    It is an odd shaped package. That probably means that it won't go through their machines like a normal shaped/smaller package would.

      They call it dimensional weight, it sucks but it's been like that forever. Next time you can do an estimate on UPS.com etc and that is generally real close to what the cost will be. Or, find someone with daily pick-up that will let you ship the part under their account, that will save you about 25%.

              Just my 2 cents.....you can't ask that guy to send more money if you agreed on the price. Its your fault you didn't check first.

                  If you can't stick to an agreement, stop selling stuff online, that's where adults enjoy doing business. Maybe PS3 or Xbox has an online selling game you could try.

                      The same should go for people trying to low ball people too, or is that not as unethical as asking for a little more money to cover shipping?

                        There isn't a point in selling something if your just going to lose money on it. Its not like he is trying to bait and switch on him he is just being honest and asking for more money to cover shipping costs. From what I read both the buy and seller both assumed that shipping about be ~$50. Assumptions aren't always right.

                            Lowballing has nothing to do with an agreed price. It is an offer made by one party. Apples to oranges. I never said it is unethical to asked for more money. I think it is a chickenshit way of trying to cover your own fuckup.

                              you also have to think about it, they could probably fit 10 packages in the space it takes for that one package. anymore on ups its $10 as a minimum to ship something

                                  What are the dimensions of the box? Anyway you can cut it down? Your probably over the dimensional weight by a few inches. Those few inches will raise the cost $50.
                                  I wouldn't ask for any more money if there was an agreed upon price.

                                      Now, to help the OP out a bit....try sending it Greyhound. Seriously. It'll take a few more days, but its a LOT cheaper than other parcel services that I've tried.

                                          Baiting and switching IS illegal, Kevin, along with being highly unethical. How would you feel if someone did that to you. If you dont wanna pay the shipping, give him his money back.

                                          no race car? becuz homeowner...
