I just saw this eBayer group and thought I would post something. Has anyone noticed that sometimes the shipping prices do not go along with the current USPS rates? I tried mailing something and shipping over $3.00 it was a heavy item so I had to ship it a certain way. But the darn thing would not let me post anything above $3.00. I have been an eBay member since I was 18 yrs old. I love it, when you can't find something usually eBay has it!

There are certain items that they regulate the shipping in order to prevent shipping gouging, such as books. Most books have a shipping limit of $4.00. This is usually enough since these can be shipped using media mail.
Not always though. I try to ship accurate, buyers appreciate this, it feels honest to them.
I have been eBaying for many years. The newer shipping programs are awesome!
not perfect, but I am amazed at how easy they made it over the years.
Automatic shipping information shared with all parties, including tracking #'s. You use to have to load all the information into the shipping page, that was before windows was as easy to use. Man, I feel like a dinosaur.
Good luck.
If you screw up, apologize and fix it. This will keep your feedback great!

If you don't think they get a cut of the shipping cost, then your not looking at your account page close enough.

Hi DS,
Miss you :o)

I would love to go to the Gaitlinburg event. That's where I really got addicted to boxing back in 07. I tracked down a lot of trolls.
Have a great time, so glad to hear good things from you.
