just ALWAYS look at the shipping info

one thing ebay could do, is show you what the total will be on the order confirmation page....right after you click buy, it tells you what the total will be before you decide to purchase it

sellers have been doing this for years, nothing new....just ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS remember to check the shipping before buying, and remember you can usually get it cheaper via mysimon or pricewatch

No its called being a SCUM BAG. If you think you are being smart by doing this then you truly do not understand the concept of sales. I can not tell you how many sellers lose business because any buyer with a clue sees instantly the jacked up fees, and says "This dude is a douche bag".

I have a 100% feedback (start: Mar 1998) rating on eBay because I treat people fairly when buying and selling. Charge the shipping/packaging it costs to ship an item and stop trying to knife people in the back out of your own greed.
