The 20% Buyer's premium should have already included shipping fee in the first place regardless (IMO)

I guess it doesn't matter as long as in the end it was done but i'm wondering if it will impact other auction houses to do the same?

In reviewing my records it does seem odd that my shipping cost for a sub-200 item raw group of cards and photos in the spring auction was 3x the shipping cost of over 2,000 cards in albums in the fall auction, but I was too happy with the wins to bother questioning it. I just assume 2% of the [hammer price + vig] when I bid. Except REA; love that flat fee shipping.

Got a check yesterday, anyone else?

Still awaiting mine.

Got my $27.59 check yesterday.

I got mine. They refunded me the entire shipping charge for my item, not just the overcharge.

[Shoeless Moe]

Got mine as well.

OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE MOVE!

Thank you Lelands!
