We are getting circular here. First, the article I am citing to and provided above is from 2009. That's the latest Morwitz article. I don't think the article you cited was more recent than that. But, in any event, I am talking about partitioned pricing in the auction environment, which is different than in the standard marketplace for the reasons you have already mentioned. Indeed, the fact that you and a substantial number of Net54 members do not believe they are being tricked means that the strategy may actually be working.

Now that sounds even more circular. In any event we can agree to disagree I guess.

Since we been complaining about the shipping charges so much in this thread, figured I would post the package I got from Heritage today. At least we know we're getting $19 worth of packing materials. And yes, that is the only thing I won that was in the package.

That's pretty funny DJ. Maybe they didn't want someone to know there was a card inside .

maybe it should be called "shipper's premium" for now on.

The original intent of the thread was to announce the end of an auction. I think that train left the depot a while back. You guys can start a thread about anything you want to.....including shipping fees, interest on shipping fees, baseball cards etc......but this thread ran it's course. Thanks again to everyone how bid in the auction. I hope everyone got something they wanted. And I know there were some great buys on great cards. I couldn't be happier than to have the proverbial win-win situation.

ps...and honestly, after a week or more, I am also tired of seeing my name in the limelight so much.

pps, even though I would like to see the thread go to another page I guess if folks must post in this thread....then so be it. I hope it doesn't surpass the Monster number thread....carry on....(and ya'll at least know my feelings on the subject )
