<p>[QUOTE="coinage86, post: 212600, member: 7584"]philly dog says the seller is mad that he didnt get the price he wanted. Thats possible. But a more accurate statement is this: theres a lot of sellers on ebay that charge a flat shipping rate that is more than the actual shipping charge. Its a bunch of bullsh--! BUT: they dont see themselves as dishonest. lot of sellers acutally think its legit to make profit on the shipping. This is the mentality of a lot of sellers. I dont agree with it. The coin (or whatever you're buying) is the product. The shipping is the necesary expense and effort to get the good to the customer. The shipping should not be an excuse to make more money. If you're not FEDEX or UPS or USPS or DHL, and its not shipping you sell, then you have no right trying to make money on shipping. its just plain unethical. BUT if you want the item bad enough, you put up with this crap. you can always leave a negative feedback afterwards that says "overcharges on shipping." But theres too much good stuff on ebay to not buy on ebay. to let the little crap bother you enough to stay off ebay is ridiculous.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
