Of course, I have a few more that either weren't around then or didn't make the picture... I am certain when we make a contest out of it, it will be much harder! :P

Post by: Grant Lamontagne on August 05, 2006, 01:56:42 AM: I just finished telling that story in the other thread! The moron was charging $18 for the Harp Tool and a mere $20+ for shipping!
I should have reported the idiot to eBay- it's guys like him that give real eBay sellers a bad name, you know?

Post by: Fred on August 06, 2006, 03:31:30 PM: Ebay is great if you know what you are looking for and know what that item is worth.I love seeing the guys who pay well over retail for something because they get caught up in bidding!I agree about those idiots overcharging on shipping to screw ebay since it cause ebay to raise fees for everyone.

Post by: Grant Lamontagne on August 06, 2006, 09:31:14 PM: Yeah, I probably should have reported him... but that was a few months ago and no point in crying over spilled milk.

Post by: NutSAK on August 06, 2006, 11:38:37 PM: Ah, THAT idiot.

Yep, high shipping charges seem to be a recurring theme nowadays. I guess it's just another way to catch the unsuspecting off-guard.

Post by: Grant Lamontagne on August 07, 2006, 02:56:49 AM: Looks that way... I don't think eBay should drop them though- might be a better punishment to fine them, and discontinue their priveledges until they pay the fine... hit the buggers where it really hurts!
