Shipping charges
Beautiful machine - only costs $15,850.00 to ship. Maybe I'll buy a plane ticket, take a vacation and pick this up. Ha!

Must be a typo or a scam!!
LOOKs like it was corrected to $16.00 for shipping $25.36 to US |
Hehehehe!!!!
|
LOL! I think I could skip that one! Probably is a scam and Ebay will eventually remove it.
|
For that I could fly there spend a couple weeks and bring it home with me - maybe they think the price will be low , so they will make the money off of shipping it ?
|
Wonder what the charge would be for overnight delivery.......

or hand delivery?!?!?! |
I bet you were in shock when you saw it, weren't you? hehehe! Glad they got it corrected. Might have cost them a sale.
|
talk about sticker shock i just looked at it did not see any correction
|
And only 15 - 20 business days for shipping. What a bargain!
|
It pays to read the fine print! Makes me wonder how many people have gotten suckered that way - they think they found a great deal and buy it quickly, only to realize too late that the shipping is gonna bite them.
|
I think they just dont want to bother packing it for international shipping. For delivery within the UK the cost is £16 or free if you collect it , which seems reasonable.
|
You have to ship it in small packets too.lol
|
That seller has a bad feedback record (98% is not good), so maybe it wasn't an error, but a trap for an unobservant buyer.
|
I emailed Seller and asked if this was a mistake. Surprise - no reply!!
|
Amazing! I didn't see any correction either. Did you notice that there are "0" bids as well...imagine that!
|
I did not see any correction either.

Got a reply from Seller!
"Hi, You're right, it was a mistake but it was deliberate. Ebay wouldn't allow me to advertise globally without a shipping cost listed. It wouldn't be possible to put a price that would apply to every country in the world as it varies greatly, so as it says in the listing "please email me for a quote on shipping". The cheapest option is £100 and would take up to 30 days. Next is £120 tracked and taking 5-9 days. Thanks |
