Just had a look at the other item for sale too. How can he get away with this??

Looks like he is trying to trying to avoid fees.
Will be interesting what his rating for postage and packaging will be once he gets 10 detalied seller ratings.

You're very rude.
If everyone blatantly avoided fees like this seller then ebay will just keep increasing them.
Ebay need to make money too.

Ye
mmm

Ebay will charge as much as they can possibly get away with.

If its so important then don't buy.

EVEN IF THE TOTAL IS CHEAPER.

Ebay don't need an excuse for raising their fees, they're just outright greedy.

When they raised their FVF from 5.25% to 10% I rose all my postage by 75p.

For a next day courier I'd say that's reasonable actually.

Of course they probably should just take it to the post office, but it's not always possible.

If the OP and others could tell us what the postage cost should be? Of course you would have to know how much it weighs, which courier he is using etc. If he is able to send after 3pm he is not using a web reseller.

I sold one of these after Christmas last year as my son had been bought two Thomas the Tank ones... I charged £4 postage.

I don't understand the point of this thread, was it just an observation while looking on eBay, or was it something the op actually wanted to purchase, if so then just find it elsewhere cheaper. Don't let it bother you and move on.
