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. "Iam So Shure" wrote in message ... On Fri, 12 Sep 2003 04:06:58 -0500, "Q.

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****. |

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...

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. |

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. Tom P. "Q.

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. "Q. Lu" wrote in message ... I could have stated "no pick-up". And the rule is buyers should not expect to pick up goods. "Robert A. Barr" Not.for.@harvest wrote in message ... "Q. Lu" wrote: Genuine Canon Leather case specifically disigned for Powershot G3/G5. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=2951191817 Guess where to put your 'convenience fee'. |

Defenitely MOST. BTW, I didn't hide the shipping charge in pages of
description. I listed it where it should be. "Tom Pfeiffer" wrote in message ... Some do, not most, though. I was just curious why? Tom P. "Nighthawk" wrote in message ... Don't tell me you havn't noticed that most people overcharge for shipping... |
