<p>[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 1945141, member: 5233"]Yes...because that whole $8 is pure profit too. If that coin cost the seller melt...that is around $1.50. Out of that $8 eBay gets about 10% ($0.80). Of course, one can't forget the free shipping...which is only free for the buyer. Odds are, that was a minimum of $3 for postage and supplies. So, that right there is $5.30 in overhead. I know the coin sold for $8.30 or so...so yes, he cleared a vast $3 off you. I can't imagine why he was annoyed when someone bought an item that was clearly presented in the photos, and made a $3 profit, why he would be annoyed when the buyer complained.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>It's quite amazing how this story has evolved.
