Does anyone know a place in Los Angeles that sells magazine sleeves?  I have 
dozens of Vanity Fair Magazines I was to start listing on eBay.

Thanks,

Glenn

don't be silly Tommy. I'm happy to discuss anything with anyone. different 
viewpoints are great
however I fail to see any reason for you to call me an apologist for Heritage. 
We're discussing something here, I'm expressing my viewpoint and my viewpoint 
only. I haven't spoken to Grey about this thread and I have no idea if he's 
aware of it. 

but my points are all the same points I would make for any company or person. 
obviously, they see the need to raise the BP. I haven't asked why, but seeing 
as I know my biz costs only go in one direction, that would be my suspicion.

have fun.. bid or not with HA, maybe that means I might not have to clash with 
one other collector ; - )

Rich,

I've always enjoyed doing business with you so hope we're not going to fall out 
over this, but I don't really understand why you fell the need to be the 
apologist for HA. My original question was not about the BP per se, but about 
the increase from $14 to $19, and that's what I was seeking justification for. 
Anyway, midnight here in UK and I'm off to bed. I think this particular topic 
has just about run its distance. Night all.

why does he need to respond Tommy?

Those of you who don't like the BP can bid or not if you choose, HA isn't going 
to eliminate the BP because some people don't like it

so what comment would he make?

they have a BP. It's not a hidden cost. When I buy something, my only concern 
is getting it for a price I can deal with. Lately, because I'm largely winnowed 
down to needing the expensive or rare items, I'm having to deal with bigger 
prices and almost nothing I buy is under $100. in which case the bp means 
nothing to me, especially as I account for it when I'm bidding, always. I have 
a little paper chart next to the computer for the sig auctions so I can check 
it easily

the first time I ever bid in a live auction, I was confused by the BP. This 
would have been at a local auction to where I was living at the time. First 
time I bid at Christies in the 1980s, they had a BP. 

I've grown up paying BP.. 

if I don't want to pay the BP, I don't bid.

exactly what solution would you be expecting Grey to post for you?

Rich

Really? We know HA access this site as they promote their listings here, but he 
is so busy making money that he simply ignores a forum of collector/dealers, 
possibly some of his best clients, when his business model is being criticized, 
and that's not corporate arrogance?

unlike HA who have no outlay other than the cost of listing the item.

 

sorry Tommy, that is such a simplistic definition of the work involved in A) 
listing material for sale.. and B) being in business

I wish it was as simple as snapping my fingers, but first you have to gather 
(in HA's case) 500 posters

then you have to send them down to the photography dept

then they have to be individually catalogued

then the catalogued list needs to be converted or uploaded etc to the site

you have to promote the auctions

you have to answer the questions

then you have to have the orders pulled individually

you have to send them down to shipping

shipping has top package & post them

all that is just the A)

the B) is that you have to pay for your website, your rent, your lights.

you have to pay your employees, your software designer

you have to pay for all that advertising you do

I probably haven't even touched the surface

this is why I have fewer auctions, even when we work out the bugs on the new 
software - the labor is extensive and I have other stuff to do




as I said before, the silence from HA on this forum is quite deafening.

 

Grey doesn't have time to mess with the group. he's making money for his 
employer

Have read all comments I guess the overriding point is going to be one of cost. 
Like everyone, it costs the same to handle a $200 poster as it does a $20 and 
so rather than turn away business at the bottom end HA are are simply going to 
charge you for it - why shouldn't they? How many dealers sell posters for a $1, 
and are happy to do so? 

I bet there is very few, most would not even bother stocking a $1 poster let 
alone selling one. Try selling a poster on eBay for $1 - by the time eBay take 
their slice of the action, the cost of materials, your time what's left for 
you? 

For others who sell via their websites you probably already know you can set a 
minimum purchase value on the shopping cart - if you have set one then what's 
the difference between you and HA? 

It's expensive to sell stuff cheap.

Just noticed that from this weekend Heritage Auctions is charging a minimum 
buyer's commission of $19, an increase of 36%. I just wonder how they justify 
that?
