I inquired why the shipping charges more than doubled from last year and are so pricey. Their shipping manager stated it was a management decision. He said they now charge $.80 per $100 for insurance. That is very expensive, and then tack on more fees/costs.

Folks may want to consider factoring this into their bidding looking forward. Knowing that bidders will need to factor this into their bidding, I'd seriously consider other auction houses for listing my cards since you won't get top dollar, in my opinion.

Only $0.80 per $100.00? Canada Post charges $2.05 per additional $100.00 coverage.
