Why isn't ebay dong more to monitor seller post and their shipping fees? A small box of cards should not cost 30 dollors to ship. small as playing cards. Ebay can't explain nor can the seller justify the price of shipping and it isn't my job to print screen and provide shots of people breaking rules.
Maybe ebay should go to making sellers wait for their postings to be approved before they can post their items for sell. This way if the acts of rules being broken continue then they become permanently banned

Sellers pay fees on the total cost--including on the shipping. Shop total cost.

No fee avoidance. Sellers pay fees on total buyer payment.
No rules broken.
May be different if not USA selling.

A Flat Rate Padded Envelope from the U.S. to the UK costs $34
A 1 lb Priority Mail Express package from NW Florida to Washington State (zone 😎 costs $38.20.
How much does your item weigh, where is it shipping from (and to) and by what method?

Sellers pay fees on the entire transaction so there is no fee avoidance. You have a back button for a reason. If you aren't comfortable with a listing use it. You want eBay to review the shipping costs on every listing before those listings go live? That is just nuts.

If you think it's a crazy price, then don't buy from them.
If you think they made an error... like $30 instead of $3... you could always politely ask.
Shipping isn't just postage price. That fee avoidance you think exists doesn't. Sellers pay the same % fee on the item price and the shipping price. PayPal also charges a fee on the total amount charged.
Shipping boxes, padded/poly mailers, tape, labels, packing peanuts, bubble wrap, insurance, packing foam, plastic bags, tissue paper, printer ink/toner, etc. all cost money. I'm my own shipping department, but some have shipping staff. That's another shipping business expense (and even my time is worth money). Business expenses are ultimately paid by the buyer.

Hi!
Wanna talk about real fee avoidance?
I remember the days in past when computer monitors were being sold for a penny with $99 for shipping (it was more for CRT's).
Bye!

And thats exactly why Ebay combines 10 % price and shipping,but most smart buyers here shop total price, shipping and price combinee..you dont think the monitor should have sold for a penny do you?

Holy Moly, wow, maybe on-line shopping isn't for you.
You have left more negs than I have in 14 years with multible ID's with most over 500 feedbacks.

Red is my favorite color, however, I think the one that hit me the hardest was the .12 refund 😞
