Following today's 24-hr CyberstormPPC auction maybe you should add a Buy-It-Now?

Look into my eyes... the eyes... you are feeling sleepy... you will put a Buy-It-Now of £10... when I click my finger you will awake!

Hah!

Well if there's no accesories or accelerator I'd say the Buy-It-Now should be £60.

It's going to be heavy and Parcel Force will probably charge £30 to get it sent.

How many people want a 14Mhz 2MB A1200 for £100?

Do you think I've got the postage wrong then.  I looked at someone elses recent sale for an indication of the postage costs.  
I suppose I can pop it along to the post office and get it checked out.

Hmm, I remember sending a huge wad of magazines and it cost £32 but I was mis-sold that service.

I think recently I was told there is a 3rd Class 'Standard Parcels' service which can take a week to arrive but allows for items up to 30Kg.

I think it was either £15 or £20, but I could be wrong.

Getting a box and filling it with newspapers is going to be awkward though. I know a private courier will charge £50 but they'll collect it from your house and won't hurl it about a sorting office!

I'll get it checked out tomorrow just in case.  Thanks for the advice.

@Rob

At this stage of the auction, you are unable to revise anything, so the winner is entitled to pay only the postage you set when the ad was posted.

The rule is no revisions if there are bids or no bids and less than 12 hours to go.

You could well lose out on this one!


[EDIT: Ignore. I see you did so already! Still up yon tree I'm afraid.]
