Shipping costs. $3.85 up to the first pound. Delivery confirmation is $.55. Etc Etc. Just visit your post office and ask to see the shipping rates. Or go to USPS.gov. Everything you need is there for info. My S&H vary on EBay because of weight considerations when I sell. When I buy I add the S&H in with the bid and consider it a part of the purchase price. Do this and don't go over and you will be safe. Remember if you don't get it the first time because of price, invariably a like item will come up that you can buy based on what you think is a fair price. Scams are in every part of life. Just get to know them and you will be OK. Use common sense - helps alot. And as many of the above posts pointed out, ask questions. This is a good thread to jump start peoples thinking have they not thought of these things. Will probably save some people a bit of grief maybe. By the way, I use EBay, Paypal, wire bank transfers, and the like. Never had a problem. Why? I took the time to learn about it . A legitimate outfit will answer your questions without hesitation. They are in the business and no business can afford to alienate their customers.
