I don't think that's allowed. I'd call ebay and tell them the seller is breaking the rules. If the seller refuses to remove the fee, then you don't have to pay for it as long as you let ebay know and they will reverse any NPB the seller opens against you.

I've only done that once as a seller at the request of the buyer for signature confirmation for $2.20.

He probably does it a fair amount, and gets caught some...but continues to try to get away with it.
Absolutely zero way to do this accidentally.

Dang...I was about to say...though that's a cool way to throw in extra items.He might even be able to skip eBay fees on those.

I've done it before you don't pay fees on it...at least not back then. Since they take a % of shipping fees now they might take it from added money...

Speaking of extra fees, I've noticed that since the recent USPS increase a lot of sellers have not only doubled or tripled their S&H charge, but many are also adding an import fee to send to Canada.
eBay is becoming less of an option if you live outside the US. Who wants to spend so much to get a card that'll just be in a plain old toploader and #000 envelope?

It sucks but it had to do with covering the customs duties and fees on stuff and some sellers just prepare for the worst and jack up the fees to cover it without looking into specific countries.

Well I had a buddy who was selling some cards. He had some stuff I figured we wouldn't agree upon prices for so I waited until he put them up for auction. I won a bunch of them for decent prices. But I know this guy and we figured it'd save him fees if I just paid him cash next time we met up or I pay pal'd him the money gifted. So I paid him that way and the auctions were marked as payment sent but they never went away. Every time I went to pay for something else they'd pop up as needing to be paid for. So we stopped doing that because I figured eventually eBay would get mad about him getting around the fees and might suspend his acct. or mine. Plus, since I knew when he was listing and what he was listing, I figured it might make it look like he was shilling his auctions. So usually he just pulls the stuff I want but not for auctions.

Only money saved here were Paypal fees which is nothing compared to Ebay fees. Instead marking them "payment sent" he should have opened a claim and selected an option from "We have both agreed not to complete the transaction". He'd then get his FVFs back and you wouldn't get a NPB.
