If one is going to sell then one has to deal with such
"inconveniences:" as waiting in line at the post office. THAT is
certainly no reason to gouge a buyer. If one doesnt want the so
called hassle, it's easy-- dont get into the selling biz, plain and
simple (whether it be on ebay, or personally). To say that a 5.00
"handling fee" is somehow justified because one gets stuck in a line
at the USPS is absurd.

charging a $5 handling fee for the inconvenience of having to use
window service at your local post office, which in New York City
means waiting on line for at least a half-hour to one hour. For
whatever reason, you can't use pre-paid on-line postal services for
regular USPS air mail, only priority mail. It's so awful having to
deal with in-person postal services and personnel a $5 surcharge is
probably not enough!

Disgusting. Takes about 90 seconds to fill out that form.

I wasnt too impressed with a seller who recently said that he had
charged an additional fee of $5.00 for having to fill out that
little green customs sticker that goes on an international package.
Its no wonder that eBay have been trying to crack down on sellers
who gouge on postage.
