I'm sure it's not beneficial to the AH, since people may forget about the premium and bid more than they originally intended. But it does say something for the integrity of the site.
If people don't know the buyer's premium, they shouldn't be bidding. It isn't very hard to multiply by 1.2 or whatever.

I always look up the premium before I bid, just saying it's helpful when listed while bidding. And I'm sure there have been people who forgot to take it into consideration.

It must have been Heritage where I saw that.

I think what we were saying is that we appreciate the feature - the more transparency the better. By your reasoning, why put the buyer's premium on the web at all - it isn't very hard to pick up the phone and call and ask.
