Default OT: Excessive shipping - does ebay care?

Does ebay care anymore about excessive shipping fees? I know they used to have a policy on it, but since they are now taking a cut of the shipping charge as well, do they care?

More to my point, I thought I would report such a case to ebay. The item was almost 40 smaller-than-tobacco sized cards. Open bid of $9.99 not even met with about 1 day left. Expedited priority shipping listed as $15.60 and oh yeah, $15.55 for ECONOMY shipping for something that can VERY SECURELY shipped in a small, flat-rate priority box seems a bit... excessive (IMO).

I went to use the "Report item" link, but it doesn't seem that you can use this to report anything about shipping. I can see why ebay doesn't care since they now get their cut, but I thought they still had a policy against charging excessive shipping costs.
