See, I have absolutely no problem with people reusing boxes, at all. But in the same respect, if "you're" going to re-use packing material, then shouldn't shipping costs be closer to actual postage, as there really isn't a handling fee involved?
Again, the seller in question listed these items as in great condition. Where as I can agree that certain aspects of the figures are great, there's nothing that I can do with a figure who's o-ring I can't replace, like there would've been nothing I could've done with broken elbows if I did not have the apoxy. Yet again, I steer away from my rule of not dealing with people I don't know...and learn a lesson from it. |

i was burned for about 50 dollars in joes about 3 yrs ago under boobookittytoys. this guy took forever (over 30 days) to ship his stuff prior so i waited it out and by the time i realized i wasnt getting my items i was over my paypal limit and his account was suspended so i couldnt neg him. hes apiece of work. i spent hundreds of dollars with him and he shorted me. lost a lot of future buisness for sure.

So today I won 3 carded 25th figures from seller marilyng53 - Wave 5 Destro, Flash & Snow Job. When I requested a combined invoice, the Seller sent an invoice with a shipping cost of....ready for this?...
US $15.85 via PARCEL POST (BEFORE INSURANCE)!!!! from OH to MI! (neighboring states). I just sent an e-mail to the seller calling her out. Here's my message: Dear marilyng53, Mrs. Franks - I have received my invoice. Please advise as to how shipping will cost over $15.00 USD to ship via Parcel Post to a neighboring state, MI. Please note that no where in your listing does it state that shipping will be so astronomically high. This charge is only listed in your invoice, which violates eBay's terms & conditions. I am in no way trying to back out of our transaction, but as a seller myself, I know for a fact that shipping via Priority Mail with Insurance & Tracking for these three items wouldn't cost more than $6.25 (without handling). Please advise as I am quite concerned. Sincerely, Erick G. ------------------- I've already reported her to eBay for shipping gouging, which thankfully is no longer tolerated by eBay. I'll let everyone know how this one pans out. Chalk one up for impatience, as I should've just waited for my pre-order to come in rather than bid on these figs. |

Wow...this is RICH!
![]() "Shipping costs: US $5.95 (discount available)" This statement is taken directly from listing. You won 3 individual auctions. You were given 2 shipping discounts for winning multiple auctions. NO NEED TO EXPLAIN OUR "STATED" SHIPPING COSTS. If you didn't want to pay shipping costs, you shouldn't have bid on the auction(s). " Here's my response: "Ma'am, I'm not really sure why you're yelling, so I'd suggest you take it down a notch. Your auction listed shipping at $5.95. This has nothing to do with not wanting to pay shipping costs. Do you know how to use a shipping calculator? What about a scale? The package in question cannot/will not weigh more than 1 lb. The total, via USPS, regardless of whether or not it's Parcel or Priority would be less than $7.00 with Insurance. Let me guess though, the other $9.00 is for "handling", right? As for the refusal to explain, yeah, I can understand that. Why WOULD you want to explain an issue when a Customer has a concern? I would suggest you read eBay's stance on shipping gouging: http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/listing-shipping.html" So, bottom line...STAY AWAY from marilyng53!!! SHIPPING GOUGER!!! |

Thanks, man. What this Lady doesn't realize is her response clearly indicates that she's violating eBay Terms (ie - Misleading/deceptive). To say that shipping is $5.95, and that multiple items won are entitled to a shipping discount means the price should be LOWER...
Eh, at the end of the day, she's lost a paying customer, so I hope the extra shipping fluff is worth it. |

Yes, Apac, as friggin' always, I didn't take your advice and YET AGAIN, get bit right on the ass for it.
For now on, I'm going to call you with any purchasing plans and get approval PRIOR to making purchases lol ![]() Now the game begins. When will she ship my items? Will eBay follow their own literature and hand this lady a smack down? Only time will tell. |
