Greg Morris Cards - A tiny, insignificant and petty rant

And since they seem to list tons of cards on Ebay pretty much every day, to be able to offer such a service to ALL their customers, and because they likely have many people winning multiple cards from them over multiple days quite a bit, they pretty much have to automatically wait a week or so after you've initially won something from them to see if you end up winning any more of their cards. That way they can combine and ship your winnings so as to SAVE YOU MONEY on combined S&H charges.

But not a one of you people posting seems to have recognized (or comprehended) this actually very good thing they do to help and potentially benefit their customers. Good lord, you have a seller that pretty much does a great job in everyone's opinion, yet they still get criticized for doing something for their overall customer's benefit. Damned if you do, and damned if you don't it seems. Wow, just wow!

Geez Bob...I mentioned exactly what you said a few posts earlier and was praising them. Maybe read some of the posts first.

Wasn't pointing at you at all. Just started glancing through early comments and saw how everyone was saying great things about GM, but still must have had some issues with their perceived slow shipping, or why else were they bringing it up and commenting on it? And my apologies for not referencing/acknowledging your initial post. I had actually started my initial response much earlier, before your initial post, but then had to break away and take care of something else. So no, I must have missed your initial post when I got back on and saw the swing of possible cause now going to the USPS in the last few posts that were then in the thread. And the way those last few posts read, it sure didn't seem like you or anyone else had mentioned GM's 7 day combined shipping period during my absence. So obviously, it appears I wasn't the only one who missed (or misunderstood) your first post.

And since others didn't apparently "get it" from your post, maybe it was a good thing I did post as if you hadn't posted what you did after all. Because now they definitely get the point about the 7 day combined shipping period, and how it can most definitely affect how quickly GM gets items to their customers.
