[QUOTE="Mark Feld, post: 310738, member: 11467"]The winning bidder and the under-bidder determined the final price. I don't believe that was the seller's fault - it's not like he went out of his way to hype the coin. Also, as I posted previously, the shipping charge was plainly noted in the listing. Any bidder is free to and should take the shipping charge into account when calculating his bid. For all we know, the seller could have private insurance. I do not think a $6 shipping charge is contrary to Ebay's stated policy - here is the relevant part: "Sellers may charge reasonable shipping and handling fees to cover the costs for mailing, packaging, and handling the items they are selling.

Sellers who want to be sure they are in compliance with this policy may charge actual shipping costs plus actual packaging materials cost (or less). In addition to the final listing price, sellers are permitted to charge: [B]Actual Shipping cost:[/B] This is the actual cost (i.e. postage) for shipping the item.

The coin easily looks better than XF and it might even be uncirculated.[/QUOTE]
