I just bid on, and won, something I wanted.

I bid on this item despite the over-inflated shipping charge, since it had the lowest starting bid and still worked out the cheapest.

I just got the EOA....

If I want to use PayPal, I need to include $3.00 to cover the fees.

Since when does it cost $3.00 to receive $14???

Edited to add... No, the $3 charge was not in the auction itself

Not only is it a rip off, it is against Ebay rules. I would tell the seller that is against Ebay rules to charge a surcharge based upon payment method. In addition, you can report him for adding additional charges AFTER the end of the auction, which is not allowed, either.

The address to report is [email protected]
