Christine - I don't think James was pointing a figure at you he was just stating that there are several sellers who charge way over the normal shipping costs so they can make extra money on the item they are selling, if you look at a lot of auctions on eBay they are asking $5 to $10 shipping and then send it for less than a buck. Myself I won't bid on an item that has over priced shipping and I also think that going to the post office and standing in line is part of being a seller,and yes I have been and still am a seller and have never charged more than the cost of postage and insurance if it was asked for or I required it.
