Thanks for clarifying this, Helmut, as it is oh so true. many
sellers charge so much more than the actual shipping cost.
as an example: we have all ordered items on line, from private
sellers-- and have been charged, let's say, 20.00, for postage.
the only problem is, when the package arrives -- the printed USPS
label with the ACTUAL cost (example: 8.75) to mail is staring us in
the face.
an additional 11.25 of pure profit? for what? (and i'm not talking
the cost of materials--JUST the mailing cost).

I mean no offense, but as an international customer you charge me a
minimum of $19 for shipping. I remember one package I received from
you with two or three posters,
shipped First Class Mail International, at postage costs of under $12.
Now even with packing materials, handling costs and whatever, I
can't see that you lost any money here.
