They all try for commissions, but in this market and with BPs that often exceed 20% of the hammer price there is no need to consign to an AH that will not eliminate it, provided your items are halfway decent.
Your alternative is to retail the items yourself, with the understanding that in addition to the time and effort you will have to put into the endeavor, you will pay about 13% between eBay and PayPal to sell. A private sale is often the best way to avoid transaction costs (especially if you refuse to accept PayPal) provided that you have some idea of what your items are worth and someone wants them at that price point.
