Did you think he was going to do it for free ? Or, should I ask - how much is too much ? You obviously think $100 is too much for 5 coins, so just how much is he allowed to make before you think it is too much ? $5 a coin, $10 a coin, $15 ?</p><p><br /></p><p>Time is money, he had to fill out the forms, get the packaging ready, pay for the packaging, pay postage and insurance both ways - all of that cost him time and money. </p><p><br /></p><p>Now your feelings about this are not unusual, in fact they extremely common. Many, if not most, people have a problem when they find out how much money somebody, anybody, is making when they do something for you. They almost always think it is too much. But when they don&#039;t know how much money somebody is making - they have no concerns at all. As they say, ignorance is bliss.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now I have no problem with you doing things yourself and saving yourself money by doing so. That is the smart thing to do. But we as consumers don&#039;t have the, I hesitate to say right but I don&#039;t know what else to call it, right to dictate how much profit a business is allowed to make, or say that they are ripping us off when they do. They are after all in business to make money.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bottom line, this goes back to responsibility, we are all responsible for our own actions. Nobody can ever take advantage of us unless we let them take advantage of us. And when we let them it is our own fault, not theirs. They don&#039;t rip us off, we throw our money away.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
