natelite Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 check it out! not too bad compared to retail! and you dont even have to wait to win the auction. it's buy it now.
ghoulrealm Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 It's about $11 cheaper than retail, Shipping is $15 don't forget to factor that in. you can save $11 and that's someting, but not enough of a difference for me :-( also only ships to USA
gylman Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 Also, does not take PayPal, which increases the hassle factor. Also, more negatives than usual for a quality seller. Not that 97.9 is terrible, but I am used to dealing with 99% or higher. 11 neg feedbacks in the last year.
natelite Posted August 11, 2006 Author Posted August 11, 2006 umm, is batcave $75? i thought it was $90. it's buy it now for $64 + $15 for shipping for a total of $79 vs $90 + tax retail. that's 12%+ dc. am i missing something here besides no paypal and a 97% feedback?
sam89 Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 Tht's exactly what ghoulrealm said. You only save $11, which in his opinion, isn't enough.
natelite Posted August 11, 2006 Author Posted August 11, 2006 i see. the part i was confused with was when he said "shipping is $15 don't forget to factor that in." wasn't that already factored in if he said it was $11 cheaper than retail? *wacko* anyway, glad i got 2 sets during target's screw up. :-) i'm all good.

I was emphasizing not to forget shipping charges when evaluating savings. I presumed that you thought it may have been a better deal than it was. Some ebay sellers will give an awesome price only to jack up shipping charges unreasonably high. and is 11 worth the risk of shipping and even seller's trustworthyness if you can get it at a local store for a bit more? Not saying this person or Ebay is not usefull or untrustworthy, just that I'ld prefer a storefront buisness unless it's incredibly cheaper or only available over the internet. At least save more than 11 bucks.
