| Somebody should collect it in person, get a cheap pedal without having to pay any postage. |

| What happened to Aaron could be the only downside to it in my opinion... Some guys here must think the right thing to do is pay ebay fees plus paypal fees! I'd let ebay figure it out by themselves. Whoever pays that is not forced to. |

| it's a really big downside, though. the low price gets a lot of people interested, and there's a big chance that someone will miss the shipping price and buy. plus, if you're selling on ebay, you're agreeing to play by their rules. i mean of course some padding of shipping costs is to be expected, but really $170??? it's just shady and i get skeeved when i see someone doing that. i just don't tend to trust that sort of thing. |

Well, the way I see it, someone that bids on something and discovers the high shipping cuote when it's too late, can always rise a complaint to ebay, and it wouldn't be a surprise if they eventually win.
Trust is a whole different thing, but you can look at the seller's feedback and decide upon that. |

I honestly don't mind if a person pads their bottom line by a few bucks, but this is pretty extreme. |
