Ubid.com Complaint - Ubid's shipping scam
Complaint
Ubid sells "a genuine Italian leather coat" for a silly price (1$ !) They charge $38.99 for shipping (light and medium sized package !) I receive the item, and it is a piece of garbage, made in you-know-where. So, even if I wanted to go through the Ubid's "return process ", I would lose $38.99, plus a 15% restocking fee (not much in this case, but when you buy a $1000 TV....). And they would sell it again, I'm sure, to next sucker, for another $40 bucks. Actually, I noticed that practice on Ubid before(glass items sold for a buck, over $30 shipping, Ubid has this little scam polished.
So, I keep my genuine Italian coat, to remind me that greed is not always rewarded. (does not apply to Ubid and similar operations, they live off greed.)And, when they sell legitimate stuff, they do not come even close in price to places like Newegg, or Amazon.

Their shipping prices may be a bit high, but you seem to think shipping costs should be based on price paid no matter what the wight of the product is.

You thought you could get a good leather coat for $1.00? Come on! Surely you knew this was a scam from the get go! If you want a discounted coat I suggest you shop at Ross for Less, Marshall's or T. J. Maxx.

I have spent more on shipping than on the products themselves. Why does not some agency stop these ripoffs, products i understand for a dollar are good gag gifts but not worth the shipping costs.
