I have no problem with paying for shipping..... whatever the cost if I
really want an item... and it is realistic to ship too, and I've seen
very few ham items that wouldnt be realistic to ship if I wanted them
bad enough (even the old HT-32 transmitters or DX 100s or Apache's etc)
What hurts for me is the pickup only items. I have seen lots of
items posted that I would love to have bought .. and likely would have
... except for the "pickup here only" notation slapped on them
I just sigh and go on dreaming......
