Default Another ebay item

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Guild-Wars-near-PERFECT-Bow-Grip-of-Fortitude-29-hp-5k_W0QQitemZ8224104185QQcategoryZ4596QQrdZ1QQcmdZV iewItem

Just thought this might give someone a laugh..

Ok, I know here have been lots of threads about people selling in game items on ebay, but this is the first I have seen that has the audacity to charge $4.98 for postage!

Does he have to get a cab from the sofa to his PC perhaps?

The buyout is at $0.01, so I'm assuming he's doing it for a reason. Perhaps eBay doesn't take money from shipping and handling? Either way you're looking at it, he's asking for $4.99 for the item.

Lots of people use "postage and handling" to help them cover eBay fees. They don't allow you to DIRECTLY charge buyers to cover your fees, but if you lump it in with shipping and handling, you can usually get away with it. That's probably what this is.
