Where are you seeing that? What other seller? Do you think there are two sellers on Discogs?

I get you're taking the piss but you sound stupid.

Dude complained that he bought a CD from some other random seller and was charged 50 cents less for shipping so I passive aggressively sent him a 50 cent refund.

Yes. 50 cents less for better shipping.

Other seller = $4.50 for 1st class mail
You = $5 for ****tier shipping
Also you = $8 for 1st class mail

Sounds like you're gouging.

I already explained that we charge a flat $5 fee for anything domestic. Dude could have ordered 13 records for that. He only ordered a CD, which rarely happens, so my partner upgraded to first class because it's based on weight. First class actually costs more in postage. It's like going from $3.33 to $4.20. That other seller makes 30 cents to pay for packaging and handling. We charge $5 because our mailers cost us $1.20 each which leaves us with 53 cents profit that gets obliterated everytime someone orders more than one item. Weight goes up. Postage goes up.

You're not understanding the concept of shipping and handling. Also, there are thousands of sellers on discogs. I know a guy in Europe that ships to the US for 5 euro. No idea how he does it because it costs me $23.50 to ship there. He either takes a huge loss or he has a discounted shipping service.

Shipping charges aren't standardized. They're case by case depending on materials used.

Also, the ****tier shipping is the cheapest for the buyer, not for me. Once you go over 8 ounces, first class is out, media mail is available at $3.33 or you can go priority for like $7.60.

Do I lecture you on how to cook a ****ing whopper?

Now why didn't you say all that before instead of being evasive?

I was challenging you to do the research.

I got off work yesterday and got in my truck to go disc golfing, it was sunny and mild, I turned on Sirius to the Deep Tracks station and this came on:

Still a favorite after hearing it 40 years ago. It reminded me of how I'd feel when I was a kid listening to FM radio and Ozzy would come on and I'd somehow feel connected to other people in a shared experience. Kind of exhilarating actually.
