Jim_M 178 #28 Posted January 11, 2008 There's a prime example of excessive shipping charges on eBay right now. A parts manual for GT-14 for $7.95 with a shipping charge of $8.95. It would ship in a 50 cent envelope with $1.50 worth of stamps. I e mailed the guy and asked him politely if the $8.95 shipping was a typo. I copied and pasted his response below. Hi, No typo, part of the price of the item is incorporated into the shipping. It would be going Priority mail. If you were to purchase more than one manual the shipping would only be the $8.95 for all of the manuals. Thanks At least he's being honest about being dishonest!

Greg B. 1 #29 Posted January 12, 2008 EBAY isn't an option in our house. I have a sister-in-law that makes a pretty good supplemental income by bidding up her own antique offerings. She doesn't feel bad about it and says that everyone does it. Given her attitude, I just stay away from the place. Greg B. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CasualObserver 3,408 #30 Posted January 12, 2008 Until someone catches her and reports her for "schill bidding." Ebay has a zero tolerance policy on that. I have a family member who was banned from ebay for it. I wouldn't broadcast that anymore... just my advice, because she's wrong...not everyone does it. (not that I'm naive enough to think it doesn't happen though either!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
