    One of this seller's previous buyers won 20 different 1956 Topps single card auctions and the seller charged him $3.95 S&H for each with no break or cap.

    That's $79.00, just for S&H, to ship 20 single ungraded cards. (I am assuming they were shipped together)

    Apparently, the buyer paid the $79.00 and left 20 negative feedbacks to boot.

    Maybe the seller is still a little dazed from the negative feedback punch .... thus he forgot the pics on this auction!!??!!

    I asked a seller one time for a pic of the lot of cards that he was selling. He replied, "what's a pic?" I then asked for a scan. What I got was a cell phone pic that was very bad and did not even show a complete card. THis was from an experienced ebayer. When I received the cards, I was very suprised to see that they were in minty condition. I keep buying from this guy, even though he has no pics. It works out nicely for me.

    $3.95 for the first card and $2.00 for each additional cardwon in a seventy-two (72) hour period .




    Actually the buyer paid 44.00 not 79.00


    Not defending this guy but it was clearly stated in his auctions.


    Steve
    Good for you.

    Thanks for the correction Steve, not sure how I missed that.

    Even $44 is a ton for shipping, as I think many would agree that there's an unwritten
    rule of common sense that says a seller would cap off the S&H with a more reasonable price.

    IMO, sellers that play that game, usually miss out on more money in the long run.

    Many buyers say that they figure the cost of shipping when making their bids ...
    but I wonder how many potential bidders turn away as soon as they see $3.95 S&H for one raw card? ...
    not to mention the ones (unlike me image) that don't miss the $2.00 per extra card in a 72 hour period.

    Some sellers just don't get it! .... I guess that's why he has a 4.3 DSR for S&H!

    One thing that made me laugh when looking at all the negs that the buyer sent was that he actually won 21 auctions from this seller ....
    he sent 20 Negs and 1 Positive (but the positive said "card was as stated S/H correct for graded card if sent alone".
