    A lot of people who sell on ebay do. It's idiots like this who screw over other, honest sellers. They are the reason ebay now charges you a 10% fee on your shipping cost.

    Right, so there's a 10% fee on the sale price AND the shipping charge....what is the seller trying to get away with? He is going to get hit with $18 or $19 in fees either way, right?

    Unless things have changed in the past year or two, that's not the case. I use to sell quite a bit on ebay and when I did, they didn't take the shipping charges were not counted towards the final value fee. Paypal would take 2.9% however...

    It's a pity Ebay allows this sort of thing. It would be nice if someone could buy it for $1, refuse to pay the $200 shipping that he is asking and only pay exactly what it costs.
