Shipping charges are one way sellers with counterfeit items make their money on Ebay. They'll sell you a "Louis Vuitton" handbag for 59.00, but the shipping charges are 99.00. That way, when you realize its fake and send it back, they only refund the purchase price. I would never buy anything with outrageous shipping prices. I've also seen this done with sport cards that aren't in the condition described in the listing.
High shipping charges = scam
