I received an email from a guy on an auction (which I didn't win but he couldn't get a hold of the original winner), and said I was the winner. He is charging me $3.50 to mail my $1.00 token which I "won" for $1.00!

I emailed him back just to get the answer he couldn't just mail it in a padded envelope.

The guy has sold a lot of auctions with outrageous postage charges!

Why do sellers think they can charge that kind of price for shippin?
