> [@Pauly](#): > > WTF $25.00 for shipping??? I noticed that too. Usually the same sellers offer the same item with different prices, but the shipping offset to make it (in this case $50) So what I usually do is buy the one with the least shipping cost and higher shown price so eBay makes more money by the seller paying a higher fee. Not that I want a large company to make tons of money, but I don’t want to condone people’s scamming efforts either. None of the pics were working on the site when I went. ---
