Michael1976 Member Posts: 106 From: Chandler, AZ 85249 Registered: Nov 2011	posted 06-23-2014 10:19 PM Funny... I actually lose on shipping with flat rate. With insurance is over $8.00.
fredtrav Member Posts: 1673 From: Birmingham AL Registered: Aug 2010	posted 06-24-2014 10:35 AM I am sorry, but I do think that $8. is a lot for a signed cover that is less than $40-$50. There is no need for it to go priority, and shipping should not be more than $3.00. If you ship it through eBay or Paypal, then you have proof of shipping as well as tracking. I would have insured the Armstrong, but the two covers don't have to have it. It is up to the seller what to charge for shipping of course, I am just saying that people factor that into what they are willing to bid. They get turned off by high shipping thus lowering the number of bidders and the amount they will bid, especially on lower priced items.
