Hi Chuck, it is 25% on LiveAuctioneers, or 20% everywhere else (HiBid, phone bidding, in person etc)

I wonder why the difference between Hibid and LA? They are typically the same. The only differences I have found is the BP is always cheaper if the auction has their own site. Like Rock island or Richmond. You can bid for either of those auctions on Proxibid, LA or Hibid but it will cost you 3 to 5% more in BP. 🤷‍♂️

The only auctions I have been interested in are hammer auctions. Where you can look the auctioneer in the eye. When the hammer falls ….that is the price.

Most auctions have varying buyers premiums based upon how you pay for the items.  Credit cards and using operations like Proxybid will cost more.  Cash or checks are the cheapest ways to go.  You always need to read the fine print before bidding.
