    Why does it annoy you? The postage cost is clear.
    Happy chappy
  • He is not the first or the last to sell in this way ! It does not bother me as long as I am happy with the overall price ..cant see why it should worry you unless you are Mr Ebay!
    I have had brain surgery - sorry if I am a little confused sometimes ;)

    Maybe it's being delivered on a Gold plated platter by an entourage of circus performers?

    because he is avoiding paying fees which the rest of us rule abiding people pay.

    For postage that much i hope he is crawling to his nearest post office naked :eek:

    I wonder what he would do if someone wanted to collect it themselves if they lived in the area? that would spoil his plan.

    Maybe someone should ask him if they could collect and see what he says :rotfl:

    Best of luck to the seller. Ebay doesn't have any rules about maximum postage costs, yet.

    I just sent the seller an email about collecting the item to save all that postage on this item - 8250001569

    Will be interesting to see his answer, he seems to do this on all his stuff!!

    He is being a bit blatant about it...

    but the overall price is just the same as you'd find in the shops.
