I say still silly at 9.50 or 9.95 for shipping those blank binder pages.... I corrected him a couple months ago twice, by asking a question..He thanked me for pointing mistake out...All the listing were off by one..One certain week he had lots of tiny errors (Or big), maybe had some new workers...I was looking way ahead on days- so I spotted fast and told him fast so that the errors could be changed

I was myself too ......I thought 6.oo total for book & shipping, those brown binders for Proof sets or 50c...Has anyone got these in mail already from Asyn.? Are they worth it or good?..Tonight examples had circle marks where a coin had been..no big deal here..but on some I noticed around the outer edge of circle was a circle of green (Verdigis- or slime). Or could a wipe be good before I put my coin inside page?Yu can get 30% off shipping cost after you have more than 3 bulk wins...

I have bought a lot from asyn and have enjoyed his free shipping and great service. I have a small list of Canadian sellers that I trust. I certainly do understand that any business has to have a business model that makes a profit, and I don't begrudge reasonable rates. I try to maximize my dollars and make it a win for seller and buyer buy buying more coins I need when I find one I want. I trust asyn to be a class act and that he will continue to do the best he can to provide good value.

It will certainly encourage more bidding on coins. $2.50 shipping for a single coin is kinda high, but $2.50 for 4 coins isn't bad.

Looks like a lot more of this seller's items are going unsold since the change.

What are some of your other small group of sellers? For me I just had Asyn for long time I didn't do The Bay, just him alone...You would think the unsold would have to come back up again some month...

DBM: I think there will be more of that. Some items were pretty good deal with free shipping. I recently picked up one coin from them and then felt I must pick up more to take advantage of the combined shipping.... The other coins I picked up for melt.. but I'm really hoping they're kinda close on their grade for the orginal coin... BAwhahahha ohh who am I kidding... *sigh*

I know the the feeling AgCoinAu, I`ve got two coins won and four more days to find something else I need or at BV to take advantage of the combined shipping just in case.

I've tried selling both ways, shipping in, shipping out. Although I now offer free shipping in Canada, from experience I found that by NOT having shipping included and charging a flat $2 shipping fee, I did better on less expensive coins. Many people bid on the number not the total. Common Canadian silver dollars that average between $16-$21 would be a good example. Saying that, I choose to stay with free domestic shipping since it helps with curtailing the fees on international shipping which represents a chunk of my sales and Canada Post rates are ridiculously expensive.

Wasn't paying attention and didn't realize that asyn doesn't combine shipping anymore. That pumped the bill up a little bit. Whoops!

NO Free shipping..They do offer combined shipping,,discount of 30% for 3 to 8 items. I got scared a little when the one box only had a 1. and on left side $5.95,, for those rolls..Lower down though it does say Yes, Combined shipping...

My last order from ASYN... total cost.... just shy of $500... shipping... $5..

My last TCNC auction..... only one winning bid... initial cost $90... after all fees $130


While without a doubt I'm happier with the quality from TCNC... the mark ups certainly make it difficult at times

Whizb4ng: asyn DOES combine shipping starting with just 3 items and you have 7 days to find more items to be combined.
