[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1931117, member: 15929"]Well good. I guess its ok that folks can now NOT share their opinions? That's gotta be good for the hobby! As for $2 or $3 on a coin deal, that's totally dependent upon the coin. $2 or $3 is nothing on a $1,000 coin but more than one $1,000 coin deal has failed to occur based upon a $2 or $3 difference. I had one deal on eBay where a prospective buyer messaged me stating that he would purchase my graded coin but he felt that my $4.00 shipping charge was outrageous since he could ship the same thing for less than $2.00. It certainly seemed like $2.00 was a definite deal breaker on that one. Right? Everybody has an opinion. The purpose with this thread was to find out what folks opinions were and to rationalize it out. Are shipping and handling charges a big deal? Sure they are! Especially if you really want what you are purchasing. The same scenario gets played out over Sales Tax which can make or break certain coin deals. Some folks go so far as to not attend coin shows where State Law requires that Sales Tax be collected. We are an ambiguous lot aren't we?[/QUOTE]
