The site itself can be trusted, but there may be some random, misleading auctions going on in there. It's sort of like Ebay, except with virtual currency.

And about that shipping thing, just like Ebay, there are things that have free shipping and things that have shipping costs. Make sure you pay attention to the description (especially the shipping costs) when you bid, and you'll be fine.

It's up to you whether you want to pay $5 shipping for that candle; if you don't want to pay the shipping, don't bid.
