Over-charged for Ebay shipping, should I pay?[views:2614][posts:13][poll! to vote:click here] to view:click here] _________________________________ [Dec 12,2004 10:16pm - XmikeX ""] I bid on a postcard on ebay that was autographed by a way sub par professional athlete as a joke present for a friend. The item is a postcard, nothing else. The seller has asked me to pay almost $4.00 for shipping and handling. I think that's ridiculous. I emailed him and told him I thought it was a little steep, and he got really indignant about it. Should I.... |

S&H usually covers listing fees, final auction value fees, PayPal fees, labor, packing materials and postage. All of that stuff adds up. |
