excessive shipping charges

a seller wants $15.41 s/h charges for 5 free product coupons good for $5 each - isn't that against Ebay's policies?

First of all you can't even have 5 frees at one time, the limit per auction is 2. So somone will probably report that.

And no she can't charge that much for shipping, she can get reported for that too.

SOmeone doesn't follow the rules,


PS I assumed they were all in one auction?

If you really want the items, I'd email the seller and ask if there is a typo for the shipping amount. That happens.

If not a typo or they do not reply or change the amount, I 'd report the sellers at the bottom of each item description.

As a seller, I'd think they would want to protect themselves from getting a 'zero' on the new feedback rating system (for excessive shipping and handling charges) as that could end their selling on eBay.

I think they have the shipping so high because they pay final value on the amount of the sale, not the shipping. I hate that, I don't report them, I just don't buy from them.

I don't like those kind of sellers with high shipping. And, yes, I do report them.
