<p>[QUOTE="DJCoinz, post: 268094, member: 6756"]Seller's have every right to factor that into their shipping fees. As long as you know exactly what you're paying for s&h before you buy/bid and you've factored it into the final price of the item, why does it matter? Sellers have every right to factor it into the shipping price as it is a legitimate expense. It's unreasonable to expect us to be able to factor it in to the "auction price" when it is, in fact an auction and we don't know exactly where it will end!</p><p>Who doesn't?</p><p>So you think bubble mailers cost $.01? Only a fool would ship an expensive coin in a regular 3.75" x 6.5" unpadded envelope (btw even these do not cost $.01 and they cannot be insured). I guess my point is that if you know exactly what you're paying before hand, who cares? Admittedly there is a line between reasonable and unreasonable. $8 for first class mail uninsured? I'll still buy it and pay additional insurance (if the coin's value warrants it). $20? No I won't buy it. I will instead report it to ebay for fee avoidance.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
