as I stated in my 1st post..it was I that foolishly bid on multipule items with out first asking if there would be a discount. The post was just a warning to other people on this board that if they bid on multipule items from you on ebay, expect to get reamed on shipping....anyway you cut it, 10 bucks shipping for 7 chips first class mail IS a ream.....simple as that..... and deserves a BUYER BEWARE
