You live in Canada, correct? I think he can change the shipping cost, since you are technically an international bidder. Did you e-mail him before bidding on the item and did he agree to a shipping cost of $15? If not, then you're probably stuck, and the guy's a scumbag. Sorry. :(

Usually those shipping prices listed are domestic prices. Always ask if you are international because it's a very big difference in price between countries. However canada should not be $25 dollars unless you chose priority mail. Ask him if he can send via Airmail letter post, which is extremely cheap to canada. Hope that helped. Speaking of eBay I got some stuff up also. Check the Sig.

$25 to send a unicron to canada sounds about right.

The masterpiece prime I sent you is smaller and lighter, and the shipping on it was $17.85 for regular old 4-10 day air mail. A unicron would cost a little more to send than that.

Is it there yet, btw?
