  1. The Buyers premium is defiantly a consideration for both the buyer and seller.  I try to get an idea on what a item is worth when I am considering cosigning the item as a seller,

    I then figure out what I could make if use the Auction house/ebay(seller fees) if the marble sells at the high end of my value estimate. 

    If I can get any more for the marble in a private sale after the fees I will happily sell the marble for less and make more than if I would have Cosigned or ebayed the item.

    On the buying side I always consider the BP in my value/high bid on an Item

    I understand the Auctions needing to make money but getting a huge premium on both sides of the sale only benefits them not the buyer or the seller.on

    Just my thoughts on BP's

    Also some of these Auction houses also gouge on Shipping and Handling. 

    I purchased a $700 lot of marbles from Morphy's got charged 30+ for shipping and the marbles were rattling around the box when delivered.

    Thanks

  3. I have 1 of the Claudia Patches at 1 1/8th

    Bought it from Bill Bass at one of the marble shows (Madison, Decatur?)

    It was very reasonable.

    I also have a Orange and Blue Corkscrew at 63/64 on the largest side (out of round like most of these bigger Akro's are.)

    Nice marbles nice to have in the collection.
