All the sellers in this thread have been great about combining shipping, by the way.
I have noticed some Ebay sellers who seem to get hostile at the mention of combining shipping. Recently, I bought eight or so press stills on Ebay and the invoice contained over $25 in shipping charges. Bleary-eyed, I didn't notice this until after I paid so I emailed the seller asking for a refund, which they gave after a day or so. But the PayPal refund came with a service charge which I had to pay so I mentioned this, too. At this point, I had won more of their stills and rather than refunding the service charge they sent the remaining stills at no charge. It turned out all right but I didn't appreciate all the extra effort that went into it. Strangely enough, though, their first response to me was that I had paid before they could send a combined invoice. I paid the invoice that I was sent after the auctions ended. Isn't that how it usually goes? Why would buyers think they should wait for another invoice before paying?
