	After a little looking around, the calculator is indeed an eBay 
service.  Also, if you click on the icon of the calculator in that 
window, another dialog box pops up to let you know what shipping rate 
will be applied to the auction -- in the case of the AC-130A, USPS 
Parcel Post, the least expensive rate, so it would appear there's some 
padding taking place.  It enables the seller to not admit to charging 
'handling' to the total price.
	So, open your eyes, use some logic and make informed decisions.
