I agree, this isn't ebay that I have the problem with, it's the greedy sellers. I saw a listing for some splash OEGB eggs, and the same seller has blue OEGB as well. Both were at starting bid of $2.99 (for 8+) with shipping of $12 something. I emailed the seller to see how much combined shipping would be on both auctions, and they told me it would be half the shipping price for the second set. It does not cots $17 to ship 1-2 dozen bantam eggs!! At most (if they know what they're doing) it should cost about $10. That would be if they were on the west coast, and I don't believe they were. It's just someone trying to get the most for what they have. Like I said, the only extra I charge on mine is $1-$2 for packing materials, but I also charge 'actual' shipping, which make mine even cheaper. I just don't understand. Needless to say, that seller had to relist both their auctions, cause they didn't even get one bid. They sure won't from me! Not until they lower their shipping costs.

Using a FR Box, I can ship 3 dozen eggs from GA to CA for $14.95, that is double boxed and packed very well........

I charge that much for shipping....but it costs me about $10 to ship out every box or $10.50 if I use the flat rate boxes. Then I factor in the cost of packaging tape, printer ink for the shipping label, my time to box up the eggs, bubble wrap, egg cartons, etc and I might make $1 in the whole deal.

You want to talk about overpriced shipping on eBay? I bought 6 dresses, the seller is in Thailand, he charged me $40 to ship the 6 small dresses in a manila envelope, and I saw how much it actually cost him- $22 !! He made a huge profit on the shipping! I was so mad! The listings said $8 to ship each dress, how is that "combined shipping"??

That is awesome! I WILL NOT show it to DH because he will want to get one or will make one!!! Maybe I could get one and have him motorize it!!! 25 miles is a long way to pedal. Guess my rump shaving would go a lot quicker though!!!
