Hi @id3456x

Let me correct your post in red with how it works:

Buyer paid ME through eBay for shipping. I got charged for shipping but used the money the Buyer paid ME when I purchased the shipping label through eBay. Other than Media Mail I got a shipping discount printing my label through eBay to help offset the fees I paid on the shipping cost the Buyer paid ME to use for the label purchase.

That is how it has always worked. Your shipping settings, if you use Calculated, determine how much a Buyer will pay YOU to ship the item. If you offer Free Shipping it means Buyers do not pay shipping but you do out of your own pocket.
