    $12 bucks for something that weighs around 2 pounds and which you can't even ship through Media Mail.

    What a FUCKING SCAMMER. *fumes*

    Are these that popular and hard to come by for it to get over a bill for them?

    It's the size that makes it cost 12 bucks. Seems reasonable to me.

    One: The guy is sending these MEDIA MAIL.
    Two: The items fit on a standard Priority Mail box.
    Three: They're pads, they're not even THAT HEAVY.

    Mistake? I did that once where I listed an item as media when it should have been 1st class. Media = my default. Was not on purpose.

    Which priority box? Certainly not the $4.05 box. More like the $7-8.00 box.

    Pads? They look like controllers. Lightweight but still large in size & the USPS charges by size too.

    They don't just have the Priority Mail long boxes at your post office. They have many different sizes; one of them is about as big as a basketball sneaker shoebox. (Of course, this depends on availability at your local post office. Mine carries them sometimes.)

    Maybe the same is true for This Seller? Meaning he has no choice but to use the $7-8 medium box. Meaning he's done nothing wrong with his Shipping/handling.

    ...

    I'm not talking of flat rate boxes, I'm talking of free Priority Mail boxes available at your post office. The ones that you get for FREE. I don't think the items weigh more than two pounds combined. Three max. At most, he should charge $7.

    You can use a priority mail box the size of a microwave and shipping would still only be based on the weight of the box. Ok, maybe that's an exaggeration but none of the standard USPS Priority Mail boxes fall into the oversized catagory when it comes to additional shipping fees. The additional weight of the box is minimal as well.

    I got some free microwave size boxes from eBay/USPS a while back. No, really, that's the size! I shipped off that 32x I sold inside two of them. .
