oh and FYI - the other reason she's upset (and for good reason) is that when a seller wont commit to a price before the auction ends, and the buyer who is wanting the lesser shipping amount is then told that its the higher price with no negotiation - the buyer either has no choice to spend more or they end up forfeiting their credits and the won item because of it. its just another way to scam that people have found.
what katdragon is saying is that it's always easier to spend someone elses money than your own. so when they go to the post office they just grab a flat-rate box for $5 instead of taking a minute or two and packing it in a padded mailer for the less expensive way of shipping and that she is wary because you are not going to commit to a lesser shipping amount. all that being said, i also need to know what you will be charging for shipping. i can afford the $3 for a padded mailer but not the $5 or more for flat-rate. so, can you please let us know which shipping route you will be taking? you can go to USPS online and check the amount of postage it will cost on there in a padded mailer. and the mouse weighs less than a pound so it should be pretty straightforward and easy to find out.
I dont blame you for being offended thedan That users insinuations were totally inappropriate. and just for GP Im going to block that user so they cant ever try to make my auction look like a scam!
I would never gouge anyone. I will go to the USPS store when I ship the item out and as always, whatever they charge me, I will charge you. It is sad that you do not believe me. If you want, I could ask them to put the receipt in the package so you will see what I mean. I think you are way out of line and I would never even dream of trying to "gouge someone" and I am highly offended.
Ok you said the WRONG thing there wghich makes me think you are planning on trying to gouge somebody for way too much shipping the costs are not "way higher" as you put it I have shipped many a mouse even still in the original packages for mless than 5 dollars so tell me know what do you plan on charging 10 dollars 15 dollars??? Dont worry wont be bidding since you have not answered anyone on shipping charges it lets me know you are planning to be trouble!
You should only bid on items that you know you can cover. There are tons of free shipping auctions out there. You could owe it to me then because shipping costs are much higher than people imagine. I apologize about the inconvenience.
Can you check what shipping will be to 30161? You should be able top send in a bubble envelope for under 3.00 I would think since these don't wiegh much.
I unfortunately only accept cash/checks by mail and I do not know off hand what the shipping cost would be to that location yet. It is used, but it still runs very well. Sorry about any inconvenience(s).
I feel sorry about your mouse, but I do not know how to lower the days on an auction. I would prefer keeping it at seven days anyway. My apologies, but good luck with winning this auction.
