Quoted from Hoopjohn:
Auction Game Sales gets an "F" for not disclosing buyer fees or sales tax fees on there website. Frankly, there is no excuse for this type of shady practice. Not sure if the same rates for buyers are in effect. This was from 2011. Buyer fees at 2011 auctions were 13%. No mention of even higher fees if credit cards were used for payment. Somewhat of a common practice to add on an additional 2 - 3%. Current sales tax rate is 6.75%. Total 19.75%. (no credit card fees included)
TZ $5000 hammer $5987.50 total
FT $2450 hammer $2933.88 total
JY $3300 hammer $3951.75 total
CONDITION is everything.
Excellent/CQ condition = happy buyer
Players condition needing full shop (or more) = buyer feeling butthurt

When I went years ago before Rick passed away they were VERY clear about fees when you registered to get your buyer number. VERY CLEAR....
