I just came across an E-bay auction that someone is trying to sell 25% off coupons to AC Moore! They have 34 of them and are putting them up for 99c... I wouldn't think doing the work for that is worth it! A.C. MOORE CRAFT STORE COUPON
Yes, and she could get more than $5 a piece (plus shipping and handling). Most of the people she sent them to requested plain brown wrappers...don't even want to think about that.
actually, when I think about it, if I did want/need something expensive at AC Moore, it would probably be worth it to purchase the coupon for so little...

LOL- maybe that's why, they didn't want to be on the Victoria Secrect mailing list and get unwrapped cataloges in the mail. I don't see how having a VS cataloge come to your house is embarrassing, but that is probably why.

right?
As a buyer it would be worth it, except they give out 50% coupons left and right! And just about every Sunday night is a 25% off everything in the store. Not to mention you can use all competitor coupons which are also VERY easy to get. I myself wouldn't bother because I could get one for free quicker. But as the seller I would think it's not worth the time to list them.
I have sold formula checks on ebay, they sell for close to their value. I still have yet to figure it out, but hey we used store brand so figured I mine as well sell them lol.
The thing that cracks me up is that this person is charging 50 cents for the shipping. Aren't stamps still 39 cents?
I was thinking the same thing... I think a lot of people over charge on shipping on purpose on e-bay. I can't tell you how many times the shipping for an item is $10 or higher for something that will fit in a small $4.05 priority box!
I know when I have sold stuff on ebay I charge a bit more for shipping and handling to cover the bubble wrap, padded envelope, etc as well as the cost to cover gas etc for the trip to the PO. which is sometimes necessary...
Shipping has gotten really high tho at PO, I sold something one time, charged $10 to ship it. THought it would be plenty, it cost me $13. I now use FedEx Ground they are so much cheaper for packages.
I think the main reason that people charge more for shipping on e-bay is because they don't have to pay e-bay a percentage of the shipping cost only the listing price. That is the sellers way of getting a higher sale price even though it looks low when bidding.

True, but you do pay a fee if the money is collected through paypal...
Being overcharged on shipping really turns me off to an auction. I usually don't bid if the seller has clearly inflated the shipping cost- even is it is something I really want.

I hope this person is not a member of SCS and if you are, too bad because I am speaking my mind! I bought a stamp on Ebay...I am looking for background stamps because I really don't have any and like some of the "retired" ones out there. Anyway, I paid 12 bucks for a stamp that stated it was a Swirly Background stamp. It came in a regular envelope and was 1" x 1". I was soooooooooooooo upset! The worst part is that the stamps didn't equal the 2.50 it cost to mail it! LOLOL I learned my lesson, of course.
When you register at the Baby formula websites they send you "checks" which are really coupons you can use for baby formula purchases.
Ok so try searching on ebay for "Dryer Lint" I know it's used for paper making but it's still sort of funny... I know my own lint isn't pristine enough to sell!
OH my gosh. I'm SO glad this came up. I HATE HATE HATE when people jack up the shipping prices so high. I've seen people selling SINGLE sets with $8 shipping! I only ask for actual shipping.
Yep all the formula companies send ya checks when you have a baby. I have had some for as much as $10 off. THey are just like a coupon, but they are a actual check that the store cashes at the bank.
