Twanj Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 @Micah S., what determines if a lot has 15% buyer's premium added? I noticed it's not across the board but don't see the pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed it's not across the board but don't see the pattern. The buyer's premium is up to the particular deal with each consignor, some want it, some don't. Sorry if it causes any confusion.

MOStateSuperman Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 On 5/17/2022 at 11:10 AM, J.Sid said: Can you elaborate? Not much to say. I won a handful of items in the March auction that have yet to ship. The team is always quick to respond and I have no doubt they will get the items out, but logistics is where things tend to fall apart with ComicConnect. I have had orders go flawlessly and orders with a missing house number. Some show up days after an auction ends, and some aren't shipped two months later. It hasn't stopped me from doing business with them, but it's always something to take into account. Twanj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah S. Posted May 19, 2022 Author Share Posted May 19, 2022 On 5/16/2022 at 9:30 PM, J.Sid said: There is currently an ongoing negotiation over ownership of the 2 Miller pieces, we felt that the best thing to do was to pull the pieces from the auction until the issue is resolved. We apologize to any collectors who were looking forward to bidding on these incredible pieces and hope to be able to offer them soon.
