    No, thats out of order to do that .If postage and packing is clearly stated and you dont like it DONT BID .There are always plenty of others auctions you could bid on.Ebay charges a lot and paypal charges again(even includes your postage on what it takes out) so why should sellers lose out? If you want actual postage costs ask seller to reduce them as it is putting you off bidding.People have asked me before and if its going for the average price it should i will but if it is 1p (like i have on a lot of my auctions) i will not reduce..cant believe the gaul of some people who win items for 1p and then complain about £3 postage!!
    So to OP no just put up & shut up! ...LOL

    Not reading through the whole thread, but my motto on the whole 'Overcharged postage' idea is that you could clearly see the postal costs before purchashing, if you thought they were way over the top you should find another auction.

    To be honest I have to have my postal costs inflated these days as I don't mind the fees from PayPal but eBay charge a final value fee on every item and it just keeps getting bigger and bigger :(
