  I’m new to the site and am wondering how/why buyers commit to a purchase before
knowing the shipping fees? I purchased about $15 in Lego to be shipped within
Canada, but the invoice asked for $25 in shipping fees. So I requested to cancel,
but the seller didn’t respond & I see BrickLink’s policy is that the seller doesn’t
have to agree to cancelling if they don’t want to.
So I may have to pay $40 for just $15 in Lego? I’m not really blaming the seller,
I just don’t understand why buyers are asked by BrickLink to commit to a purchase
before knowing the full cost, including shipping!
I deal with contractors in my job every day and before they send an invoice they
send an Order Confirmation which includes any fees on top of the product, like
shipping. Once I reply with agreement, I’m fully committed and they send the
invoice for payment.

Personally, I use AI
