These dimes must be very heavy, look at the shipping!

I am from Michigan and I am embarrassed of my fellow Michigander.

I think that is is just a mistake, he probably wanted $6 but accidentally typed $600

Why not instead of being armchair critics make a friendly inquiry and see if it is the obvious error? Don't be so picky!

I contacted a seller recently that had several lots that I was interested in and the shipping method was set up as USPS Parcel at over $6

The items were ephemera so I knew it did not cost that much to ship. The other listings were for hammers and shoes which Parcel would be appropriate.

I politely messaged the seller and asked if he/she combined shipping and mentioned the shipping method was Parcel.

Seller changed the shipping cost.

------------------

Not all sellers are out to squeeze buyers for every last cent. They make mistakes too.

Seems like people are obsessed with finding these mistakes and then trying to say this is widespread on ebay.

Just my Two Cents worth.

I can't believe people trolling ebay for obvious errors . I thought since there were just 24 hours in each precious day on earth , time was better spent . Darn I just wasted 50 seconds on this.
Seriously though people need to get a life sometimes.

moxking,
That is great that the seller changed the auction when you mentioned it to him.
It is easy to make a mistake when listing an auction.
I contact sellers sometimes and try to help them out.
