I am unfortunately going to let you know that you should ALWAYS check the sellers feedback and the sellers SHIPPING COSTS prior to any bidding...recently there has been a RASH of seller really OVERCHARGING on the shipping cost I believe to save on listing costs which benefits them but is not permitted and if the auction bidding exceeds the low starting cost the BUYER (YOU) are the one that ends up having to pay the HUGE SHIPPING PRICES....Be cautious and smart when bidding and buying and always always always read the fine print!!!! Ebay can be a really wonderful thing ...I wish there was a way to really limit the shipping charges....maybe they should make it mandatory to put a weight specification...which then could limit the "EXTRA" charges people are pocketing...Just a thought.

ENJOY BIDDING and most of all have fun!
