For larger purchases from these auction houses I will go to the bank and transfer funds to save the 3%. If the fee isn't worth my time I will just pay it.

He called some companies into question, no doubt. Great articles....

As the original poster, I would say my post (1) was frustration, trying to be humorous and (2) not aimed at one AH at all. More just my general sense in having dealt with a bunch of them. Despite some ridiculous rules (what's the 10 day check hold for? Am I going to claw money back out of your corporate account somehow after the check clears?), most of my experiences have been good. They are running a business, I get it.

(PS. If you are going to tack on a surcharge for a credit card, give me a discount if I pay promptly by check. I know at least one of them does, and it's a nice touch.)
