"Could I get cheaper shipping than that?"

[canuckchat]

Ah, you have to love customers that want to get cheaper something. So I did have to ask the person inquiring - the shipping is Free - how do you get cheaper than free?

[brett_the_tech]

LMAO. Thats funny

How about....

Everything free.....  

or even

You should pay them to buy it......

Nobody reads anymore.  They just ask for everything free (or cheaper) on principle. 

Of course, along the lines 'cumos' suggests, you could run a "consumer experiment" some day and say to a buyer who is purchasing a $10 item with free shipping and say: "Well, OK, how about this?  I'll pay you $10 to take it off my hands, how about that, would that be considered cheap enough?", and see if they'd try to bargain your offer up.

I had a wonderful buyer ask for cheaper shipping after the purchase and I sent him a link to the CP pricing. He then said would complete the sale. Of course, he filed INR so he could get it totally free. It would have been cheaper if I had just refunded and not sent. Would have saved postage, still had the item, and still have the 1 defect. He was from Hawaii. Buyers from all over are learning how to play the game for freebees.

And those are the guys who go on the Blocked Bidder List "on principle".
