You can override shipping costs for an eBay listing other than what is specified in your shipping profile. A shipping profile contains information on:
- The currency used for the shipping costs
- Countries you wish to ship to and/or exclude countries you do not wish to ship to
- Domestic shipping details including services and costs
- International shipping details including services and costs
How to use a shipping profile but change the shipping costs for an eBay listing?
If using version up to 3.x:
In the Listing Editor, select a shipping profile you wish to use. All the options as specified in the shipping profile will be used as they are including the shipping costs. However, you do have the option to override the shipping costs specified in the shipping profile but continue to use everything else specified in that shipping profile.
To override shipping costs, follow these steps:
In the Listing Editor, click on the link labelled “Edit Shipping Costs” just alongside the dropdown labelled “Shipping:”.
A new window opens up where you can select/change the profile selected, edit the shipping costs and then save the changes you made. Please note that if you haven’t changed the shipping costs previously, then, the default costs as specified in the profile are displayed.
In version 5.x or Online app:
- Double-click the listing you wish to edit
- Click on “Shipping Policy“
- Click on “Show details“
- Edit the costs (if first shipping service is Free, naturally, you can’t edit its cost)
