Postage due on ebay purchases???

[novakjr]

I know there was a thread last week about sellers asking for extra shipping charges after an item's been paid for. But I ran into a whole new situation.

I won two small lots on ebay last week, the seller combined shipping at a decent price, and they were delivered today. Only problem was they came with postage due. It was only 84 cents and not really a huge deal, but seriously, WTF???

I won't judge the seller, because sometime fluky things like this just happen. But I'm left wondering how long until sellers try to get away with sh!t like this? Sellers can basically go around ebay, and used the post office to make sure people are stuck paying extra for shipping, while they pocket the rest.. It's small change, but it could add up after a while.
