How to set shipping costs to avoid eBay charging transaction fees Some fees are completely avoidable. One of eBay’s recently updated policies is that under certain circumstances, eBay will charge eBay Fees for your free shipping. This will definitely make many people find it incredible. I already have free shipping, so why do I have to pay? It’s so unreasonable! eBay stipulates this: As a seller, you provide three express delivery services at the same time - 24 hours Shipping, domestic distribution and international express delivery, according to eBay's policy adjustment this time, eBay will charge a transaction fee for the second, domestic delivery service. eBay will not charge a transaction fee when the customer chooses the other two express delivery methods. If 24-hour shipping or international delivery service is selected, the first non-24-hour shipping method will be used to calculate the transaction fee. If no other domestic shipping method is available, eBay will charge for 24-hour shipping or international delivery service. In fact, we have ways to pay less or no shipping fees. If you currently only offer a 24-hour shipping or international express service, then you should consider adding a more economical domestic express method to your shipping options. But there is no need to make it your first choice. If users really want to use this slower express service, just let them choose. But adding this option means that your express delivery fee is calculated using it. Think about it, 24-hour delivery and international express delivery are definitely more expensive than domestic delivery. In this way, you pay The transaction fees will also be higher. One more thing, if you set this slower but more economical domestic shipping service to free, you won't be charged a transaction fee on your shipping costs. Because even if the customer insists on choosing 24-hour shipping or is located abroad, the transaction fee is always calculated based on the shipping option you set as free shipping. You may think that the shipping fee is not much, but it adds up to a considerable sum, especially for large sellers who ship hundreds of thousands of goods every day.
