Huge expensive shipping rates on eBay « on: August 27, 2025, 06:27:49 AM » Author: dor123
Why the shipping rates on eBay are so expensive? In the past, they were lower. I wanted to buy a Venture HPS-DE 70W R7s HPS lamp at eBay, but look at the costs: link

@dor123 Could you include a screenshot? Unsurprisingly, there are different shipping prices depending on where the viewer is located. For me it says that it's about 36 GBP for postage and import taxes.

I think the main problem is shipping to israel... I checked, DHL still states the have difficulties with shipping, because israel is doing the dirty work for the west and that may pose an inconvenience to them...
