Sounds like BS to me! Make sure to leave them some negative feedback.

Well I'm sure they can "do" it... but if you paid the agreed price for the sale (what it was posted for) and now they're asking for more... ask for a refund. And if they don't give it, file a complaint through paypal to get your money back.

I agree on getting a refund, I can't say if it is illegal where they are (law may saw they have to refund you if you refuse to pay the additional shipping or some nonsense), but I think it is pretty unfair. Although I doubt shipping would really be that high (I work at a major shipping company) and for exhaust sizes/weight I wouldn't expect anything to break 75-100 going Ground, if it is going by air it would probably be in excess of 200.

Per eBays rules I'm pretty sure they have to ship at the advertised price, but once again, who knows.

Good luck with the outcome though.

This is why I don't like to shop off of ebay. I know there are a lot of good, honest sellers on there, but it's the bad ones like this that make me stay away. If I am considering buying some thing off ebay I always read the first few pages fo their feed back.

Get your money back and go elsewhere. Complain to ebay, BUT DO NOT PAY IT. If they are doing something that shady, then who knows what will happend with the product.

Thank you for your order. Unfortunately we can not honor this price due to a major increase in shipping costs for this item. We were not aware of this increase as we do not sell many of these systems. if you are still interested can offer you this system for $162.00 more. Please respond ASAP so we may proceed with the order. If you have more questions you may call us at 860-269-7821, Mon.-Fri., 10am-7pm, EST.

don't do what i would do. i repeat don't follow these steps to get revenge for on your money. this is illegal.
find where they are at.(warehouse, offices, etc). take pictures. log who works there and what they drive. check to see if they have normal day business hours or are a 24 hour. track movements of the employees and after hours security. find out what day garbage is picked up.(office standard trash and industrial crap from warehouse).
now with that in hand. ruin the company with cyber-terrorism or make it easy and wait for the place to be empty and burn it down. pm me for a link to an old school 'cookbook' that was banned years ago.
remember do not try this. it is illegal!

Dude, you need to see a psychologist.

Anyway, don't pay the extra shipping. Tell them either ship it or refund your money.
