I think you are over thinking this just a bit. Something's "value" does not include the cost of shipping, whether it is on ebay or bought in a store while on vacation, and shipped home. I don't remember what I paid for shipping, but I can remember what I paid for purchase...and will continue listing mine as such.

OK, let me put it a different way: If someone was selling a mug you wanted for $5 and asking $30 for shipping, would you buy it and say you got a deal? Or would you buy the same mug from another seller for $25 with free shipping?

As I see it, something's value is what you're willing to pay for it—no more, and no less.

I agree with you here. I always factor in S&H charges. The same item could be anywhere from Free to $20 in S&H and it does make a difference.
