All of ya'll watch stuff on ebay, but to me...a red flag goes up if shipping 
not shown or mentioned. I think it should be a common courtesy, but not 
everyone knows what it will cost to ship something, and many people simply 
estimate. However, some don't give a shit. I was going to bid on a almost 
NOS 72 Ambassador grile up in MA awhile back, only %25 open bid, but no 
mention of shipping. So I clicked on the 'ask seller a question' and asked 
how much to ship it to Houston, TX. 77043. He emailed me back several days 
later and said $125! Yow, I hope that includes the 55 gallon drum of KY 
jelly! That same grille, which is heavy and solid chrome, can be shipped 
anywhere in US for about $30. Still, I didn't bid and simply let it go!
