Thread: Sellers who refuse to combine shipping.

nowibuystuff wrote : gallovidian Could you please provide a link to the eBay policy that says combined shipping should be discounted? Also I believe you are mistakenly interchanging the words "Combined" and "Discounted" Here's the link that says what money the seller can end up with.

Here's the link that says what money the seller can end up with. It doesn't pretend to be an exhaustive guide to rip-off techniques. Might just be a technical problem, but I am not seeing a link.

Combined = put everything in one box.

how can somebody give out 25 NEGS and still shop on ebay? a idiot? a miserable piece of ? somebody that gets thrills threatening people? somebody that buys an item then threatens a neg if they don't change the shipping terms to his or her liking? somebody that thinks every seller should discount shipping? all of the above?

I think the combined shipping issue with buyers is not as clay suggests, that buyers have to pay individually for individual boxes, I think the complaint is due to paying for (for instance) 6 S&H fees and getting one box. Buyers that want combined shipping are looking for sellers to pass on the discounted shipping rate. If your items are already packaged, why can't you put several of those already boxed items in one larger box if the...

how can somebody give out 25 NEGS and still shop on ebay? Guess that would depend on how long they have been on eBay, how many positives have they given? There are even some that never leave feedback, unless they had a problem and feel a negative feedback is warranted, but they never leave a positive feedback. So really, without knowing more, could not provide an informed answer to such a statement. And this has what to do with this thread?

Pay for the items with Paypal-one at a time. The seller will be forced to pay more fees. Then insist that they be mailed individually. If they are not, leave bad feedback. Be careful, I was reported on the boards for suggesting the same thing....................... For this same post actually. Apparently someone thought that was against ebay rules, and whoever sanctioned me thought so too.............

Will all the buyers who think that sellers should combine shipping answer this 1 word question Why? If you purchase items from penny's sears or any other large E-tailers at different times of the day or over a period of 7 days so they combine and discount shipping?? They do not so why do you expect sellers on E-bay to be any different?. .

I stopped combine shipping because I could not afford to do so. I used to combine all of the time. If you have noticed paypal fees and ebay listing fees keep going up. You have to make a profit at the end of the day. So, I no longer combine shipping and if a seller has that policy, you have no right to complain about it. To put it simply, if you do not like it, do not buy from them. Also several of my favorite sellers are now gone due to a bad...

Point is that the OP admits to not reading the entire listing. Seller, under eBay rules, is not required to combine shipping nor offer discounts on shipping for multiple purchases. My father always told me to read the fine print before signing anything. That goes for placing electronic orders too.
