Hello! Please be sure to check MDCon's eBay Store for this week's additions! Proceeds go to supporting the MDCon Project and future shows!
The prices and 'Free Shipping' are changing on September 1st. There is a currently running sale of 5% on many items that include free shipping. The 5% sale was a test to see if it attracted more attention, not necessarily sales.

My price calculations in most cases were my cost + estimated shipping with the sum being multiplied eBays estimated fees.
Well, I have some hard numbers now. And unfortunately, my estimations were off. Hard evidence shows them now to be closer to 25%, not the 15% I estimated.
Some items in order to have any value to the buyer, must be placed below my acquisition cost, and I understand that. I will make adjustments on those items which can be directly compared e.g. US Shipper, Shipping Fees, etc.
Please expect 'Free Shipping' to go away in September. My free shipping cannot compete with foreign shipping prices, especially out of Asia. It is a hard truth. However, I will use the cheapest option available USPS purchased through eBay.
I try to never display items that do not work at the show. Those that have proven to not work reliably will be put up for Auction soon. These include Bookshelf devices, Decks and such.
Please do reach out off eBay and we can talk about a discount that does not include eBay fees. I cannot negotiate a lower price there. Of course, I cannot say this there!
