Funny it costs one guy $5 to ship me an entire BAF figure and I get it within days from the same state where another guy wants around $35 to ship a single 3.75 scale figure, won't budge on the shipping and would take up to 2 weeks to arrive. There's scalping and then there's just bad business. If you're only charging an American 5 bucks to ship inside the US and in reality it only costs 5 bucks to ship to Canada, but you're charging $35, you're dinging yourself out on a sale because it's unlikely that someone will pay $35 for an item to ship. You're also denying your auction of an entire country worth of bids. It isn't any different or more complicated or any hassle to send a package to Canada than it is within the US. When I go to ship packages to Canada or the US, I go to the same post office and go through the exact same process. It's just poor business. And another thing that is hilarious is when people list a $10 item for around $50 and it doesn't sell, ever. Mainly because there are about 30 of the same listed for around $10 to $15. What do they get out of doing this? Is this some sort of tax scam that I'm not in on?
