Default Auction houses- when will they get a clue?

A few months ago I bought an item in an auction from Heroes of Sports auction, a nice Fatima T200 St. Louis AL team card in a PSA holder. I immediately paid for the item then, to my chagrin, read many posts on this board about 54 members who were not charged anything for shipping since this was their initial auction offering. Taking a cue from a couple of guys here I called and later wrote a couple of letters to HOS letting them know that it was only a matter of around $10 but I'd appreciate it if they would reimburse me for the shipping charge I paid. Nada.
The bottom line is I will never bid in another of their auctions based on principle. I realize I am just one bidder but this a heck of a way to do business, especially for a new outfit starting up.
