Oh, and it involves you being a fucking tough guy, d-bag. Complaining and carping because in your dumba** mind I was posting too much for a new guy. And you obviously thought I would be 'frightened' of you. So I specifically asked you where you live so maybe we could have a little meet up. Because if you were anywhere near me on the east coast, anywhere, I would've been happy to meet up with you and see how tough you really are. But, alas, you were in Texas. And I believe you sent me a pic of your license but said something to the effect of, I'm moving so I won't be living there very soon. Aw, you saved the PM's. How cute.

And I like how you referenced the original thread. In it, I provide a screenshot showing what you were saying was completely untrue. It's right there for everyone to see. And like I said back then, YOU don't make the rules. And yet you just had to keep coming back again and again instead of simply moving on.

Infraction given. Either leave that language at the door or you will be shown where it is. ANd I should add, your next outburst of profanity on this board will in fact be your last one.

As long as a seller discloses his shipping costs up front, I see no reason why a buyer should not leave 5 stars for S/H charges. It's up to a buyer to walk away from a listing when they believe the costs are too high. Many buyers forget that the seller also has to include insurance costs.
Why don't I see any complaints about the outrageous shipping costs that some of the AH's charge? One side note, I think that if someone wishes to show a badly damaged envelope on the board, at least cover up the sellers address. Yes, he should have shipped it in a more secure envelope but I would hope that he has learned from his past mistakes. There is absolutely no reason to show the board where the seller lives. Just my opinion. |

Why do discussion about shipping expenses sound more like political or religious arguments? It is amazing how polarizing something as simple as sending a package in the mail can be.
I think that the answers should be pretty simple: 1. If the shipping cost is clearly noted and reasonable care and effort warrants the cost, then reasonable feedback should be left. 2. If the shipping cost is clearly noted and less than reasonable care or effort was made, then stars should be dinged. 3. If the shipping cost was misrepresented, no responsible care or effort was taken or the packaged arrived in a less than desirable manner, then negative feedback should be left to alert and warn other potential buyers. What is a reasonable price for shipping falls back into specific personal opinion, but I think that trying to figure out if someone is making a couple of pennies on shipping and then grabbing a pitchfork, torch and a noose might be a little extreme. After all, the seller is still responsible for the item arriving to you safely and in the condition advertised, and with that responsibility comes an assumed risk that very few buyers consider. Shipping or including personal or business materials in a package is an expense that need not be passed on to the seller, however. So, to answer the question raised by the OP, if you know the rules in advance, and the seller delivers as expected, I don't believe a negative is in order. However, I don't see anything wrong with making a statement on the: "How reasonable were the shipping and handling charges?" section by leaving fewer than 5 stars.

That's how I look at it. I have left negative or neutral feedback for shipping when costs are obviously skewed, such as failing to combine shipping, higher shipping costs for an item shipped relatively unprotected. I will say, in my comments, my bid reflects the cost of shipping. On auction houses, especially those who charge for postage, supplies, handling, etc, I don't bid mch, if at all for many AH these days. In my prior life managing a profit center, many of these descriptive items are actually labor and material costs. I consider this no more than an attempt to increase profitability and, with the A H juice running up to 20%, any explanation is no more than justification for suckers. Just my two bucks worth, which is now $2.60 with S&H. By the way, I make several purchases from shippers in Japan. Costs are all over the place, but several ship for under three bucks. Food for thought.

I get asked about high shipping charges. Its written on the Ebay listings that I use Priorty Flat rate boxes and I also insure the items. Items under 50, I will use signature confirmation. You may be asking why??? I use these boxes for protection, since most items are slabbed cards.
Now I recently sent 1 slabbed card (200$ value) it cost $6.80 for the box plus insurance cost $3.35 for a total of $10.15, and I acutally only charged 9.50 on this listing. And folks complain it being high??? Another cost example: (a $1700 card)- it cost $6.80 plus insurance $17.25 for a total of $24.05 Another listing: (a $1900 card)- it cost $6.80 plus insurance $26.35 for a total of $33.15 **Also note that SMALL flat boxes are $6.80 and MED flat boxes are $13.75 and LARGE flat boxes are $18.75, so when I put $20 and use a MED box, on larger items/groups with $3 signature confirmation, and insurance, plus bubblewrap/tape/popcorn --it does cost that, and I don't have a mail pickup service.
