Default Huggins and Scott shipping and handling???

Did anyone win anything from the last Huggins and Scott auction and think that the shipping and handling was absurdly high???

Yes...fortunately I had a credit from a previous auction towards free shipping. Had I not had the credit, I was going to call them to complain. My package wouldn't have weighed more than 3 pounds well protected and they were going to charge me $60 for shipping and handling.

Yikes! Didn't this happen with Leland's...a stink was made and they refunded people? Thought I read about it here.

I get that it takes time and some money to ship but it should not be a profit center if you are charging a huge buyer's premium. Disappointing to hear this.

Might be a software error on calculating shipping costs.
Have you contacted them to make sure the cost is correct?

1 card. $600. $24 shipping. Seems a little rich but it's probably why I don't bid with them very much. I'm sure it's some mathematical formula on spreading their insurance. Not to say it's right, mind you. Seems crazy high on top of the 23% buyer premium.

I won a $350 card and program combo. My shipping was $25. Seems high.

Just pointing out that the buyer's premium is 20% if paid by check. They also credit $10 each auction for opting out of the printed catalog. Scott

I think that the $10 credit is a one time thing?
