I've sold houses using discounted brokers and he hates that. He said that buyer agents will dissuade buyers from looking at houses offering less than "standard 3%" to the listing agent (another protectionist tactic).
I countered that I don't care. In this day and age buyers are savvy enough to jump on Zillow and Redfin and find my house, and they will demand they see it. If I hired a buyer agent and they tried to talk me out of showing a house over a commission I'd fire them right there.
