[/I] I have never participated in one of eBay's live auctions so I wasn't aware that is how the bid was recorded. I agree with you about buyers not being aware of the BP & shipping costs. This is something all buyers should investigate before bidding. The one that stuck out to me is the one who refused to ship because the bid was not high enough. Peggy[/QUOTE]
