They are not a "responsible" for the "sticky hands" of their employee's and contractors THUS they are not a "responsible" company in my view!!!!

I called and here is how it works:

They have a third party that packs the items up. They then send you a shipping quote.

You have to confirm that item can be shipped. Most, but not all items are available to ship.

I agree that it isn't the most clear set up.

My recommendation is to call if you have any questions.

Remember there is a buyer's premium you'll pay on top of the overall total bid cost. I'd assume shipping will be marked up as well.
