El Diablo Robotico wrote:Well, it's the most I've paid for shipping so far on anything I've bought on eBay for a book the size of this Metamorphosis Alpha (from inside the US anyway). Not that I'm as much of an expert as a lot of you guys here. But I've gotten books of comparable size shipped for around $4. I got a whole parcel of 8 Judges Guild Pegasus magazines shipped for $3.35. Shoot, I got a 1st ed CSIO (3 booklets and a bunch of maps) shipped from the UK for around $8. So... I dunno, $6 seems a tad on the high side. Not too much for me to skip the auction, but higher than I'm used to.For $6, I'm expecting some pretty decent packaging anyway. If the guy just sticks it in an envelope and sends it parcel post, well then that's not really living up to the $6 IMO... Or am I being unreasonable? I noticed that your auctions have equivalent shipping costs, although you're shipping from Canada, correct? I don't mean to begrudge you of anything.
