[QUOTE="nds76, post: 53404, member: 1083"]This is from the eBay site. Excessive Shipping & Handling eBay encourages sellers to clearly describe the item and terms of shipping and delivery in their listings to avoid possible confusion. A shipping and handling fee can cover the seller's reasonable costs for mailing, packaging and handling the item. However, shipping and handling fees may not be listed as a percentage of the final sale price. i.e. Postage of $5.00 is unreasonable when only a 37 cent stamped envelope is used. When a bid is placed, the bidder is entering into an agreement with the seller to purchase the item, which most often means incurring reasonable shipping charges that may also include handling fees. In the case of disagreements between buyers and sellers regarding shipping charges, eBay encourages the parties to try to work the matter out. Violations of this policy may result in a range of actions, including: Listing cancellation Limits on account privileges Account suspension Why does eBay have this policy? This policy reduces the potential for confusion among bidders about the full cost of an item. Listings that include excessive shipping and handling fees lead to a poor buying experience and un-level the playing field by putting sellers who charge reasonable shipping and handling charges at a disadvantage. These listings undermine the trust and legitimacy of eBay’s marketplace.[/QUOTE]
