    High Shipping prices

    I just won 5 cards from one person and they said the shipping was $2.99 per auction and would combine shipping on all cards won on same day. Then he sends invoice for $8.29 for shipping 5 cards, a bit high i would think.
    My question is am I right for asking him to justify the $8.29 that way i know what i am paying for,thx

    wow. Absolutely contact the seller before you pay him for it. I have never had a problem with any seller that I have won multiple auctions from that didnt come down on shipping after just one email. Ignore what the invoice says. Alot of times when you checkout at Paypal, the discount will be there. Hope this helps,

    I sell cards on ebay I charge $3.50 a card but I always send in a new case team bag or top loader and bubble mailer.I also like to charge $3.50 for a card so I can get a little some thing when a card goes for 99 cents.I have had guys ask me if I combine shipping I say yes and then no matter how many cards they get I never charge over $4.00.Seems to work good for me $8 for shipping is a little crazy imo unless you won 5 or more graded cards.

    You will lose the case!
    ALWAYS read the terms of the sales
    Since you bin/hit the BIN you agreed to the terms.

    The seller technically is giving a discount.

    If nothing further was specified, you should have contacted the seller first before buying. You can't, and shouldn't, assume.
