"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.

Mars wrote:Yes this is okay according to Ebay. The only complaint you might get is that $10 is excessive. You will notice that on the auction page where shipping is listed, the word HANDLING is not mentioned. It only says SHIPPING COST. Handling is something that the seller can determine after the auction has finished and then add it in to the additional fees box on the Ebay checkout.

Greg Stafford <[email protected]> to me More options 9:57 am (1 hour ago) Dear Zhowar,Thanks for your letter. I'm new to this, and I'm always interested tolearn howto do it beter, or more corectly, or whatever.> I've heard that you charge an unlisted handling fee after the auction> ends. Is this trueIs it unlisted?I essentialy had a "selling template" made by a friend. When I make a newlisting I see that there is a $4.00 handling fee included when I make theentry. This is for the sturdy box, my time in packing and walking it to thepost office, etc.But does it not appear when the entry is lised then?Do you know how I can make it appear?I note that when I invoice people there is a slot to enter, on the invoice, ahandling fee, and I enter it there. But if it's not visible beforethat, then Ican see why it's "unlisted."> and if so, how much are these fees?$4.00. Do you feel this is unreasonable?> Why don't you list them in the auction?As noted aove, I thought it would be. Is there something I ought to becheckingor listing somewhere else, or sometnhing> Is it only if you want the item signed?No, the autograph is part of the normal price.========================Sincerely,Greg Stafford
