<P>Build the cost of shipping into your auction. Make it reasonable -- charge,
say, a fixed $3 per bidder -- but be flexible if someone buys something that
cost them $3 and only costs $1 to ship.</P>
<P>In overseas arrangements, sometimes it works best if you can exchange LEGO<SUP><FONT SIZE="-2">®</FONT></SUP>
for LEGO<SUP><FONT SIZE="-2">®</FONT></SUP> and each pay shipping on your end. After all, most non-U.S. sets
are in available in Europe, and most U.S.-only sets are not. See what you
can work out.</P>
<P>Declare your shipping fee intentions clearly in your opening announcement.
Some examples:<UL TYPE="BULLET">
<LI>"Free shipping if you live in the U.S. Otherwise, you pay shipping."</LI>
<LI>"Fixed $3 shipping fee if you live in the U.S."</LI>
<LI>"Buyer pays shipping."</LI>
</UL></P>
<P>When it comes time to settle up, there should be no surprises.</P>
