Just noticed, while scrolling through some e-bay postings, the shipping fees of these 2 companies/business's. (for us CDN's)
Looking at this first card of Gene Hermanski for .99c with one bid, it shows a shipping fee of $20.00 dollars.

The next card of Billy Loes shows a shipping fee of $65.00 with 2 bids but still a total of .99 cents.

I have seen PWCC charge shipping based on the price they receive for cards so without bidding on the Loes card, I already know the one bidder has likely bidded up this card to a much higher level than the .99 cents.
Not that there's anything wrong with that as he likely wants the card somewhat badly, but I am surprised, without the high bid being shown, that PWCC has already upped the shipping fee to $65.00.
The $65 shipping fee already tells me there is no point in bidding on this card as it likely quite a bit higher than I am willing to pay.
As an aside, when did shipping fees become so pricey? I remember when PWCC had a stationary/one time fee of $15.00 dollars, now it is through the roof depending on how much a crd sells for?
I assume/know, it is for insurance purposes, but this is getting way out of hand imo!
Probstein never sold to CDN's so I assume he is now willing too if one wants to pay the $32.00 dollars he now charges to ship up here.

Just a rant coming from a frustrated CDN buyer.
