Can this person do this? Charge .99 buy it now and then charge so much shipping. Seems this person is trying to avoid the eBay fees. I reported some of his items but does eBay do anything?

Woah, this seller is out of my high school town. Thats some weird crap.

Anyway, I thought ebay charges fees on the price of shipping as well as the price of the item these days anyway?

I'm on the hunt for any and all:
Game & Watch games and memorabilia.

PM me if you can help a brotha get way into a slice of any of these.
Thanks in advance!

You can't avoid fees that way anymore. eBay takes a cut out shipping too. It's probably just a way to attract people to his page with a low BIN.

I bet he is ignorant to this.

It is a great way to get horrible feeback and still pay the same fees.

Yeah, this guy is an idiot. He will get never get top-rated and pay the same fees as everyone else.

Also, love people who say things like "game works perfectly, but is sold as is" <--WTF is that supposed to mean?

If a few people reported him for miscategorization, he would probably get suspended, but some of his prices are pretty good.

I thought this thread was about chicken nuggets and fries, damn! Fooled again by the internet! Either way, this is going to bite him in the ass sooner or later. As some of you already said, his "prices" aren't all that awful but he's still misleading people and he should get reported but I'm lazy and I want chicken nuggets. That is all.
