Once again, John, even when confronted with a unified view from other chippers you are still unable to wrap your mind around the issue here. It just DOES NOT MATTER whether you plainly state in your auction that you are going to be ripping off the buyer… the fact stands that you are doing just that. No one is accusing you or this other guy of being deceptive. They are just criticizing your and his shipping policies, which are heinous and predatory.

I don’t know what other language I can use. If it’s not sinking in with you it’s your problem and if you continue with the policy, you’re in for more grief. I can tell you that no one else here on the board can understand why this concept isn’t sinking in with you, and I doubt you’ll find ANY sympathy from others.

As far as your feeling sorry for the seller, I’ll just say that you’re two birds of a feather and you’re standing alone out there in your nest. Have fun with your future auctions… I know I will!
