You don't understand the story, Mam. You're making a big deal about my guess of $20. Who cares about that when I'm talking about overpaying by hundreds? A $26 charge x2 would have been a blessing compared to paying $226.58 to ship 2 air rifles that didn't weigh over 5.5 pounds each. Here's what you don't get. I purchased two shipping labels "assuming" they were for the cheapest ground shipping by default, especially because countless air rifles are sold regularly and are normally shipped by the cheapest ways available. I trusted that their system would know this. I resent your comment on my willingness to spend over $100. I can only wish I knew how much I was being charged. They never made it clear about any prices or what type of shipping I was buying. Maybe I didn't read all the fine lines and missed something, but I wasn't worried because, as I said before, I trusted their system and was sure it was going to be a reasonable price. It wasn't until after I shipped both air rifles and was looking at my online checking account figures that I noticed the 2 eBay charges for $113.26 each. I was in shock and furious. It was already too late to do anything about it. I found out the labels they sold me were for Priority Mail and automatically figured in a certain weight and package dimension. When I finally got through to a live eBay person, I was told that there was nothing they could do and that I would have to take it up with the USPS. Let me add this. I am a low-income senior and sold my two prized, rare, vintage museum quality Benjamin air rifles that really hurt to part with, especially for much less money than they're worth, just to have some extra money to help with the high heating bills. Now I'm out two prized possessions and most of the money I needed to get by. I feel totally defeated.
