Don't know if it was mentioned yet since I lost interest when the OP started calling people ********, but don't forget that Ebay is also charging you fees on your shipping charges. The higher the charge, the higher the fees. And you can whine & ****** all you want but the more you charge for shipping the lower your rating will fall. Generally you're going to take a tiny hit shipping, but having a low charge, under $3 for sure, will draw more & higher bids.
