And I'm noticing that I've been charged a lot more for shipping than what the seller actually ends up paying to ship.
And they're things thrown in little envelopes... something came actually wrapped up in a paper grocery bag...
I mean -- things are like $2 here $2 there.
I had 4 things come in the mail just now and all were like this.
And I have more coming. That's like $10 extra I could have in my pocket.
Can I fight this?

Not sure if you can fight it...you can defintely give the seller some negative feedback on it. They might see it and agree to reimburse you.

I believe you can report sellers for excessive shipping.
You can also give them a low star rating when it comes to leaving feedback and if it's a low rating, ebay will ask you why and such.

They listed the shipping price in the actual listing? If so, then no, you can't fight it. I guess they are looking at it as a 'handling fee' kinda thing? But definitely mention it in the feedback.

Re: I'm annoyed.
I mean if shipping is listed as $4
And they were charged $1.55
And it's wrapped in a paper grocery bag -- as in they didn't go purchase a packing envelope.
... they just got an extra $2.50 out of me.
Times all the things I had delivered

Just playing devil's advocate- they could claim they had to travel to get to the post office and that takes time, effort, and gas. $2.45 of time, effort, and gas.
ETA: And is it one of those envelopes with the bubble wrap inside? They cost money, too.

No! It's literally a paper grocery bag... cut down and scotch taped closed.

That I would fight. That's ridiculous. Or maybe not fight it, but give them a bad rating and never buy from there again.

Re: I'm annoyed.
Double check the sellers shipping fees and rstes and what kind of shiiping you were charged for.. ie, if you paid for priority and it came to you in a brown bag. Some sellers do charge handling fees but there supposed to be clearly listed. Before you give negative feedback contact sellers they might credit you back the shipping difference . Most of time theyll.work with you to avoid being negg'd. I sell on ebay sometimes and it sucks when you dont get the chance to resolve, your other route is go to ebay n get them on excessive shipping

I wrote the seller directly.
I don't have a problem if it was paid to get here super fast and super safely.
My annoyance is with the fact that its IN A GROCERY BAG.
