grrrrrrr. Price gouging OT
Surfing around ebay this afternoon I found a FQ I liked, but the woman wants
$2 to stick it in an envelope and mail it. I emailed her and said she could put it in an envelope and mail it for 39 cents, could she be more reasonable on the shipping price. She said her prices were lower than anyone elses, and she wasn't going to lower the shipping price. It seems to me in the last six months or so, there have been more and more people on ebay price gouging in the shipping department. Week before last I calculated the shipping on a 5-ounce book via media mail, $1.52. The guy wanted over $5 for shipping! I can understand adding a bit in the shipping department if you have to do a lot of packing, like I have to do for my pottery, but shoving a FQ into an envelope, or a book even, that's a no-cost proposition other than the postage. It's getting to the point where people want more for shipping than you pay for the item. sigh I hate price gougers. -- L. P.
