Buying from Ebay?

Tyler Bullock · Jun 5, 2019

I am not new to the hobby.......BUT I am new to buying corals on ebay!

I am looking at purchasing some corals from Ebay. Lets say you do win multiple pieces from the same vendor. I am assuming you only have to pay one shipping fee. But on ebay it looks like you pay the shipping when you win multiples?

The simple question...

If you win multiple corals auctions on ebay, do you pay only one shipping fee?

Let me know if you have won auctions on ebay and what was the process like if you won multiples.

Thanks for the info!

Depends on the seller. Most will do combined shipping. They usually put it in the shipping description. If not in the description, just message and ask.

I will not buy from any seller that will not do combined shipping.

when you buy from @WWC on ebay the extra shipping will be refunded. As for other vendors I'm sure its very similar but can't speak from experience. The first couple times I won a WWC auction I ebay made me check out before I could buy anymore, meaning I had to pay for shipping 2 or 3 times, but WWC went ahead and refunded the extra shipping.

When you contact the seller to ask about combined shipping make sure you give then the items number that you want to buy and get their ok in writing. If something goes wrong, It makes it easier when contacting paypal. Larger companies won't be much of an issue but with the smaller seller (out of their garage) it might be a problem
