Shipping Ripoff

I was looking at an auction site for a movie. I saw a bunch of 25 movies that included the one I'm looking for going cheap and checked it out. I saw they were not far away so I checked on instore pickup, (*bear in mind this is a storefront not a home biz) They wanted to charge 5.00 for me to drive over and pick them up. What a crock. On top of this they add sales tax. (that is no big deal) but 5.00 so they don't have to ship it.

  You said that there were 25 movies and you only wanted one and maybe a couple more.
  When you get to the store see if they will be willing to keep the other 20 movies you won in exchange for the 5.00 fee.
  I did not bid because the instore pickup charge. I asked before I bid . I was bothered by thefact they did not specify it in the description but I emailed and asked about picking it up as I go through their town 2X a week. I do not mind paying a handling fee when in fact they do something to earn it such as packing and taaking it to the PO but to pay for them to wait until I drove up to get it is something else. As for shipping handgus for less than 20.00 unless you have an FFL your out of luck. UPS insists they go Next day air which almost guarentees 25.00-30.00 The Post office won't let you ship a pistol unless you have an FFL.
