Transformer toys shipping on eBay ???

Hey guys ,
I was just checking eBay on some transformers I missed out on last year , and I cannot belive what most of the States side seller want for shipping .

I mean come on for a legends Megatron buy it now15.99 ok .... But wait 24.25 to ship to Canada .
Ok try a few other sellers same figure , 15 to 32 dollars . Human alliance figures are like 30 to 50 for shipping , anf deluxe are 20 to almost 40 .
If you live in the states shipping is like from 3 to maybe 15 dollars .

I have not bought TFs off eBay in about a year , what happend ??
I have been buying car parts off and on and shipping is half that for items twice the size and ten times heavier .

I really can not wait for Tfcon , can buy so much more without having to pay shipping.

Re: Transformer toys shipping on eBay ???

i actually just recieved a very small tf from the states that cost me 11$ and the shipping (according to ebay) was gonna b $20. when i asked the seller why shipping was so much he replied to me "it shouldn't be that much, i think e-bay calculated the shipping cost wrong" and they did, it was much cheapr to ship so he rebated me 13$ of the $20 and it was still delivered 1st class. so it might be wrong estimates from ebay, might b a good idea to ask the seller about shipping costs.

For single items I usually pay about $4-6. Just gotta ask the seller.

I've run into this lots, and most of the time it is an eBay issue. Sometimes it is a douchey seller, but you have to ask them to find out.

Found a nice American seller last week, I initially got charged $18 to ship DOTM Voyager Skyhammer, Deluxe Topspin, Cyberverse Mudflap + Crowbar + Ratchet + Leadfoot with USPS and I ended up getting a $6 refund.

The other day I asked a guy how much to ship a single Micromaster, he said it would cost me 32$

I refused to pay.
