I've always paid for
shipping myself, and my ads always say this. But it seems that when people
compare auctions, they never to do the mental work of compensating for that
money saved. So from now on I will list a fixed shipping price and let the
bidder pay for it, since in people's minds, a dollar spent on shipping
evidently isn't equivalent to a dollar spent on the item itself.

I've never understood this, and I've seen some perfectly outrageous
fixed shipping charges. I think the seller probably doesn't care what
he gets for the item as long as he gets someone paying his shipping
charges.
