One thing that I find really frustating is to find a bargain and when I go to put the bid I find the postage is silly money. This use to drive me crazy and waste a lot of my time about a month ago while just clicking around randomly (which I do to all systems I use a lot) I came across a nice little trick that saves me a lot of time:

When I am searching and find a seller with items I may be intrested in the first thing I do is go to there MyWorld page, this is easy to get to just put in http://myworld.ebay.com.au/sellersusername then click the link on the lefthand side 'Items for sale' this will show you the current sale price and the postage cost unless of course they have 'see description' which usally means (not always) it is going to be high
