This is ridiculous, is it really that hard to layout out a net return chart for potential customers.
Your items sells for 750 - 999.000 with buyers premium, you the buyer get .75 - .99 for that consigned item. ----- Original Message ----- From: "peter contarino" <[email protected]> To: "MoPo-L" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, June 10, 2023 3:34:52 PM Subject: Re: [MOPO] Heritage fees Hi Helmut, Well I did get a perfunctory email, albeit no mention of how the BP affects the final seller's net: . Hi Peter, I believe your question was already answered. Consignment rates vary depending on category and auction format. Heritage sells over 40 categories of collectibles, all with very different markets. As with every other auction venue, the seller’s fee (expressed as a percentage of hammer) is deducted from the hammer price (winning bid amount) realized by a lot. The seller’s fee is agreed to and memorialized in a consignment contract. If the seller’s fee was 25% of hammer for a lot that sells for $1000 or less, the seller would net $37.50. I’ve shown you where to locate buyer’s premium information for each auction. Any bid you place on the website will tell you what the resultant purchase price would be if you were to win the auction at that bid amount.
