    If they've already paid, just combine them into one box if you can, and enter that tracking number for all 4 orders (it will allow you to use the same one when the orders are from the same buyer).  Then you can send them a partial refund for the amount saved, either on one order or spread out among the 4 orders.  That's eBay's official recommendation:
    https://www.ebay.com/help/selling/shipping-items/shipping-rates/offering-combined-shipping?id=4169

     

    Combining shipping fees after the buyer paid
    If a buyer has already paid for shipping, you can still offer a combined shipping discount by sending a partial refund to the buyer from the Orders - opens in new window or tab tab in Seller Hub or My eBay Sold - opens in new window or tab.

     

    Shipping combined orders
    Once the buyer has completed payment, you can create a shipping label from one of the orders and upload that tracking number for all of the items in the new combined order.
