I haven't seen this on eBay in a while...always something!

I was poking around on eBay and ran across the item below...and it looks like the old fee avoidance trick! 100.00 for the item(s) and 600.00 for shipping. It was fairly common a few years ago but seems to have toned down quite a bit...no numismatic pun intended!
Just something for a Friday afternoon.

IIRC ebay charges a fee on shipping costs as well. This is more like a scam where shipping is not refunded on returns.
Yup. Completely believable.

Ah...didn't think of that angle!

The fees are the same regardless of the S/H charges
I guess the two he sold, the buyers didn't look at the S/H charge and thought they were getting a rip.
And not only are S/H not credited on a return, buyers don't get eBay bucks for S/H either.
No advantage for eBay fees - I suspect that they are hoping some people hit the BIN before seeing total costs.
That's the first thing I thought of.
