Fees and taxes

When you win an auction, the total amount you pay may consist of three parts:

  1. Hammer price (your winning bid)

  2. Buyer’s Protection Fee

  3. Shipping and/or import taxes (if applicable)

Buyer’s Protection Fee (10%)

For every winning bid, a Buyer’s Protection Fee of 10% applies on top of the hammer price. This fee covers authentication, secure payment handling and customer support throughout the process.
