Does anyone know if it's possible to combine shipping on items if you buy more than one thing from a seller? Is there a request a total option?

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

Best bet is to contact the seller (there are only a handful of us selling there) and make arrangements first. I think everyone is from the acaeum so it should be possible to make friendly contact (unlike ebay which makes contacting sellers as difficult as possible).

For myself, I combine shipping and only charge actually shipping cost.

Cheers, Jason. I just wondered if there was a mechanic for doing it. I'll go see if there is a PM system on there.

Okay. Here's a silly question....
Is there a buyer's console of any sort? Is there any way of viewingt he things you've bought and have to pay for? Shouldn't there be a 'My Basket' or a checkout system?

I'm beginning to think the site doesn't work with my browser or that my computer isn't storing the cookies correctly or something? Does it require Flash or Java?

I think there is something in place for combined shipping (as I've purchased items from Doug and he's been able to do it). Not sure if its done on the invoice page or what though as I've never sold anything on there. I'd probably send Mike or Doug a PM for more details about it.

As for the buyers console, if you click on the Members Area button, it'll take you there. You have links for Items I'm Winning, My Won Items, Invoices Received, etc.

Ian, I'd request a total from the seller, RPG Marketplace is somewhat informal (most of the biggest sellers are Acaeum members) so you should get an answer from the seller him or herself.

There are lots of layouts there you just have to kind of fiddle around with it for awhile and you'll discover them all. It's a very intuitive interface I've found.

The RPG Marketplace is right on the cusp of 400 registered users!

The Marketplace is a very informal spot for buying and selling RPG items, with very few (mostly no) fees, with most of the vendors being Acaeum members. Included are items from Doug's personal collection (such as original copies of Palace of the Vampire Queen, Lost Caverns of Tsojconth, Ghost Tower of Inverness, Quest for Fazzlewood, Lost Tamoachan) and many other interesting items (NTRPG con dice bags, NTRPG Con reprint of POTVQ, and many standard D&D modules).

If you haven't checked it out in awhile, give it a look.
