Yes. Having been using (buying & selling) ebay since 1998 (before they went public) I find that in the last 1-2 years people have opted to charge a premium for shipping. Some are fair, I mean shipping is not cheap, but some are way overpriced. What really galls me is when someone charge $8 for shipping and I wind up receiving it via 1st class mail in a 50 cent cushioned envelope with $1.50 postage on it.. But such is life. When I sell I only charge postage. Generally a fixed rate and will indicate overseas bidders should email me for an approximate charge.

Has anyone noticed an increasing number of eBay seller who charge excessive shipping rates? Someone on this list accurately described these sellers as eBay bottom feeders.
I think we need to keep this descriptive adjective alive and well when we come acrossed an unreasonable ebay seller whose postage is out of sight.
