I sell alot of stuff on ebay and charge a flat shipping rate on everything You get to know about how much it costs and ebay does give discounted shipping I do sell internationally but only though Ebay shipping center in Kentucky so my flat rates are in line I did sell some HO Switches to a guy in Canada a couple of months ago that I had charged a 10 dollar flat shipping rate My shipment went to Kentucky as always and Ebay sends it to Canada I dont fill out any customs forms etc I have no idea who does probably ebay going by what the auction listing is Well I got a negative feedback from this guy because he said he paid 34 dollars in shipping I only got 10 so ebay must charge the international buyer the rest Crazy price for switches he paid 2.00 apiece for

That's enlightening - I had incorrectly assumed that when you check out you know the entire cost. I understand your buyer's displeasure, but it's too bad that your rating suffers as a result.
