    Exclamation Walmart GIJoes dropping in price on Ebay.

    OK, guys, for those of you who haven't had any luck getting these at your local Walmart, or don't want to pay inflated prices, now's the time to snatch them up for the holidays. I just scored a BIN Black Adventurer for $11. The kid I babysit for, (whom I am getting into the Adventure Team), will be really happy this Christmas.

    Hardygirl - was that $11 with or without shipping? If it's without, what did they charge you to ship it? I have run into a rash of sellers on eBay recently who are charging incredibly inflated shipping and handling fees to boost their sagging profits. This is against eBay's stated policies but, of course, they won't enforce it.

    The shipping is $6.55, which isn't bad considering some of the others that charge $12.

    No, $6.55 shipping for a boxed 12 inch Joe figure is excellent! I am fighting with a jerk right now trying to charge $8 to ship a DVD within the US and $7 for each additional DVD!

    Same thing, when I received my packet the postal stamp was $12 so I ask the seller why he made me pay $15 but get no answer...

    I had a purchase a few weeks ago that cost me $14 to ship 2 figures because he wouldn't combine shipping. Just gotta deal with it.
    GFY!!!

    that is actually reasonable if the seller uses Priorty mail in a box. If they use media mail or a buble mailer it might be a little high

    He's breaking the law if he ships it media mail. Bubble Mailer would be bad too because damage to the box is almost inevitable.
