Ebay is changing my correct package weight (I use a scale). I'm losing money!

There is a new thing on the weight of the package where Ebay actually uses it's own "estimate" and changes the actual weight of the package.  This has happened many times to me.  When the item sells, the buyer pays the ebay estimate, not the ACTUAL weight.  I am losing money on every sale!  Should we all take Ebay to small claims court for cheating us?

So while the issue may have stemmed from something to do with eBay's listing form, the info was visible and ultimately you didn't review your listing to make sure all was good before/after hitting publish. 

Is there a way to review the finalized listing weight and dimensions? All I see is the listing's shipping cost estimate.

I always round up if it’s 2.5 I will round up to 3 pounds lately. They have been under weighing. I had a box of glasses going out that I put 5 pounds. I went to ship it out and it’s 3 pounds now I have to pay a buck 80 more and I’m really not sure what is going on, but I am not the only one having this issue

I have that same exact issue as of recent. Using a scale and even making dimensions at least an inch bigger on each side. They are crooks out to get more money!
