I know from experience... mainly shipping to Canada... Someone buys your item and then when you tell them its $30 to ship it, they try to tell you that your trying to rip them off. Things cost more to ship from the US then to ship INTO the US. For example. I can get a quarterscale car from FROM germany to me for $80 and its delivered to me by our post service. BUT if i wanted to ship to Germany, our post service would not take it because its too big. That only leaves UPS, Fed Ex or DHL $300 +++. I blame it on the unions and state workers. We have a mentality here that labor work deserves high wages and executive benifits.... hence everything now being made in china. There are no longer "entry level" jobs here in the US. If you are a bagger at a grocery store that entitles you to a lifetime of work with high pay and full benifits...
Now that i am done ranting... I still ship overseas though, i dont mind...

Re: WHATS WRONG WITH America
for shipping cost we are rather lucky in France, i sell in he world no for too many euros!
but even on Amazon, sometimes i can't buy some products if seller don't want to send outside US. (some sellers that use amazon marketplace can ship overseas some others don't)
For Ebay thing, i am still looking for a way to have a 1:4 chevy 55 fiberglass body shipped to France...
