Shawn Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Only $12 shipping on Combat, sweet! Geez $12 is more than all 3 of those games are worth combined. But the seller already knew that or the shipping on one of them wouldn't be more than all 3 games are worth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cebus Capucinis Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 No, we would truly be mean if we reported all three auctions for unreasonably high shipping. Oops, guess I'm "truly mean" then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpendTooMuchOnAtari Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Actually, I thought the shipping cap for video games was $4. The seller is from Canada though so maybe it's different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goosethemighty Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 (edited) You guys are right the shipping is high. The shipping that was posted was for something else. Ebay uses the same shipping costs from previous listing for new listings. I will change it to $8 (Canada)as that is the minimum parcel costs they charge. Thanks for the spot (not the childish sarcasm of course. I already have a bid on them so I could leave it at $14 but it is unreasonable. EDIT: I can't change it as ebay wont allow me to once a bid has been placed. Edited May 12, 2010 by goosethemighty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheesh, sounds like the problem is the postal system rather than your listings then.... even at the $8 minimum they charge a box that small....crazy! Yes it starts from $0.56-$2.99 mailing letter, then it jumps to $8.00 minimum for a parcel. It may be a small box but it couldn't fit through a mail slot (they test) so it goes parcel. Now that's $8 Canadian to ship in Canada now that I think about it $12 isn't so bad considering that it will cost more than $8.00 to ship to America, plus package costs, so what I may make $1 off the shipping. I don't feel so bad anymore. Plus that's local mail, sending the same parcel say to BC is $11++, plus packaging I may end up paying so it balances out.

If you are right then the woman at the post office needs to be retrained because I cleary asked `So parcels starts at $8.00` her reply `yes.` oh well oranges and apples.
