I have been watching some of the special auctions that Amazon has been having.

One set is charging the highest shipping prices I have ever seen. $15 for a 1 pound item. $40 for a 4 pound item. etc. Unbelievable.

Another set have fine print authorizing a 10% buyers premium on top of the price and shipping.

My business continues to hold it's own although I have branched out some. Higher priced items have been selling (surprizingly!). But I sure wish for the Good Old Days.

edited to try to conform to AW rules about naming auctions -- although these are run in some kind of association with Amazon themselves so I am not sure of the exact rules.
