I've read the section about 'excessive shipping fees' that I agreed to before I was able to list things on ebay. It's policy against something that's not well defined, so it's entirely up to the ebay's discretion whether any specific case violates it or not. So the buyer has absolutely no involvement whatsoever in this particular part.
