I've worked for a couple of online retailers before, and they have a tendency to sell items at close to wholesale prices (so they can outcompete real, brick and mortar retail outlets). In order to make a profit, they customarily gouge you on shipping costs. Were he charging $10 for the product and $10 for the shipping, it would be obvious where he's making his money from, but this guy is TOTALLY double-dipping with his shipping.
That or they're made of solid gold with a mediocre paint job thrown on top of them...
Actually, it looks like he is just using a USPS priority flat rate box, the medium size ones cost exactly $10.95 to ship. I know they won't fit in a small flat rate box (the 6 buck ones) since those will only hold a single box of the really small gw boxes. or 2 or 3 dvds.

Not even DVDs, or at least not in DVD cases. The box is slightly too small to fit them :/

$50 is what one skank costs for a night, so $50 for 20 skanks painted in party colours for your amusement for the rest of your life seems a good deal - except for the fact that they're toy soliders!

I must say I am quite curious how you can read something hard. Does the text arouse you so?

Hello,
So.. a painted Skank is a whore in make up that does not charge right? It would explain the price tag, thats for your check-up the next day. Rememeber wear a raincoat or it could be your kid's spelling we are laughing at!
