Something like, Question for Seller:"I've heard that you charge unlisted handling fees after the auction ends. Is this true and if so, how much are these fees? Why don't you list them in the auction?"

DOn't want to hear whining about time, gas, blah blah blah. I do all that for free. I consider it a service to the buyer.Tell him to screw off, man. I've seen at least 3 of those in the past few months. Another will come along.

"can't you just include it in with the postage for the other 2 items" well i have just replied and told him that he was getting it for free anyway and that it isnt exactly light. in the end i just told him to forget it - i will re-invoice for the 2 items and then we are both happy with the issuefeckin muppet Al

I'm a reasonable guy, so postage will be at cost, and is non-negotiable. There will be a $4 handling fee and a $50 chiropractic bill.
