Bricklink Seller Review - DALLASBRICKS

I've posited before on the potential problem of proferring capitals in the name of your store.  I've also ranted about the use of multiples of a single letter, namely 'A'.  Now for another anomoly.  What about the use of e x t r a  s p a c e s .  I  s u p p o s e  t h e  i d e a  i s  t o  m a k e  i t  l o o k  l i k e  y o u  a r e  t a k i n g  m o r e  s p a c e .  N o t  s u r e  w h a t  h a p p e n e d  h e r e  b u t  a t  l e a s t  i t  m a k e s  m y  p o s t s  l o o k  l o n g e r .

Recommendation
I suppose when you watch a magician, it's not called deception, it's called sleight of hand.  So I'm at a bit of a loss when I am quoted one rate and charged another.  This seller is one of many who makes a practice of double-dipping.  First, USPS counter rates are quoted but then Commercial Base rates are used through Paypal.  Right there is a 65c savings for the seller.  But on top of that is a further added packaging fee of 50c.  It's akin to an extra 2.9% + 30c charge.  This same practice is used on international sales but with a packaging rate of $1.50.  The postage switch has an even larger differential for side profit on top of the heftier fee.  I suppose with a magician, one is entertained.  Here, it's a grey area that I am not fond of.
