There is the ability to ship via Media Mail for documentation.  I try to buy 
documents this way, as well as good ole vinyl records.

Several years ago eBay decided they wanted to "profit" from shipping costs.  
This was supposedly to alleviate shipping cost gouging.  I doubt this has 
helped much.

eBay has always been rather stupid when it comes to shipping.
I have seen many people who are actually making their profit from the shipping 
rather than the actual item for sale.

On the other side of the coin...  I once tried to sell a couple Chilton's car 
manuals.  The shipping price I quoted was the cost of a "If it fits, it ships" 
USPS envelope.  eBay refused to let me do it claiming the shipping charges were 
too high.  I haven't tried selling anything on eBay since.  (and I have a lot 
of stuff that just screams to be sold there!!)
