I seem to remember Lew Lipset in one of his The Old Judge newsletters bemoaning the trend of auction houses switching from a system of charging only the consigner a premium to also charging a buyer's premium, something that was only common in the art world(?...might be remembering this part incorrectly). His newsletters were issued from the mid-1980's to early 1990's, so I think that this indicates that our hobby's auction houses started to make the shift during this time frame.
