Lately I've been searching for auctions from a single seller where they have multiple items for sale that are part of a collection. Let's say it's comics (which I collect) and there are 20 issues in a series. Having many (like say 10 or more) that I can bid on and win is great because then I can combine shipping. If I'm going to be trying to get the other issues anyway, I might pay a little more if I know I can get a lot of them at once, and only have to pay a single charge.
Most of this stems from the insanity of postage. Some of the shipping costs are just getting way too out of hand. I came across one yesterday for basically 7 comics and the seller wanted $10.95 to ship. That's absurd. I hope they go out of business for being such greedy schmucks. Yeah, I get that you're trying to make a living, but do you have no understanding of what you look like when you set shipping rates like that. Unless you have an item that no one else has, you're not going to sell it. I think buyers are starting to get more careful about what they're bidding on because of sellers like that.
Anyway, give me multiple auctions of similar items where I can get more than one at a time and there's a much more likely chance I'm going to buy from you.
