Don't worry, if you "rage" enough against the "machine" they'll be out to "get"
you for trying to charge excessive shipping fees in order to circumvent ebay
fees-- which is explicitly against their TOS. I have some of these tiny little
bank notes-- you could ship who knows how many hundred of them for the $4.05 you
are charging to ship one.

Hint: if you are cheating the system, don't try to call attention to yourself.
