I can’t see updates on Saved Sellers. I can’t see what other jokers are listing.

I don’t really care. I wasn’t going to use peanuts anyway, but does anybody have any insight as to why somebody would have this preference?

They’re kind of messy and static clingy, but I don’t know why anyone would care enough to make this request


peanut allergy???

I love packing peanuts ONLY for small items.

You should ship a jar of peanut butter with the comic. Guy will probably get a laugh.

I’ve heard of incidents where dogs eat them? Fall out unexpectedly and the dog quickly snatches them up? I’m reaching for an explanation here

they just make a horrible mess and get everywhere when you open the package. I absolutely detest them.

Use what works best for you as the shipper. If they care that much about how it’s packed, they can just come pick it up instead I say


If something is that important, ask about it before purchasing.

Otherwise the shipper is under no obligation.

The shipper is never under any obligation in how they pack the product I say, before, now and after. They do what they think is best to get it to the buyer in the same condition. If their packing fails, then you got every reason to chime in with a complaint! :slight_smile:

Agree, if you are concerned about the choices the shipper makes,ask them before you purchase so you can make an informed decision. That was my point,

It’s annoying to be asked to ship something a certain way after its been paid for. Disrespectful, maybe.

Since when did Ebay start copying Mercari on the Make Offer process ?

You make an offer, if the seller accepts, your credit card or Paypal gets charged.

Gone are the days when can you ask the seller for an invoice for combined shipping.

Lower shipping cost goes bye-bye.

I guess when I make offers I better have the correct payment method. I guess you could always ask afterwards for a refund on shipping but some sellers refuse to.

You can always contact the seller before you make your offer. I’ve had quite a few people contact me for combine shipping on multiple products and even for comics that I don’t have listed. We negotiate an offer and then buyer gets invoiced. In this case you can still make a partial refund.

My guess is too many people were making offers and then don’t follow through on the payment.

Now how about those auctions :thinking:
Instant automatic payment?

Whatever would we do with this Forum thread? :stuck_out_tongue:

I always refunded buyers when eBay failed to combine shipping properly even if they didn’t ask. That’s just the right thing to do regardless.
