Aren't those orange magnet/crown chassis way up there?

Ouch! That hurt.

I had one one time that when he posted it he said the shipping was free where you eneter it on the ebay form the turned around and added a 10.00 charge to the write up that I missed.

Yeah, I got a good deal on the super Gplus chassis.. and it's my own fault for not reading his shipping charges more closely :tongue:

... I won't make that mistake again

I don't see on any of his other auctions where he was charging extra for anything on top of shipping, am I missing something?

I once sold a rebuilt starter on ebey for $5. In my text I typed shipping was $15, but in the ebey boiler plate I forgot to change it and it said $5. When the buyer sent me $10 I still cheerfully sent him the starter eventhough it cost me like $17 to ship it.

I realize this is aples to oranges, but I'm leaving it here anyway.

I've bought from this guy before with no problems.

I've also bought some from this seller (2go4) without hassle. He even combine shipping

I'm not blaimung him. It's my fault for not reading more closely... still, it was a shock at check out time.

Lesson learned!

VJ,
Don't feel to bad, I believe most of the members here have done that or something similar since becoming an Internet expert. Heck, I've done it twice with shipping. MDA. READ EVERYTHING. :freak: rr

I had the same thing last week when I sold a lot of ps2 videogames and clearly in my description it said 10.00 shipping, but I forgot to change the fleabay bar and got stuck with taking 5.50 for shipping, when it cost me about 11 to ship. I think I got under 3.00 a game

Did it too with an Atari set up I auctioned off. Think I netted a wopping -$8.00 when it was all said and done. rr

I don;t harbor any bad feelings for the seller, just myself for being in such a hurry that I didn;t read the WHOLE auction listing.

Like I said, I still got a good deal on the super gplus chassis

Videojimmy do you what to sell one of those orange magnut and gear? fcb

Sorry, but the only reason I bid on the auction was to get the Super Gplus chassis. I only have one other and I wanted a pair for racing. If I see anymore, I'll shoot you an email to alert you about it

I wonder who else sells those...hmmmm....?

On the lighter side I once recieved Positive feedback as soon as buyer paid. I then passed on the guesture to the next seller I bought from. You really can't go wrong with it as far as kharma goes. The guy thought I was halarious. I do understand getting a good thumping before you realize you gotta read all of the tiny little sentences while you are really want just wanting to bid and win. I have a few cars bodies that are junk and the auction stated that but I overlooked in my haste.

Groveman, glad to see you here. I once send out one of my DVD's before getting paid (by mistake) and the buyer was freaked out by it and asked me of he'd paid and had forgotten. I once had a seller send me 6 tycopro chassis and leave me postive feedback before even I paid for them.. I was very surpirsed by that
