I ask how much will shipping be
Quote
Pay by distance not weight. Got to usps.com and use our ZIP.

I ask what is your Zip code then since it is not in any of your auctions and i need at least adress to fiund a Zip Code on usps.com

17402


Then i got this:

We have been receiving a lot of inquiries with Buy It Now offers. If you want it, set your max bid and good luck. It will sell.


I replied:
That doesn't surprise me that you have been.
I was going to offer one but i know it would have been a low ball.
You will probably make more if you let the auction run that if you end it early because of a BIN.
Hopefully the auction doesn't get to rich for my blood.

My answer

The offers from potential bidders are strong. We are offering the complete promo package. Several inquiries indicated they have been looking for this item for years. Good luck in your bidding. If you let it go...when will you see another? It will only cost a dollar to buy it. Take care.


I don't know what they mean about shipping prices being by distance not weight.
And i am kinda sketchy on them being rather vauge and trying to force me into a bid.

I will end up bidding but i never bid early on something i REALLY want.

I don't know man....I always have the policy "do not bid unless you have a shipping and handling quote."  If you don't have this price set the seller can, and probably will, screw you.

BTW here is the link(i was debating on posting it lol):
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eB...B%3ARTQ%3AUS%3A1&rd=1

Well based on what i got from USPS it would only be just over 4 shipping but i figure 5 to be safe.

If the guy tried to fuck me on shipping i would just deal with the neg feedback and neg him too.
I have all positive feedback from others because i pay right after an auction and keep in touch with sellers while things are going down.

But i have had to neg at least one person already.(That i remember)

I'd avoid it and hope the same thing would come up for auction later by someone else.  If shipping prices aren't listed anywhere in the auction, I myself always avoid that seller....but that's just me, I don't trust people in general.  Wink
