adding postage to a payment

[ten*thousand*fists]

A seller is advertising braided hose for 5.50 per foot, the postage is listed as 9.90. 

I want ten foot, so the seller says enter the lenght you want In the quantity, but it also times the postage by ten (99 dollars!)

so I messaged the seller, they are actually selling the hose for 15 dollars per foot but are now telling me I can have it for 14 dollars per foot.

in my mind it should be 5.50 per foot times ten= 55 dollars + postage? 

To to me it's misleading for them to be advertising it for 5.50 per foot when it's actually 15  dollars per foot.

i have done a search but can't find if they are going outside the rules doing this? 

Can an anyone advise me?

I see that they have only left one buyer feedback in the last 12 months yet they have received 111 in the last 12 months.  So much for what they put in their listing description about leaving feedback for buyers.

The last two feedback left for buyers more than 12 months ago makes for good reading.
