Some AH's will even give you an extra few points back!! They need stuff to sell. A Green Cobbie will be a featured item and will draw more bidders who will find other stuff to bid on!

There's no buyer's premium on ebay ....
Saying that, a consignor usually wants to find the auction house or consignment shop that they believe will give their items the most visibility, the right buyers, and the auction ending type they believe will bring the highest price for them. There are also other factors such as the service of the AH, the payout speed, and other perks such as cash advances, discounted grading, etc.
