Hello, Tom and List, I think I have to put a line in to this subject as well. Since Sep. 11th postal security here down-under has dramatically = increased, and every item, not to be a document/ card/letter has to be = sent as a small parcel with ID procided etc. The cheapest air-mail parcel is AUD $ 7.00 to the U.S.A. and AUD $ = 8.00 to the rest of the world. And in quite some cases the postage = charged does not even cover the postage paid, believe me! :-(=20 FXConverter - 164 Currency Converter Results=20 Thursday, September 4, 2003 7 Australian Dollar =3D 4.48539 US = Dollar=20 8 Australian Dollar =3D 5.12616 US Dollar=20 We are asking for USD $ 5.00 P/H for the first item and USD $ 1.00 for = every additional one.You see, we are not trying to make money on postage = charges. Handling of the item and packing material are not even taken = into consideration. We are certainly trying to be fair, but it is really up to the = individual to do the calculation and to decide if he/she wants to place = a bid. I hope you will still be bidding at our auctions. ;-)=20 --=20 Best regards from DOWN-UNDER, Norbert & Heike Kammel ROCKS ON FIRE IMCA #3420 www.rocksonfire.com=20 =20 Tom aka James Knudson wrote: Hello List, Are we missing something?

I was looking for a computer mouse for my daughter and almost fell of = my chair seeing the shipping costs on these auctions! Six dollars was low = for a computer mouse, nine, ten, twelve were normal and fifteen on the high side. One guy had eighteen ($18) shipping and a note saying if you don't = like the shipping amount don't bid and don't ask me for to come down on the charge! All of these S&H charges were for a single mouse. I am not talking about a few of the auctions, I am talking just about every one of them! Are we undercharging on our shipping or are they all trying to rip people off?
