.Unfair postage after item posted

[ccrider1966]

I bid on the magic bullet blender. Seller had make an offer on item so I offered ten bucks cheaper and he agreed. I knew the box was going to be a bit heavy perhaps and slightly bulky,buyer had $45 postage from nsw to Vic. When item arrived today the postage sticker on the box said $24.95. What do other ebayers think I should do before I contact the seller. Is it fair that the seller makes an extra $20 with postage. All he did was put the original box into a bigger fitting box,put some newspaper in it a taped it up. LIke to hear some input.

There is nothing you can do at all....you agreed to the postage when you bought the item.

If the postage was in the listing you should have queried it before bidding/buying.

You can make your feelings known by marking the selller's stars appropriately.

plus, the price shown on the box may not have been the entire price the seller actually paid.

The seller had to pay for the packaging plus as it was over $50 they would have added signature on delivery or extra cover plus they are entitled to charge for the time it takes to select the item and prepare it for posting. By the time you add all those on it doesn't sound like a terrifically inflated price and it is what you agreed to when you purchased anyway. It is certainly not so much that ebay would consider it fee evasion..
