Seems to me the issue here is with ebay allowing the asking prices/shipping prices to be changed after the initial post.

AND he change the shipping prices higher too! There were no bids yet. It is a little known fact but a seller can change min bid, BIN, and reserve prices up or down at any time during an auction as long as there are no bids and at least 12 hours remaining. I still cant believe he honestly still thought I would buy them after he did that that little trick. That one is for the record books as the dumbest salesman of all time. And I KNOW he still thought I would buy them because for one thing he still replied to my question and secondly he even sent me some new pix via email that I didn't even request to help make the sale!
