I have a large 1.5 kg. antique book for sale. The book is reasonably worn with a few loose pages, but rare subject matter that is highly sought after by specialist collectors. The following is a message I recieved. How many pages ?Are they legible ?My wife recently worked at our local Post Office for years and was wondering why the postage charge is so high ? If it was more reasonable I would seriously condsider buying this book. ( with taking into account your answers to my first two questions ). regards ..... At 1.5 kg. the cheapest option for mailing this book is a 3 kg. satchel. I use express post and charge $14.60 at which cost I actually lose money when ebays commission on postage is taken into account. ...........If the potential buyers wife really did work in a post office she would know all of this, so I call bo!!ocks to that story. Result, the buyer did not even get an answer to the question ( although I did feel like writing one, explaining that a bit of courtesy in questions gets a much better response ). Result .... the buyer went straight to my blocked buyer list on 3 accounts and will never purchase anything from me or even send me another message. Maybe I have just got my grumpy pants on, but I just dont want to deal with people like that. They are more trouble than they are worth.
