I don't know if that is really a rip-off, shipping a frame to Australia really does cost $500. And ebay does a horrible job at estimating shipping. I'm really reluctant to ship anything out of the U.S. unless it's through ebay's global program. I'm sure I'm losing out on some sales, but I know someone who sold something for $400 and ended up paying more than that extra after the fact. So he would have come out ahead to throw it away. Little known bug in the system.
Not sure how a seller would pay any extra except for eBay and Paypal fees, presuming they got an accurate quote on freight? Maybe I could of pushed my seller into the low freight cost as I had a written quote from him but I accept that an error was made and so paid the extra
