I never could understand Sellers that charged very little for their item ,but killed the buyer with shipping/handling fees. I guess they got more views with a lower starting price, but I look at the whole picture when purchasing an item.

Heck, I use priority mail and they provide the boxes and tape, it is not like I can't produce some newspaper to wrap the items in (if they need it). Some sellers take advantage of new buyers IMHO with small details on shipping/handling costs. That is a shame.

I wish ebay included the shipping in the total price, so when you are browsing through all the items, you don't click on one that looks low only to be deceived by how expensive it really is with shipping added.

I know and I have come across items for a penny with a very high shipping fee. It was plain the seller was circumventing the fees.
