<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jody526, post: 18008, member: 578&quot;]I agree that there was no reason that you should have to pay extra postage after the package arrives. The seller should have put enough stamps on it to start with.</p><p><br /></p><p>The thing is that the S&amp;H charge is not just for actual postage. It can cover any number of expenses that a seller incurs while processing your item for shipment. Packaging materials, listing fees, final value fees, PayPal fees, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, some sellers push this excuse to the limit. They would have you believe that it is the bidder&#039;s responsibility to pay for their time spent acuiring the item, their time spent selling the item, their time spent shipping the item, the gas they use while going to the PO etc., etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sorry, but in my opinion, that comes under the heading of; &quot;the cost of doing business&quot;, and is not the customer&#039;s responsibility. EBay doesn&#039;t see it that way though, and does allow sellers to charge for what ever handling they see fit, as long as it&#039;s not an obvious case of fee avoidance.</p><p><br /></p><p>My general rule of thumb is that if a seller will take a PayPal credit card payment, and ship one coin for $2.00 or less, I won&#039;t have any problem with that.</p><p>But, when you start getting into the $3-$4 range, that&#039;s when I start looking for my coins elswhere.</p><p><br /></p><p>And like the man said, I&#039;m not complaining about it, I just don&#039;t bid.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
