Actually not. One would still have to pay shipping on an order from
Brickbay as well.
If I had listed these parts on Brickbay instead of on eBay, it would also
cost $2.00 to ship them. That is my minimum shipping charge for parts
packed in a padded envelope. I use a flat fee for small lots that ship
First Class. Sometimes it is more and sometimes less and the padded
envelopes cost about $0.50 each. I decided not to post these on Brickbay so
I wouldn't have to deal with used parts and new parts of the same type.
