I have a buyer who won a heavy necklace with best offer. I charge $6.75 for priority mail. She wants me to charge that much to ship it all the way to Europe. Usps wants $25.25, which is what I told her I would charge if she doesn't want to use GSP. Now she is belly aching that others charge less. She got it for $50 less than list price. I'm not eating another $20 in shipping costs.
Just gets annoying when ppl don't get it.
Rant over.

GSP or no deal... And that's the only way I'll go. If they don't want to pay it they can go find somebody else to buy it from.

If it's gold you better be careful, it's against shipping policy in many foreign countries, including the UK. If she is in one of those countries you may want to open a case to get the sale cancelled. Just don't cancel it yourself. Here is a list of all the countries. Click the one she's from and see what the prohibitions are regarding precious metals, jewelry etc. Index of Countries and Localities

It's a silver necklace Digg, with no stones. She finally said she would pay the full shipping, and then never did. :-(

Necklace left yesterday. Actually, it worked out better for me. It cost $25.25 to ship. Because we only went through PP, ebay didn't charge me a shipping charge. Yay.
