Hey, Conway.  What color is that Squall Sack?

Hi Conway,

Respectfully, all of these items are around $10 less when purchased new.

Best,

Hi Brendan

Looks like the Cap'n lists his wants as "per shipped." So the bars, 90 bucks might seem high, but I bet since the box will be large for that one item, my guess 30-40 bucks shipping if you do not have a commercial account. I was surprised of the shipping costs I forked over for parts I sold last month. One box, IIRC 6x6x5 inches was 15 bucks shipping. There goes my expected "profit."

I would stipulate - as I have before - that "net-to-me-shipped" is confusing. I list my items as "price plus shipping" or "price shipped".

Thanks, Mike.  Pirate ship has made shipping palatable.  Most items listed are new, and I will sell anything listed for the retail price, shipped, so no tax or shipping for the buyer.  It seems reasonable to me.

Conway,

Thank you for clarifying that these are the prices shipped.  Like Joe, I found "net-to-me shipped" confusing in the pre-coffee hour of the morning.  These are perfectly reasonable prices for new items. Appologies for derailing your post!

Nothing nefarious was intended on my end.  I think it was Crust that wote something to the effect of, if you like it, buy it, if you don't, complain about it online.  I'll let that simmer then I'll delete this FS post and sell the stuff on eBay or Crust classifieds.
