this irks me!

so maybe a few of us know of the ebay seller 'tommyrazor'

awhile back i inquired about shipping charges to send an 8/8 wade and butcher (a pretty hefty razor) to Canada. He quoted me $9.00 and i think to myself: "thats's pretty high!" i didn't end up with the razor nor did i even bid on it as most of his razors are overpriced to begin with.

now recently I inquired about shipping for a much smaller razor to Canada with an email worded exactly the same and asking if he'd consider shipping via airmail letter post. The razor has a starting price of $20.00 and i don't think it will go for much higher than that, but this time, he quotes me $12.00 for shipping! and i think to myself: "you can stick that razor up your !"

Most US sellers have quoted me below $8.00, most have been well below that, like altima55 who will ship to me for $5.00
Heck i can get razors shipped overseas for as little as $6.00

Talk about gouging on shipping

When i told him what i thought, all he said was "dont ask the same question dont bid" (thats copy/pasted from his email)

and so begins my boycott of tommyrazor. I won't even CONSIDER buying anything from this seller! it infuriates me!

For comparisons sake, i'm looking at buying a brush, brush stand and 150g tub of shave cream from another US seller which will cost me $6.75 to ship
