[QUOTE="hontonai, post: 297135, member: 4703"]Young lady, I'm afraid you are being overly sensitive. I assure you that I hold no animus toward you, and I'm truly sorry that you mis-construed my comments as a personal attack. I've been selling on EBay for longer than this forum has existed. I calculate all my postage costs on the official government website of the USPS. If you click on the link I posted previously, you will find that an envelope such as I described can travel first class to anywhere under the US flag for three-quarters of one dollar, and absolutely no more. Explore the USPS site, and learn that the non-standard envelope fee never exceeds 17¢. I've mailed 1-5 single coins in 2x2s in an ordinary small-size bubble mailer with nothing extra in the envelope many, many times with no problems. I agree with Doug that if you object to the shipping charges, don't bid, and otherwise just reduce your maximum bid for the item by the amount of S/H; but when it is obviously jacked up to cover other expenses or avoid paying EBay's true final value fees, I resent it. At any rate, since you feel I'm picking on you, I'm putting you on my "ignore" list. That way I won't inadvertently reply to one of your posts, since I won't see it. BTW, my daughter is older than you, so please don't take the "young lady" reference as an insult.[/QUOTE]
