I agree with Mike on this. I always check the
shipping price on anything that I bid. If the
shipping is out of line by X dollars, I just
subtract X dollars from the highest price that
I am willing to bid on the item.

The sellers of meteorites aren't the worst
about out-of-line shipping charges. There are
/ were some sellers of Russian trilobites that
charge, or were charging, 15.00 to 25.00
dollars for shipping charges for trilobites
that weigh was than most meteorites being
sold on Ebay.

Possibly the sellers charging these shipping
charges are fooling themselves.
