Agreed...if it was a $5,000 card, that is actually cheap.

My guess is that you are paying for insurance on the items and not just packaging and shipping.

Absurd? Absolutely
Spelled out for all to see? Yes
Surprises? No
Frustration? Yes
Answer? If you don’t like it don’t bid or contact them before the auction ends.

When bidders see a high shipping charge for a single item like that, a lot will dismiss the auction altogether and the item will be won cheaper than if the shipping charge was say $4.00. Works in the buyers favor more times than not; at least in my experiences with items that have an excessive shiipping charge.
