Seems excessive shipping for one lip. UPS must be able to ship this.

Seems odd to me, There add says....
"Local pick up is NOT available. We're just not set up for it and we currently don't hold consistant business hours so its just not practical for us. Also, we do not have proper security at our location. In the future we plan to offer local pick up, but, right now we do not. No exceptions." Sometimes sellers make a little money on shipping but I kinda see it being $160ish like d-man says. --------------------  |

Proves the point a bit more that thy are trying to squeeze profit out of shipping. The one thing I really hate about ebay. QUOTE (bloodrain @ Jul 1, 2008 - 5:11 PM) no, for something that size is only ~$40 to ship. The thing is ebay doesn't charge there fee on the shipping. Hence why the item is $50 and shipping $160. also take note of the quote "Local pick up is NOT available. We're just not set up for it and we currently don't hold consistant business hours so its just not practical for us. Also, we do not have proper security at our location" seems, odd. Dont you think? yea, there is actually a terminology ebay uses to describe this, forgot what its called. -------------------- |
