No way Mac DOOM of any stripe or variation (disc, disks, Ultimate, Regular, II, you name it) would be worth $12 shipped.
Love the required Shipping Insurance...this guy's gotta be kidding me O_O
Hmpf. There's another seller selling DOOM II/Ultimate for $7.50 starting bid, and shipping is free.
God Bless the!

One way to avoid part of the Ebay fee I guess.

Perhaps we need to start a new forum or thread on most outrageous Ebay shipping costs? What will be the highest shipping fee required in 2005? O_O

You know, as long as the seller properly puts the shipping charge in the shipping charge field when he sets up the auction there really shouldn't be any mistakes by newbie bidders. When you place a bid eBay displays a screen showing you how much you bid AND how much shipping is for the item giving you a total item price.
Its only if the shipping field isnt filled out and just hidden in the description that you can get screwed.

Yeah, but eBay throws all these figures at you...unless you're always checking and rechecking figures (like I am) then it's easy to let this stuff go by.
If somebody does get burned BAD by shipping, my advice would be to just report the auction for fee avoidance.

LOL Yup and thanks ^_^
Someone actually won that GBA game O_O
Btw, I got a reply from the first guy regarding the international shipping.
My question to him:
"Are you saying that it costs $75 to ship it to a country other than the UK?"
His answer:
give me your shipping address and i will give you a quote! if your shipping address is blocked by U.S. customes, then i can not sell it to you. pray this helps.

I should try this outrageous shipping cost matter, seems like people actually benefit from it.

99 out of 100 times, the seller doesn't get paid.
BTW, try it and I'll kick your ass.
