    Tough call. 2.99 x 5 would be 14.95. He did reduce it almost by half. Still seems high, but he did not say how much he would combine the shipping.

    thats true, i dont mind paying the price if its justified. I dont want to get a bubble mailer and 5 cards with a $3.00 stamp on it.

    He cant justify $8 for shipping 5 cards.....a flat rate PRIORITY box can ship around 20 cards for $5!!!! i feel your pain ..ive been bit by this before but a little worse... i had a seller with the same description ...."we combine shipping" but didnt give details... he combined the shipping rates at $3 per and combined the total to equal $9 for shipping 3 cards in a bubble mailer ....he combined but just didnt reduce

    i dont think he can either, and also it says expect it in 12-19 days
    for that much i should get it alot quicker,
    I will honor my part of the auction after he lets me know what the $8.29
    If it is not $8.29 worth of shipping when it comes in, his 100% is gone

    Hopefully he packs the cards securely in quality supplies, then packages it in a bubble mailer, and if you're lucky he'll send it insured. However, it's fairly common for people on eBay to charge $3 to $5 for shipping and then send in a PWI with postage under $1.

    I'd email the guy and ask how he plans to mail your items and see if he'll reduce the postage, but I wouldn't be surprised if he declined. Good luck with that.

    thank you, first of all i dont want anyone thinking i want him to lose money on the shipping, just be fair.
    and as far as the PWE goes that happened to me 2 days ago
    I won a Matt ryan rookie jersey card- good price and $3.00 for shipping,no problem.
    I came in the mail in a PWE with a 64 cent stamp on it
    It just bothers me that people like that have no respect for the hobby anymore

    i agree shipping and handling covers more than the shipping cost the guy does have to use gas to drive to the po and that costs money too he did give you a discount on the total price of shipping all in all i say the guy is being more than fair
