Yeah, more than likely he is just charging you the fastest shipping possible. I had a seller charge me something like $12 -$15 for a V1 Roadblock on shipping. I emailed him and told him there was no way I was going to pay that kind of shipping as I had recieved many other joes from the States, and the shipping was consistantly $1.20 or $2.20 ( I forget).
If he refuses to budge off of the $15 shipping, and you can live without the item, maybe offer to pay his listing fee (if you even want to do that), and tell him to relist it. After I said this to the seller of my one joe, he came back with a $3 shipping price... I knew the actual shipping cost would still be less, but paid him the $3 nonetheless..
It worked for me, so maybe for you too....good luck...
