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......
