My order keeping getting split into two orders

Question

I am trying to purchase several items from the same company. When I checkout, eBay splits the order into two orders with two seperate order numbers. The company that I am buying from asked me to reorder and keep everything on one order to keep their fees down. I did reorder and eBay split the order again. I guess my order get split based on the number of items (in this case 11) or the total cost (in this case about $18,000.00). Anyone had this issue? Is there a work around? Thanks

@cappsgj The sellers fees are hardly affected if it's just splitting into two orders. There is a transaction fee of .40 cents per order. Otherwise the sellers fees are the same and paid on the item price, shipping and sales tax that you pay.

Are you sure you are buying from a legitimate seller?

The total sales price is probably why the order is split.

If they are trying to give you discount on shipping by combing the orders to save you money and the sellers fees on the shipping then they can refund you the shipping overcharge. The sellers fees are refunded from eBay on the amount that they refund to you.
