I wasnt too impressed with a seller who recently said that he had charged an additional fee of $5.00 for having to fill out that little green customs sticker that goes on an international package. Its no wonder that eBay have been trying to crack down on sellers who gouge on postage.

Same here, Evan... it is also okay for your address' postman to pick it up, rather than standing in line at the P.O. Fortunately, the workers know me by sight in this small town, and I'm okay to just wink or nod and pass the folks in line and leave it on the desk (I sure get dirty looks from
