That’s a big scam on eBay, too.

An item costs $1.99 but shipping is $50.

It’s called fee avoidance.

There’s a pair of boots in the UK just like ones I already have [I want a spare pair...LOL] but the shipping is more than the boots.

It costs $60 to ship boots from England?

We shipped an entire several-hundred-pound trike kit to Ireland for less than $600.

They sure must use heavy shoe boxes.

Did you check the fine print? Maybe the order includes some free bowling balls :-).

I package and mail things, and I know how much it costs. $5 to mail a bumper sticker? Give me a break!
