All those who adjust their bid's according to fee's etc., do you include shipping costs also?
I personally don't worry about shipping cost. It's usually small enough to not be a significant portion of the cost. "Cost of the hobby".
And I'm kind of flexible on sales tax. The higher the price, the more I consider it. But if I REALLY want the coin, I might ignore it under the theory that I have to compete with people who DON'T have to pay, so I might have to eat the tax to be competitive.
Offhand, Does the PCGS price guide values include the BP? I ask because, if not, a newcomer who likely doesn't know will get outbid every time. Heritage includes the BP when showing final prices........what did the coin sell for again?

The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

fee to purchase an item?? And yet, people put up with it.... Well, my money means more to me
than any particular item....Until people start voting with their feet, this will continue...and if one house is successful raising fees, others will follow...Cheers, RickO

That or raise the commish. I doubt that Heritage could survive on 10% commission alone. I think 28% commission would be a real turnoff to consignors.

Cots? There must be a forum for cots, somewhere.
Apricots, monocots, dicots.
