Bullbar, I do understand where you are coming from, however I think you are lumping everyone into the same catagory...and that is not necessarily so! I have been overcharged in shipping maybe one or two times out of probably over a hundred purchases and I don't think I have ever charged anyone anymore than the true cost of shipping when I sell here in the US or when I ship overseas! There are more honest sellers out there than dishonest ones. BTW, we also have a shipping bag that is priority mail, one price, whatever you can put in it!
