If you're looking for more opinions, I wouldn't leave negative feedback on this one, you'll just get slammed back. If the seller did disclose the excessive shipping costs (even if it is in small print), it's up to you to either read through it or contact the seller for a combined rate before bidding.

I find that there are still plenty of sellers who charge reasonable rates for shipping, and I make sure to do business with them. I'm in the habit of sending each seller an e-mail after sending payment expressing how much I appreciate their combined rates. I make it clear that shipping costs are a major reason as to why I'm bidding on their stuff (and often rebidding).

Perhaps an e-mail to the seller expressing your disappointment (and the loss of your future business) will get them to budge. Good luck.
