I've decided to go ahead and leave the shipping on the post. I can't take the chance of the bid not going that high. If it does reach 5000 then I will go ahead and ship. Hope you understand. Thanks.
If you put in a high bid, then if someone else bids, then listia will automatically bid for you until your high bid is reached. If no one else bids then the listing will end with a 499 bid.
