Yes I'm disappointed the smart ass comment was retracted as well... I can only hope what comes around goes around!

Tony great pick ups on the crackerjacks... I really wanted that Clarke! At least Fred has a good home!

Brian...holy honus-i...love the ju ju!

Now that I've heard Johnny say, "Boy, those shipping fees sure are high." I'll be the audience and say, "How high?"

Examples?

I won a $1400 lot of 4 sgc graded, M101-4 cards. My shipping was $23.

I would have to presume on a single high dollar card the insurance cost is what causes the stratospheric price.

[terjung]

$64 in shipping for 2 cards and a pin.

[x2drich2000]

I won a single card with a bid of $150. Buyers premium=$29.25. Shipping=$18.23. Total $197.48.

So is that a special rate for Leon?

Yeah, only 2x the actual cost....(including insurance)

In their defense they have worked with me, time wise, quite a bit on paying off some lots I have won.

I was an underbidder on the CJ Cobb. Really wanted that but couldn't pull the trigger at the price. This is a nice hobby - when you lose, you end up with a lot of money in your pocket

Great concept.

Basically I just said that maybe they were using the excess shipping fees to help pay for court costs.

My $209 7x9 photo cost $19.86 to ship. Quite excessive, but I knew in advance that it would be.

[Robextend]

My shipping cost was $22.55...not bad for 2 complete topps sets.

[bobbyw8469]

My shipping costs were a shade under $30 for 11 PSA graded cards.

[sycks22]

$62 to ship a couple cards. Love the N162 Brouthers

[Exhibitman]

Let me get this down: $19.86 to ship a single $300 item? Oh, wait! I got a better idea. Instead of that, how about I send you a hobo's **** cheese?



In the mean time and as usual, go **** yourself.

[pcoz]

Went way cheap at 19k. A SGC 50 a couple yrs back went for 52k. Someone stole this!

If cards were expenxive , not excessive. Joe

[jcmtiger]

As you can see from my posts, I think everyone should consider the insurance and weight of cards.

As the owner of the software company that powers Legendary's web site and shipping calculator, I can tell you accurately, how it is done.

We base the shipping fee based on three data points;

1. weight,
2. value of the invoice
3. zip code of the ship to address.

Once, those data points are supplied, our software bases the shipping costs by going to the shippers database (USPS, DHL, UPS or FedEx). Legendary will then provide to the shipper the method of shipment (i.e. For FedEx it may be Next Day overnight or Ground by UPS). All of this is done automatically, and using actual shipping costs.

I hope this helps and, if the shipping costs are too high, I urge you to call Legendary and ask them to have a look at the issue as they have always been reasonable when approached.

Insurance $5.00 shipping $5.00 , about $9.00 too much.
