US EBay Postage Logic!

[Trey]

This guy has a DRob 1/1 Im gonna have a crack, then I saw the postage! $17US! SO I asked the guy why is it so high...

Hi,
Although the S/H cost stated on this auction may not be the actual cost of postage to ship your item, it includes packaging material, labor and other overhead that may be required ie paper, ink. International orders must be hand delivered to the post office counter. I can process a international malier at $9.50 Padded envelope for product protection $1.00 labor required to send to the post office $4.00 to $10.00 $7.00 Avg. I am more than happy to ship international as long as my costs are fairly covered

now Im paying for the guys ink and paper! Why doesnt he charge an hourly rate then! ****en asswipe...Im so close to emailing him back saying how I really feel, but I'll hopefully win the card, pay his outrageously high shipping cost and neg him and paypal claim!

go for it Trey, he deserves it

and youll get a nice drob 1/1 as well!

ive replied to let him know two of the biggest robinson collectors are overseas, so both of us will take his stupid shipping price into consideration in our final bids, which will negatively impact his final auction price.

 

[The Truth]

That's the way to do it Trey, some of them are just plain pricks and thoroughly deserve what's coming to them

Nah Trey win it and neg him! Who cares about a retaliation neg? Hehe. That's just plain stupid his logic. I hope he loses a lot of money this week for some strange reason like someone hacking his super annuation account or something.. ok.

man, those mongs need to factor that into the sale price. i mean, when i sell my food, i factor my electricity, water, gas into the final price.
the same should apply for shipping, u charge the amount of the shipping, and thats it, maybe for the box or special mailer, but thats it. u dont start charging for stupid crap like ur time, and ink and paper, those r incidentals that occur in teh normal process of doing business.
i hate to see what else he does, start charging his friends for wasting his time? morons need to die

 

[Trey]

its funny because "sending" the item is part of the sell...like I buy it, he MUST send it to me.
lets not factor in the time the buyer has had to invest in bidding etc...its just a joke how he's gone about it, he's also got a lebron 1/1 and the international shipping is 27US for international!

 

[yellows2k]

just seems like he is working his "end" into the margins with the card and the shipping, its just that he isnt subtle about it

Is it just a co-incidence his "end" is on very rare "high-end" cards?? [-X

 

[Richo]

That's BS Trey, what a W*nker, can't believ the crap that spews out of some peoples mouths !

 

[Trey]

Its a pretty tough decision....

1/1 of the player you collect

but the seller's a total D*@K!!!

See what it is going for... If its pretty cheap towards the end go for it....

 

[The Truth]

I wouldn't go for it, that'll mean he gets a lower price, serves him right!

 

[Dream34]

Don't bid on it and then when it's all finished tell him you would have paid $15 above what it went for but his postage rip off made you change your mind, as it could have inspired him to overcharge again.

 

[Trey]

im going to retract my bid, which will drop it in price hehehe

 

[cliffy21]

no no mate.. don't say you were going to bid $15 more... say $30 more that will get him cursing
