Dear All,
I was wondering if I could get some feedback from you concerning terms of auctions. (TOA)
I am a high volume seller for being a one-man show. In the TOA, in plain lettering, I state in my terms I state the terms of shipping...then the high bidder asks for a modification of those terms post-sale. (Almost all of the time, I send priority to use the tracking feature of delivery confirmation)...then some email me and say "I don't care how soon it gets here but I want to get it as cheap as possible."
Am I wrong for being upset whenever this happens (at least 5 times a week)?
I pack the items when I list so I can send it out the next day...changing this means I need to buy plain boxes and repackage to save the buyer $2...while I lose money and the ability to track the items in case of a "I never received it" incident.

I read one TOA that nicely stated "I ship Priority @ $.... I can ship media but will charge $.....to pay for a box. The Priority boxes are provided free by the P.O., I have to purchase plain boxes."
