When you bid on an eBay item the shipping that you will be charged is right on the item page. No surprises at all. All you have to do is read it in bold script right below the item price. If you are searching items, or saving item to your My eBay, it also shows you what the seller is charging. Why are people 'surprised' at what they get billed at the end of the auction then? I have a little advice for anyone bidding on items on eBay; If you do not like the shipping charges that are clearly posted then do not bid. If you do decide to bid, then don't be surprised when you get charged exactly what the quote was that you saw before you bid.
