Default B/S/T question

Posted By: Marty

If one card is listed, with a price, most would expect the first to say I'll take it to be the one to get it. If you send an email and say I'll take it if the shipping is acceptible, you are open to another sliding in while you are away from your email, or holding up the seller from taking another offer. I just feel that if the shipping is not stated, it should be inclusive in the price. If there is a list of 10 cards, each with a price, without any discount options, I will make the assumption that the price listed is what the seller wants for each card. If I want to make an offer for a discount, I can. The seller making a couple of bucks on saved shipping is not really a problem if the buyer wants the cards for the stated price before someone else speaks up. I do not think that the sellers should feel required to offer discounts, it is their choice. I have actually had it happen the other way also off of an eBay sale. The buyer offered to send a check for free shipping, otherwise it was PayPal and I would get the fees.
