Why are people such greedy assholes when it comes to shipping?

Cause shipping isn't cheap. When I sell on ebay, I'll charge up to 8.50 for shipping. Sometimes I cut even and sometimes I don't. Not to mention when you sell on ebay, you have to pay a percent to ebay when it sells, and some sellers will attach this fee to the shipping.

Shipping is not cheap! Add packing materials and fees and you'll see nobody is getting rich over shipping charges. Ebay plus paypal usually takes about 15% in fees. Shippers are also expected to pay insurance too.

Yeah, that too!! And now ebay has paypal make them hold your money till you ship the item and what not. Which sucks for me, cause once I get the money, I ship out the item. Now ebay is making sellers pay for tracking now, if you don't do these things, they will hold your money longer. This is why I haven't been selling that much now.
