[meteorite-list] I thought of an idea on how to get around the price increase on eBay on some items

[Shawn Alan]

Hello List
 
I have seen this done before on eBay with items I have bought. The seller would offer the item at buy it now for $2 and the shipping would be 15. Now if your a seller and offering an item that isn't that much I could see the seller charging $15 to $40 for shipping and handling/packaging quote un quote, if they know the item will go for that rate at buy it now or 5 day auction bid, where it would only go for $2 to $5 at closing, which the seller would only be charged for the closing cost and not the shipping and handling cost (that was a long run on sentence). I guess its worth a try on certain items that sell for a fixed rate. 
Just a thought
