You now get 5 stars when you do free shipping on Ebay. They don't give you the option to give anything less. I guess they sort of listened to us. I still think if the shipping charge was as stated it should be 5 stars as well. At least we won't get idiots dinging us when it was free shipping though.

You also get an automatic 5 stars if the item is delivered with the time frame indicated on the auction.
That policy doesn't account for the old adage "You get what you pay for"

Ditto, eBay is slowly making it easier for us hard working sellers to get Top-Rated status!

I agree and use the same policy.When i gave free shipping i encountered a rash of "items not recieved" so that was the end of that.A fair charge inclusive of delivery confirmation is acceptable to most people.
The whole point of complaining about shipping costs is lost on me , we all know the shipping cost is figured into the bidding and it works out the same.
system and do so in a timely manner.

PS: I too never offer free shipping and my DSR's as of today are quite acceptable
at 4.9 or higher. I really do believe that 99.9% of people understand that it does
cost money to send something through the mail system and won't argue about a
reasonable cost to do so.
More stars won't add a thing but free shipping would cost around 5-7% of each sale.
