   Dang it, Sellam, even when you agree with me I don't like it!  ;)

   Really, though, isn't your hint exactly what I said in the quoted 
paragraph?

   True facts.  If it's a bigger-ticket item - over $100 - I can eat a 
little loss on S&H.  If it's a huge item, it's even simpler.  "I will 
help load this into whatever truck appears at my garage door."  If it's 
something I'm selling cheap and not to a list-member or friend, I'm not 
about to end up losing money on the sale, or taking half an hour to 
gross $12USD.
