Posted February 18, 200718 yr just won Minstrel and Queen , the Impressions ABC white demo ex. total cost $32.99 $10.15 shipping charge!!!! (airmail) is the seller a bit greedy or wot!!!!
February 18, 200718 yr You haven't stated where the record is located. I'll assume the USA. I recently bought a 45 from Craig Moerer via Ebay. He charged $5.50 for airmail. It came in a proper card 45 mailing envelope, so no excuses for adding on packaging costs as some do. If Craig can do it for that, then why can't others? I would have said no more than $6-7 tops. Maybe they're just ramping up postage costs because Ebay doesn't take a cut of postage, just the final auction price.
February 18, 200718 yr A mate of mine has just won something on ebay and the US seller wants $14 postage for a 45! tone
February 18, 200718 yr I've never shipped a 45 to the UK or Eurpoe that has cost more than $6.00. They are either using an on-line USPS calculator incorrectly, or they are trying to make some money on the shipping.
February 18, 200718 yr Shipping from U.S is usually 5-6 dollars. Whenever I bid on anything I take account of these costs, if the seller does not list a price I email him for it before bidding, and add it into the maximum price I am prepared to pay, I don't mind whether shipping is $5 or $25 as long as the overall price is within my limit for that particular item.
February 18, 200718 yr little-stevie said: 6 dollars top...Thats what i pay...If they charged more than don't buy... If a seller has listed a record which you would expect to pay $100 for and he had it at a Buy it now price of $30 with $20 shipping would you really not buy it?
February 18, 200718 yr bought from the USA but at least i think i have a bargain hopefully!! the record that is not the postage.
February 18, 200718 yr Yes i would pay high postage for a bargain.... .. I and many others who sell on ebay know that its tough to get a good price on most records at the moment,some hike up the postage to make up for letting tunes go cheaper..
February 18, 200718 yr Personally i never buy without knowing the postage first. If they can't tell you, walk away.
February 18, 200718 yr Depends how desperate you are to get your record . I have bought a few records of a ebayer called Abeze-online , they charge way over the going price but I always get my record within 5-6 days as compaired to the usual 14-28 days (if your lucky)

I would pay the charge and wait for the record to arrive, then leave negative feedback on him stating the true cost of postage. Regards Paul
