Default Auction Houses-Going, Going..Gone?

Posted By: jay wolt

I don't see why any auction house would close its doors due to the economy.
They retain a % of the final sale from the buyer and often from the consignor.
So even if a card lot sells below their estimated value, they still get a %
of sales even though the consignor can lose his shirt.
So they still have positive $$$ rolling in.
