I can get bubble envelopes from the dollar store, two for a dollar. The actual shipping, without insurance, is about two dollars. I started an auction and my shipping charge (of 2.50) is the lowest on the entire page of results when I do a search for that item. CB007's Review & GPT Archive CB007's Gaming BBS

For media mail, isn't it something like $0.60? What's great is when people charge $5 shipping, AND then ship media mail. But I haven't bought anything on ebay since I got Fallout, I think. That was about 2 1/2 years ago. See how your opinion ruined Christmas for everyone!

What's really silly are those who say it costs 1.00 for the item then charge $50 for shipping a CDROM. I believe that's against the rules.

Which is probably the main reason ebay will now feature items with lower shipping before the higher priced ones in search results. CB007's Review & GPT Archive CB007's Gaming BBS

True, these stats only come from 10 specific sales, but I've never seen a perfect score on shipping charges before. I noticed that somebody must have rated me less than perfect on shipping time, however, as one tiny part of the fifth star isn't filled in. I don't really get that since I have them shipped first class within 2 days of the auction end, usually the very next day. Probably the postal service's fault. I actually cut down the shipping cost to $2.00 on a lot of my items. The shipping itself is about 1.75 to 1.98 from what I've seen the last few times. I lose a little money on the envelopes in that case but I wonder if it gets me any additional customers or if going from $2.50 to $2.00 is too negligible.

I've been reporting these auctions and they've been removed fairly quickly. It's somewhat satisfying. CB007's Review & GPT Archive CB007's Gaming BBS
