Auction houses IMO should always give some kind of estimate on shipping for large items. I bid on a Hunt auction lot where they show a pic of about 10 items that said something like "Large lot of memorabilia".....I was a little surprised with the shipping charges, but I figure I bid without asking so I went ahead and paid without question. When the lot arrived it showed up in 5 large boxes with about 100+ items. I think I paid about $30 for the lot and $80 shipping. I was okay with the lot, but whenever I see lots like that Hunts now I generally avoid them.
