Why do people charge for shipping on $100 cards? Seriously.
I saw a $525 card, and shipping is $5.00. Really? Why?

The simple answer is because they can.
Where is the magic line? Shipping a $525 card first class insured costs $10.10 to ship from St Paul, MN to St Louis, MO. That means he's already picking up over half the tab to get it to you, much less what it takes to list the card, sell the card, and pay the paypal fees. Do you routinely knock 10-35% off the profits at your work?
Exactly what I was going to say. I normally slap a $4 flat rate shipping rate on my stuff, then add $1 for anything else added to a combined order. Under normal circumstances the most I'll charge is $5 for shipping.
I agree with the op. Shipping should be free !
And while we're at it, listing on ebay should be free, and when something sells there should be no charge (FREE), and using paypal should be free. In fact, if someone is trying to sell a card and I want it, it should be free ! I mean wtheck, they're trying to get rid of it and I want it.

skuse me but your sarcasm just dripped off my screen and ran down into my keyboard and shorted it out.....could you please pm me your address so i know where i can send the bill for my new pc ?
Shipping is not free. And if a card goes for big $ then the seller should send insured. Ebay clips sellers with final value fee and then clips then again through paypal. Why shouldn't a seller cover their shipping costs?
