5% is an insanely low auctioneer's fee. Is that for really high-ticket items only? The place I usually buy from in the US, it's 22%, and while that's on the high end, I don't think I've ever seen less than 15%. These are largely items in the $500-$5000 range, with a few in the $5-20k range and occasional big-ticket items going for a bit over $100k.
