    Karen, I don't see what you're referring to -- but I COULD be blind since it took me 5 minutes to find the link to edit the listing.

    Ah! Thanks!

    Waaaahhhhh.... nobody is watching my listing! *sniff* I sure hope everyone is right about the last minute thing.

    Yes, the cost of shipping is deterring me in some thing we like. If someone local wanted to buy it, I'd gladly have them meet me somewhere to exhange things without the shipping fee.

    Jen, I figured someone would notice my ebay name! Fits, doesn't it?

    I think the ad is great!
    We buy a lot from Ebay and the only suggestion I have is "Buy it Now". Hubby and I shop a lot with that feature.

    And yes it is very common for people to wait til the last minute to buy something.

    I buy clothes from ebay.
    I would look past the ad because of your shipping. I learned that people mark up shipping, and that makes me mad. Not saying YOU do, but, I would immediately think, "$9.00? ".

    I would also break it down to size. For Jonah, I wanted ONLY a certain time, and didn't want to spend two pennies on something I knew he wouldn't fit.

    On a side note...I wasn't really sure why these clothes wouldn't fit the baby- assuming it is a girl? Maybe you could wait six months, and then sell TONS of the stuff as a large lot, including the clothes the baby would then have outgrown?

    Perfect example of outrageous shipping charges...

    I bid on a cat tree and won the bidding at $10.00. Unfortunately, I wasn't paying close attention to the SHIPPING of the item(or the feedback for that matter) which said "calculated". I thought, "WOW!!! I got a cat tree for maybe $25!!!" NOT!!! The shipping brought the grand total to $135!!!!! I emailed the guy and told him there was no WAY I could afford that kind of money and was not paying it. He said okay. I then checked out his feedback. BAD NEWS!!!! He had over 100 NEGATIVE feedbacks in a 12 month period. When I went to look at his feedback again, he made it so it's private and no one can see it. What does THAT tell you???

    Oh, on to the subject.


    I think the ad looks great. I would bid on it. BUT.......

    I have been looking at kids clothing lately on ebay (for neice and grandneice) but have not actually bought any......why? shipping. There are so many places to get GOOD used baby clothing for half (or less) of retail price that I did not find anything worth bidding on once the shipping cost was added.
