god503 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Man that 3% buyer premium really stings.... lol. Not to mention the automatic sales tax. A big savings from eBay turned into a slight discount... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah you should see that 3% not be applied upon checkout if you choose one of those options as I recall. At least you know going forward 🙂.

A big savings from eBay turned into a slight discount... I haven't bought from Clink in about a year, but I don't think the sales tax hits all states. I didn't pay tax with them or ComicConnect (purchased something from them last week). And yes, with both, you can avoid the 3% with check or MO.

They also charge you 2.5% if you would like to use a credit card. Book still hasn't shipped either.

Motor City Rob Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 ComicLink is my favorite by far. Website is very easy to navigate. Comic Connect is next for me. Heritage is awful. Auctions are extremely confusing with the format and the buyer's premium just makes it even more confusing. At least with ComLink and Comic Connect you can avoid those fees. In the end, as long as you know what your bid will cost, you are still in control of how much you will spend with any auction house. ComicLink is just much easier. Plus, they ship the books so quickly. Love it. LDarkseid1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BanjerD Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Another plus for ComicLink is that you can purchase items with "seller credit" if you have items selling on their site. god503 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigLeagueCHEW Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 So eBay is the place that doesn't cost both parties a large premium besides the boards, FB, and Instagram? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
