days after each sale."

    better fee structures do exist, for a few diff. reasons. as prev. stated.

    "We have a $5,000 minimum auction consignment value." - can be cumulative from multiple coins, or one.
