Check the layers in Photoshop before you place in Illustrator. I've seen everything from 20 blank layers to 150 different versions all saved in one Photoshop file. Delete the dead wood, flatten as needed in photoshop, then place as a link in Illy. BTW always save a native Illy file when working with transparency. As said postscript doesn't understand it and once flattened in an eps it's a PITA to work with. It's getting to the point where if you have to write postscript your screwed. Transparency is killing the eps format.
Doesn't anyone use layout apps for these things anymore?
