Default What does your LHS charge to sell one of your planes?

Our LHS gets 20% of the selling price, which I think is rather steep, although I was lucky enough to sell one plane that way and get full asking price (-20%). I find it easier to just go down to the shop, hang up the plane and see if it sells, rather then trying to ship or do local pickup. Our hobby shop owner is also the club treasurer and I would think club members would at least get a discount to sell a plane in the shop. Maybe 10-15%? Thoughts?
