@sh60640 We all make a few mistakes at the beginning. What is written in the description doesn't matter as far as shipping. It is how the listing is filled out and the shipping options selected.

If your listings state that the buyer will pay for shipping, when the sale is made and the buyer pays, s/he will send item price + shipping + sales tax to ebay. ebay then sends the item price + shipping to you. You will see it in your Seller Hub > Orders > Awaiting shipment

You can purchase your shipping label anywhere you wish. If you use ebay shipping, you get a discount, and the funds to pay for the label can come from the pending payout as well as from your Paypal account (your choice).

You ship the item according to your handling time. Since you appear to be either a new or infrequent seller, ebay will most likely hold the payout to your checking account for up to 30 days, so the funds will be available just in case the buyer files a case.

Shipping charges are added when you list your item.

It looks like the Pasta Express parts were listing with Free USPS Ground, that means the seller pays the shipping. So the buyer is not obligated to pay any shipping and you should pay for the shipping label.

Be sure to always enter the correct weight and dimensions when you list your item, and chose Calculated Shipping. Then the buyer will pay shipping to you.
