I really like the ones that have a item for a buck and then have the shipping at anywhere from 20 to 50 bucks. You have to watch not to do the buy before reading bid.

I understand where thread starter is coming from.
When someone says one amount then changes it that is lame. BUT For anybody still pissed about this: Buyers should be smart enough to add the amounts before Bidding. Take a Look.... 2 sellers have the SAME item for sale. Seller 1 wants 5.00 for shipping/handling Seller 2 Wants 10.00 for shipping/handling Seller 1 auction ends at 10.00 Seller 2 auction ends at 5.00 The 2 people who won these auctions PAYED THE EXACT SAME TOTAL PRICE. So What is the problem for the Buyer ? IN THE END YOU DECIDE what you are willing to pay. Lets Try to Keep it positive guys. YOOOOOOOOOO JOE! It's Funny that people are mad about something so simple. Please Read Above. Maybe Your anger and unhappiness will fade.

I just sold a sunroof from a 240sx to a guy in Bellingham (2hrs from where I live). It was a pain in the butt packing the thing and I used 2 rolls of tape. The shipping ended up being $13.50... I charged him 15. I had $6 just in tape and an hour packing it... I don't mind taking a little hit on some things at times.

It's still not brain surgery here. People will sell the item (Shipping aswell) for whatever they feel like selling it for. Some people may ask for ridiculous amounts of money and they usually end up scaring people away, while others may see the long term benefit of keeping their prices down so people come to them first for future needs. Either way, it's their choice. Our choice is how much we are willing to pay.

I couldn't have said it better myself. No buyer is entitled to a better price, and the seller shouldn't be obligated to charge more or less for any particular service or item. It's a free market, and if you don't like the price (and/or shipping cost), don't buy it. It's literally as simple as that. Asking for anything else is simply narcissism and/or socialism.

To ship something, it is getting more and more expensive, and you have to factor in shipping materials as well as insurance and delivery confirmation.
eBay lowered the insertion fees, but they raised the final value fees. It never hurts to message the seller before you bid to see if he can come down on the shipping price. Also, buyers can still leave negative feedback. You just have to submit it as positive feedback but you can still write anything you want |

i may be a little expensive on my shipping on ebay but thats because paypal demands tracking and i use only priority . i say charges up front. Its sucks because i have to factor in packing material, gas to drive to post office, and time.
International buyers do not understand that sellers have to use priority for tracking. I got ripped of by buyers "claiming" non receipt so its only priority now. =( |

You can get boxes free from post office or the usps website I also find good boxes at the dollar tree and free newspapers to pack with there and the local newspaper place. You can also get bubblers at the dollar tree 2 for $1. My post office loves me i come in had them the box and it is on it's way. I also print shipping labels on paypal to save money. I am just trying to save you some time and out of pocket money
