At least the min. buy setting is announced up front (and I usually filter out
stores with a high min. buy). But these extra "fees" for whatever reason,
is done at the very last step of checkout or even only mentioned in the T&C.
I'm not advocating sellers should not be able to cover their costs, including
even packing costs, but these should be included in their "item prices"
on the one hand (PayPal % fee) and "shipping and handling costs" on the
other hand (packaging material, order processing fees, ...).
Sellers that really don't want to adjust prices or pay they PayPal fee, can
remove PayPal as valid payment method.
When instant checkout would be required for all stores (and I don't see why
not, seems like a logical evolution), the full cost of an order including all
fees the seller feels he should charge, is transparant to the buyer while he
is filling baskets. It's also more fair to sellers, as they are compared
with each other on equal grounds.

You are a seller also, so I checked how you approach this in your shop.
You are also charging packing, handling and paypal fees but you include these
in your shipping cost. If IC could be properly setup these additional charges
would also be shown before checkout.
In your terms you mention a 2% discount when paying with IBAN, but this does
not seem to function when I tested it on an €80 set.
You offer several shipment options to Netherlands. If I wanted to buy 1x 4073
the shipping options according to your terms are
small letter untracked €2,95
large letter untracked €6,95
large letter tracked €8,25
parcel to parcelshop tracked €7,25
But when I go to the order process the only shipping option available is large
letter tracked for €10,25. which is €2 above your advertised price, and €7,30
more than the cheapest option.
Maybe you could fix your own shop before complaining about others?
