FS: Canon PSC3000 semi-hard case for G3/G5

What contradiction? Trying to outsmart eBay means one is not honest? Do you
know how eBay revised its fee schedule several times to squeeze the most out
of sellers? eBay constantly try to outsmart everyone else, and we are not
allowed use our brain a bit? There is nothing wrong to be smart in a
business world! and that has nothing to do whether one is honest or not.

Come on, I just listed it. Obviously you know little about eBay. Not only
because you couldn't figure out how people try to outsmart eBay


Interesting contradiction, you claim to be an honest person, yet you
admit you're trying to outsmart ebay. I don't like ebay, and will not
buy anything on ebay, but cheating them out of fees isn't something I
would do even if I did. Is this honest?

Dip****.

BTW, NO local pick up now.

Are you kidding? 8.00 pickup fee? What the hell for?

Don't tell me you havn't noticed that most people overcharge for shipping...

$12 to ship in the US or $8 to pick it up? Why not just add $8 to your price
and be honest about it instead of lowballing the price and overcharging for
shipping?

Yes, it is dishonest. If you don't like eBay, don't sell your stuff
there. But trying to take advantage of loop holes to get out of paying
fees is dishonest, no matter how you try slant it. Busted pal.

And still no bids. Imagine that. People are obviously smarter than you
give them credit for.

Some do, not most, though. I was just curious why?

You're right, it's certainly not illegal. But it is a violation of eBay
rules, FWIW. It's called fee avoidance, you can look it up on their site.
And many people don't notice until after they bid that the price is low and
the shipping is too high.

Instead you decided to impose a fee for someone who was willing to come and
pay you in person, presumably at a time and place of your own choosing? So
for you not having to package the item and take it to the be shipped, you
charge $8? Sorry, I just don't get it.

I could have stated "no pick-up". And the rule is buyers should not expect
to pick up goods.

Guess where to put your 'convenience fee'.

So I revise the language to "NO pick up".

Defenitely MOST. BTW, I didn't hide the shipping charge in pages of
description. I listed it where it should be.
