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.

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

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

$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.

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

That same card sold in a B&L auction for 20k. I think it's overgraded. The stain detracts from the card.

If cards were expenxive , not excessive. Joe

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.

Interesting and helpful information. Thank you for posting that!

Bob,

Thanks for the explanation but I think people rather come here and bitch as opposed to trying to fix what they do not like. No fun writing something nice about someone. Let's just be happy Jeff L is not posting on this thread.

I think most auction houses charge too much for shipping but then again on eBay I have been forced into not being able to charge more than $3 to ship cards of any value or weight or suffer the wrath of a low DSR.

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