That sounds more like Canada Post pricing than USPS...

Golly!  I wish I'd seen it first!  And now it's too late to bid.

Nothing like paying twice the price of the item for shipping.

Well actually, in this case it would be 667 times the cost of the torch.

They're probably using the kayak that Google Maps used to recommend for ocean travel.  Costs a lot to ship that way.

Weird....

Changing shipto to Canada gets me a $10000 shipping price too

But changing to USA it's $5.50

how odd.....

(dozens of things by that seller are >$10,000 shipping to AU)
