<p>[QUOTE="SCFY, post: 1735009, member: 55116"]Let me start off by saying that I know this is a very obvious statement, but I am going to say it anyway. Modercoinmarts free shipping is not really free...To expand on this statement I will say that their pricing is a bit higher then most other sites, so the easy point that I am making is they are making up on the shipping by giving you a flat rated price on their items and making it seem like the shipping is free.</p><p><br /></p><p>In reality they are having you still pay for the shipping, its a selling technique that has been in use for a very long time. 1 exampe is BOGO, anyone ever go to a store and they are having a buy one get one deal going on, or buy one get half off sale. Simply put, its not really buy one get one or get half off, its raise the product back up to full price and they are still making the same they would if they did indivual sales at a discounted price.</p><p><br /></p><p>The lingo is used to make your mind think you are actually making out better when in reality you paying the same if not more. same goes for Moderncoinmart. Think about it, they are still selling Amerivan silver eagles for over $26 when silver was in the sub $19 range this past week. Other sites were selling for lower amounts and also offering better deals on shipping if you made larger purchases. </p><p><br /></p><p>So let me ask you folks, did I just bable on a subject everyone already knew, or did I actually inform any of you on something new?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
