I won a non-graded card for $130 and they charged $8.45 to ship. It was well packaged and sent pronto. No complaints here. It seems reasonable to me that they would ask more to ship several graded cards, and not much more at that.

Personally, if I had an issue with shipping charges I would take it up with the seller first and NOT make a post on a public board, especially over a few dollars.

Default James - You mean something like this?

Just won a lot of 80 odd raw cards in Huggins & Scott - They can ship for about $3 via 1st Class & $5 via Priority actual cost.....Insurance around $17 --- Was charged $31 -- Just a few bucks, but nearly 50% over cost - Nice little profit center

Tim,

Here! Here! I concur............Huggins used to be very reasonable with their shipping charges, but for the past year or so, they sure seem to have jacked-up the shipping profits costs.

Lovely Day...

I wonder if the auction houses all recruit volunteers to do packing and shipping so they have no expense there.

I was unaware of any issues on our end. We have alway tried to be fair and I will speak with those who deal with shipping and our policies for some insight.
