It always pays to check with the seller before paying, but that shipping cost is not reasonable regardless.

For small things like that from the US for which the postage is inexplicably high, I always use a freight forwarding company called Shipito.

I didnt have paid yet.. And the weird thing was i couldnt decide what to do.(couldnt see the big amount off shipping costs that where waiting on me) When you push on buy now, then its already to late.. After then i could see those shipping costs that where ment to me.

So i dont have a other opportunity then only pay this order??
I already made contact with that persoon.. But i dont think he will be that kind to reduce the amount off coolers to make it cheaper after all.. or cancel to whole order.. I dont think he`s that stupid off those cooler are already ~bought~

If you never plan on using eBay again, you can just ruin the seller's day and walk away.

Thats was iam thinking too. But yes i need that ebay account, iam dont use it for vintage computer parts only.. I also buy other stuff on ebay that i cant find here in my residence

It's extremely important to contact a seller on eBay ahead of time if you intend to buy multiple things from them and ask what the combined shipping would cost for what you want, otherwise stuff like this can happen with the automated system. You can try to contact the seller for a combined shipping cost now and see what they say, but because they haven't already given you one they're not obligated to provide one. (It's gonna depend on how nice the person is.)

If they refuse to offer a combined shipping rate, you COULD file a dispute saying that the shipping fees do not match what was quoted, but you're gonna need to do some research to figure out exactly how much the shipping should've cost for what you bought in the quantity you bought. You could also point out the misquoting on the customs fees thing.

For most eBay sales there is a shipping section at the bottom. You enter the quantity and it will calculate the combined shipping cost. Some are very good, some total rip-off like yours.

You can send the seller a "Request for total cost" via eBay and ask for combined shipping in the comments. They can then update the total before you pay.

If they refuse and won't cancel the transaction, just don't pay. eBay doesn't really care and sellers can't leave negative feedback. I speak as a seller who's had plenty of non-paying buyers! The seller will get their fees back eventually.

Potentially they could file an unpaid item report for each item, but I doubt even then eBay would lock your account.

I would definitely contact the seller. There is an option for both parties to "walk away". The seller then just re-lists the item. Hopefully though you can work out an acceptable combined shipping cost.

Ask them to cancel the transaction. They should have no issue doing that. Good luck! 😊

This is one of the main reasons that I left eBay and you need to cancel that transaction as soon as possible by any means. Don't pay for what can be had by dumpster diving and yard sales.

Oh right, I forgot about that.

I had some problems yesterday with my internet modem (the new one is dead) so i couldnt get connected to the internet.. An hour ago i have replaced the newer modem with an older one i still had as backup..
Now iam back.. Yesterday i got a mail from him.. The good news is i can cancel the whole order.. (thought he never would do it) But i really want does coolers.. For quality ones they are very hard to find..
So i ask him if he could ship it cheaper.. So i only what i have to do is wait on his reply and see what he could do for me.. Otherwise i just cancel it.

Where i bid on, i didnt saw anything for calculating the shipping costs.. I only saw 26 dollar. When i looked for my country it was just the same amount... But when i bought it then the problems came up. But some ebay seller just making profits on this traps and arent so friendly to cancel the order or so.

Can be closed this thread.. Ive already cancel it.. Save me a lot of money yeah!.
