"will ship at buyer's risk and expense"


Does anyone here on Audiogon actually fall for this?
I've seen ads like this on eBay, now I'm seeing them here. I'd never agree to any deal including this stipulation!
Dealing with the shipping companies is difficult enough.
At least they have one logical rule: The shipper files & follows through on any damage/loss claim.
The seller insures the package, for full value if they're smart/responsible. The seller eats any loss. That's the way it is.

My take on those adds:

1. The seller does not advise shipping...WARNING

2. If you want it bad enough to skip the warning then fine...I'm interested in the money and will let you take your chances.

3. Don't expect your money back from my pocket should something bad happen.

I'm with Newbee...I pass on these products. I would not sell in this manor myself though...my add would state pickup only for these types of components...I hate risk and or problems in my dealings.
