    I do think it's a bit harsh that you can't charge for postage on certain things. I bought a book recently for 99p and the seller couldn't charge postage. When I got the book I noticed it cost them £1.64 (or there abouts) to post out to me so I contacted them and sent them the postage cost through paypal as well. I don't think it's fair that you can't charge postage for some items but they should maybe cap it so people don't get ripped off.

    they listed at 99p to avoid fee's
    all they had to do is include the postage in their start price
    its not free postage,its inclusive postage so its a dim seller who sells at a loss

    I realise that now, I was just being honest and treating people how i'd like to be treated myself although I know the possibility of that is slim :D
