$90 for shipping... looks like he got some poor sucker to pay $134+ for a $95 gift card.

30 seconds left, and 7 bids at 44$.

btw, you can not pay...

To think that the people bidding didn't check the shipping costs is just friggin absurd. How retarded to you have to be? Even after ebay takes its cut off the top, he just made a profit by a nice margin.

I fucking quit Ebay cuz the cocksuckers wouldnt let me charge the actual shipping. I was always losing a dollar or two, and the cheap cock lickers would never pay what I wanted so it just stopped being worth my time and effort.

Had to be a typo...or I promise you that the winning bidder didnt pay anywhere close to $90 for shipping. A lot of people are dumb (like paying a illegal $450 to cut down some branches on a tree) but I dont think ANYONE is dumb enough to pay $90 shipping for a $95 gift card...I just cant believe that at all.

Oh come on, it's first class mail. That's some damn good quality transit right there.
