Good point on the red flag. I have pickups at my house occasionally but leave a note in the mailbox for my mail person to come to the front door to pick the boxes up.........and only when I am home already.

As a seller, I see Ebay and Paypal fees as a cost of doing business on my end. I DO get annoyed when I am told I also should be covering more of the general S&H charges myself or somebody e-mails me and tells me that they can ship so and so for a buck..........so I should be able to also.

Overall, my goal is to break even in that area each month........and I usually fail miserably at it.
