Gary, I just saw the last line in your post. That's exactly what I was suggesting.

Gary, Jill (the op) was specifically refering to a buyers having multiple auction wins not multiple buy-nows.

Another way of looking at it is thinking of online shopping. If an online store added shipping to your order every time you added an item to your shopping cart rather than at the checkout - and then someone has to manually intervene to correct the shipping cost - that's how TM currently works - and it's wrong.

You can have have as many shipping options as you like, but as Jill says, the buyer doesn't know when they place their bids what auctions they'll be successful on. It's a real weak point of TM. Buyers should be able to select the appropriate shipping options AFTER the auctions close. It's just common sense, but it'll never happen. :)

Thanks Flossy. Interesting you mention My Products as that also has the ability to add tracking info to sales - but adding the tracking info outside of My Products doesn't update within My Products. But other things like placing feedback do update My Products (after some delay).

All TM have to do is add one simple option to the end of auction process - ADD TO CART  !!!! The seller would then be notified that the buyer is waiting for more auctions to close - and they don't have to do anything else. Once the buyer is ready to complete the deal they simply checkout their cart - JUST LIKE ANY OTHER WEBSITE !!! If the seller has pre-loaded shipping options then the buyer can choose from these - otherwise there's a 'REQUEST SHIPPING COST' option  - just like the other big global auction site.
