For what it's worth, the dude did refund my money with no questions asked...Not sure how much eBay charges nowadays, but I can see why it's priced that way. Not only is the seller getting charged for listing the item, eBay is getting a percentage of the sale price (I remember when I used to sell on eBay, I was getting charged 10% of the final sales price), plus Paypal is charging the seller a fee to accept payment.
If people are comfortable with it, you can always ask the seller to do a transaction out of eBay, and send payment as family/friends - that way, he doesn't get charged any fees and can pass on the savings to you. Not everyone would be comfortable with it though, but since I've purchased from him before and have been in good contact, I took the risk (and it paid off) to do it outside of eBay.
