If you add the shipping calculator to your listing, shipping costs are automatically calculated for your buyer based on the buyer's ZIP code, the weight and dimensions of the package, and the type of shipping services offered.
Go to the Give buyers shipping details section of the selling form and select Calculated: Cost varies by buyer location.
Select a package type.
Note: If you select Large Package, you’ll need to enter the dimensions of the package. Your package may be considered irregular if it’s a non-standard material or if it’s an irregular shape, and may have additional charges. The US Postal Service and UPS have different definitions of irregular.
Enter the weight of the packaged item.
Select a shipping service.
Note: You can specify up to 3 shipping services.
To add a handling cost, click the Change link at the bottom of the section.
Note: We don’t recommend adding a handling cost. If you do add a handling cost, make sure that it covers only the actual cost of packaging materials. Learn more about our Selling practices policy.
