Ignore eBay's suggested package size and weights! | Shipping

I highly recommend IGNORING eBay's weight and package sizes on the listing tool when you see them. I have no clue where they come up with them but in my case I would price myself right out of the ballpark with extremely inflated shipping costs. Screen shot below, my weight and box dimensions are more than sufficient for the item in question yet eBay suggests weight and dimensions that would add surcharges and cost a Buyer an arm and a leg to pay for shipping. If they are grabbing info from other Sellers then at least my item will have a MUCH LOWER shipping cost displayed ... silver lining?!? Hmmmm ... makes one wonder.
