Yep,I wasnt going to say anything,just wondered if others would catch that.  Its not diff then the ram sellers selling sticks of ram for .99 then charging 10 bucks per stick to ship. People who don't combine shipping are a$$holes,just greedy a$$holes. sometimes its best to just not bid on these types of auctions unless you are just sure you have to have whats being sold,or in the end after shipping you can still get it below the normal value. What I recommend on Rarebuckys is that if you have something you  want,wait till the last 30 secs to bid. No point in jacking this guys auction values up with shipping like that. Just wait till the last min,see what you can get on the cheap,and if nothing else,dont bid. Seriously,after you hit  acertain price,sometimes its cheaper to just get stuff from Hit-Japan or Toshi or elsewhere when people in the US are charging damn near EMS rates themselves.

Shipping on this item is $6.99 for first class USPS shipping within the US.  If you win additional items shipping will only be $3 for each additional item, so win a bunch and save big!

Fair combined shipping this is not. If someone wants to do so they can pay via paypal then after the item arrives take pics of the shipping package and so how much the seller spent to ship,and get funds back in a claim.

Any suggestion of the sort is ridiculous.  I posted this here to give forum members a chance to get some rare games, not for to you to be advising people how to skirt the system.  I don't know what your problem is but it is not cool to be advising people to do this.  Let people decide on their own what is fair and what isn't and if you don't think it's fair just don't bid.  Don't be an ass.

I don't see hows its ridiculous that I give tips to assist in people getting items for lower bids since your shipping is insanely high,so that they get items for a deal that balances out to the total worth,regardless of you banking on insane bidding wars and taking offense. Once you post links asking us to bid,ect.,or even open this thread your going to be open to this kind of criticism. That is in fact how it goes on around here. Deal with it. Besides,the whole point of ebay bidder wise, is the bidder winning,and at the lowest price possible.... :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

It's not the point.  You don't come into someone's sales thread and threadcrap.  This link was purely information and did not need your negative comments.  Furthermore, you don't tell people to go and bid on my items and then go and file a dispute for misleading shipping charges.  That is skirting the system in addition to telling people to screw over fellow forum members.  That is NOT the way it works around here.  And I may be new to posting here but I am most definitely not new to reading this forum.  So cut the crap and stay out of my thread, ya hear?  Thank you.

The shipping charages seem OK. I've seen better, however I've also seen worse.

Generally, one can gather if a person is trying to make all their money on shipping, or a small amount.

Many people factor "Handling" into the shipping. Handling can be the cost of the shipping box/envelope, packign material, the drive to the post office, and the time it takes to do all that.

Many times when I've sold on ebay, I've takced on another $1-$3 to cover fuel, time and packing materials.

"Damnit, Beavis, put that away. You're not supposed to have your _____ out when you're cooking".

  That is skirting the system

Thats the second time you mentioned cheating the system, which is laughable since that is exactly what you are doing with your fee avoidance.

Why don't you just lock the thread because asking people to not comment on a public forum is just silly. Thats what we do here, we discuss. When you start a thread, you are inviting people to join the discussion.
