Whenever I've purchased insurance via a PayPal label, it is included in the postage total that appears on the label. It could be different for buying postage in person or via another service like Stamps.com though.
My hunch from what you've provided and my own years of selling and buying records is that the person was trying to avoid losing money on shipping internationally, which can honestly vary wildly in cost depending on where you buy postage, what level of tracking you want, and how heavy the package ends up being, so they chose to charge super high to cover all their bases. Then, when you agreed to pay that much, in their mind, it seemed like the extra $9 was their money/profit now and they decided to be a bit immature and only give you $5 back with a flimsy excuse.
Thanks man, that's what I'm thinking too, but if they overcharged they should just admit and then refund when pointed out. If it was just scamming me out of $4, I'd let it go, but not right after already keeping a full $9 overcharge - even if to protect themselves from undercharging shipping.
To clarify, they paid for postage at the post office and not via PayPal and the postage label says "amount $16"... not sure why USPS would hide $4 insurance and not include that on the label?
I don't want to be a dick to them if i'm incorrect so if anyone else can shed some light, it'd be appreciated.

Only read the last few pages, but this thread is off the hook wackiness!

Question about USPS. A package from US to Canada I received has the cost of $16.00 clearly marked on the postage. IF the sender bought additional insurance for $4, would it have shown up on the label? Meaning, if they paid $20 ($16 + $4 insurance), would the package that I received in Canada only show $16 on the label?
Reason being, I paid $25 shipping for 1LP and when I asked about why I was charged an additional $9 ($16+$9=$25), I was sent a refund only $5 and told the sender bought insurance for an additional $4 that is above the $16 noted on the shipping label.
Small potatoes, I know, but the seller seemed to already try to scam an extra $9 USD and I don't want to be tricked into letting him take the additional $4 if he is going to be shady like that.
Any clarification is appreciated and will be rewarded with LIKES!!! Thanks peeps.

Am I the only one who thought this album started off strong and then kinda withered into mediocrity?
Had a quick listen through and I wasn’t overly impressed but gonna give it a few more tries.

If you're reading this Topshelf.... 3 single LPs to Canada should not cost $37.50 shipping. Sadly, I just can't order from you guys any more.

Trailer sounds more like I was expecting. Wanted to get this despite the lead track, but not with these shipping rates. Its a shame when companies can't adjust their cart shipping rates properly. It shouldn't cost $41 US bucks to ship 3 single LPs to Canada. Hope you guys score a pinwheel or whatever u like.
Shipping to Canada:
1LP = 19
2LP = 28
3LP = 41

A number of years back, when El Cielo came out I think one of the band members or a close friend posted here. Hopefully they are still around to hear our thoughts.

Got excited until I saw the price... can be found on eBay or Discogs for cheaper.

Was test press out of 50? I tried to add 8 to my cart shortly after the link was posted and said only 3 were available.
It said 46 when i checked... purely speculation about 50. Sorry for any confusion.

Looks like test press /50, green vinyl /4000?

By “1st pressing”, they mean 1st pressing after the 1991 pressing and also after the 20th anniversary 2011 pressing, of course.
You can never have too many first pressings.

Thanks to everyone for the replies, especially this one! I'd decided to let it go anyways, but now there will be no nagging resentment for feeling like a 'sukka'.
Also thanks for helping me not make an ass out of myself... i do a good enough job as is. Have a great weekend!
