Haven't you ever seen all those sellers that sell a ton of books for $.01 each and wonder how they can do that? They make their money from the shipping costs because Amazon does not put a fee on that. It is the same thing on ebay. Why would you rather have ebay make the money rather than the person providing you with your product?
Simple, per ebay rules you are NOT ALLOWED to make a nickel off of shipping. It doesn't get any simpler than that.

As for that last question, ebay. Why? I'm all for big business doing what they need to do to provide the platform for all us to do what we do on there.

Not my job or problem to help a seller make an extra buck or 2 because he provided me with a product. Seller got paid for the item and should provide me what I paid for.

It really shouldn't be that difficult. Charge me $3.50 for shipping,justify it.If not,be prepared to suffer the consequences.
