raidenradio Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I once bid on a record and noticed the record had $40 shipping. I emailed the guy saying to withdraw my bid cause I'm not paying $40 and he messaged me back and told me it was only $40 to EU and that it was only $20 for the US. He said I should if I win I should just paypal him the $40 and he would sent back the $20. wtf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewmatic Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I ordered 3 records from someone on ebay whose shipping prices were the following: 4 bucks for 1 record, 2 bucks for every one after. So it was $8 to ship 3 records media mail. When the records came the postage was printed on the package as $3.55. I understand I bought this knowing what price I was paying for shipping but its a pretty cheap way to make more money off your record.

It's called shipping and handling - he was charging you $2 to handle each additional record. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
user456 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 While looking for a new Blackberry on ebay I came across one that was .99. The shipping was 199.99. Ebay is full of tricksters . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmyg Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 His auction, he can charge what he likes. Might come in a wool lined, hand-crafted wooden box for all you know! That's how you get more money, bump up the shipping a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
