    The shipping payement also has less fees if i recall correctly so it’s also a method to evade some

      I’m confused how I just got a notice of this reply, and how it says “3 hours ago” but the comments replying to your comments are “7 months ago”

    Yeah. Anyone using eBay long enough knows to prioritize listings with free shipping over others.

    The same is true with all any other services, the more they break it out the more likely you’ll be scammed.

    It’s not for the consumer’s benefit. They are structuring the transaction to give themselves levers to pull.

      it’s funny when they choose $100 shipping on an object that actually does cost $50 to ship, but are $80 cheaper than any other option and have the audacity to complain when I want it shipped to me in Alaska.

    Yup. Need a new bumper for my car. Saw one for $200… $1000 shipping.
