Thanks!
I understand that this is a bit of a "rant thread" and that's cool. However, I think that the lesson you should take away from your recent bad experiences is if you want something held for you while you make other inquiries, you should explicitly ask the seller to do that.
The Fuchs wheel sale, on the other hand... that's just poor form by the seller.
The correct action in the circumstances is to quote such an outrageous price for shipping that the buyer either (a) backs out of the transaction, or (b) pays the inflated shipping price, resulting in an extra profit for the seller over and above the asking price.
(Yes, that last part was tongue-in-cheek)
