Also, knowing myself what it costs to ship similar with insurance included. Not about the money, just the principle of it all – and inconsistent with what I see as standard and customary. If an eBay seller listed $20 as shipping charges for one card under $500 – would you be inclined to leave a five star review? Would that affect how much are going to bid on it - if at all? At least in that forum you know what to expect since it's noted, here it's more like "open a surprise" when the invoice shows up.
Anyway, thanks for your feedback – interesting to see other perceptions/takes on this.

If I shipped you the card via priority mail and it included $300 insurance and signature confirmation, it would cost me $12.40. If I shipped it via 1st class mail with the same "add-ons" it would be WAY less...
