Who pays shipping when the amount listed on the item is WAY off?

If a seller lists a price for shipping as 99.00 but the lowest shipping price you can find is over 1K, who pays? Is the seller responsible for shipping no matter the cost or does the buyer absorb that cost? If I offered a high price for the item expe...
