Seller cites sale history but omits most recent--this past Feb 28 at Kelleher Sale 711, Lot 1617 (hammered at $750, well below suggested minimum bid of $1000).
A Kelleher hammer of $750 would equate to a $885 cost with the 18% buyer fee added (disregarding shipping cost), so the suggested minimum bid of $1,000 represents a 13% dealer profit, which does not seem unreasonable to me.
