One auction house. Charges the Buyer 36% and charges the seller 22%
That is a total of 58% of the value of the item that goes to the auctioneer
They are getting so greedy especially for German stuff that you would be better off selling or trading your hard collected pieces to a dealer !!!!
SO CHECK THE AUCTIONEERS' RATES BEFORE YOU BID OR SELL. !!!!!
