I dont want to pay shipping
When i was initially setup. eBay had a customer service rep facetime me and he set me up on I pay for shippment. I never wanted that. How can the buyer pay for shipping. I keep getting the run around and none of their instructions work.

Mentor1 month ago@tha-365057 When you create the listing you need to choose how you want the shipping.
Calculated- you enter the package details (measurements and weight) and eBay uses that information to calculate the buyer's shipping amount based on your item location and the buyer's location.
Flat Rate- If you shipping using a flat rate service like, USPS Flat Rate boxes, you enter the dollar amount the buyer pays.
Free- With free shipping you figure your cost to ship and add that into the item price to cover the cost. The buyer pays for the shipping but does not see a separate charge.
With all shipping options The buyer pays you the shipping and you use that to purchase the label. The buyer's payment to eBay includes the item, the shipping you set on your listing, and any tax they owe. eBay takes their selling fees out and sends you the balance.
Since your listings are set to free shipping you will need to revise them to add in the shipping costs. You can either change the item price or change the shipping section. With the number of listings you have it maybe easier to add the shipping cost into the item price and as you create new listings enter the shipping option you want.
This page will help with the steps to set calculated shipping on your listings. There is also a link to the shipping calculator you can estimate the shipping to the farthest zone to add into your item price.
