It widely known and even advertised by the auction houses that consignors can pay different consignment percentages-- for example, a lower fee if a consignor is offering a $500,000 collection or that one of a kind Babe Ruth jersey. Anyone posting here who happily accepted, and even insisted upon in negotation, a discount consignment rate from an auction house should be the last to complain about some other person's deal, like someone being able to pay with credit cards for massive and regular purchases.

Many eBay sellers offer to combine or even offer no shipping cost if multiple lots are won. Isn't that a special discount offered only to buyers who buy in bulk? Perhaps, eBay should ban this unfair practice.

Yes, it is true that if you don't count the special favors and personal discounts you recieve, it's only other people who get speicial favors and personal discounts.
