How does Ebay determine the size weight, length of your packages from the weight and length that the seller uses.Because it's never the weight and length that I use

Use the shipping calculator to enter in the precise weight and exact dimensions of the prepackaged item.

Here's how to use calculated shipping when listing your items:

1. In the Shipping section of your listing, select Calculated: Cost varies by buyer location.
2. Next to Services, select Calculate Shipping.
3. In Package details in the Shipping Calculator, enter your package type, dimensions, and weight. If you're selling an irregularly shaped item, estimate its dimensions by measuring a box you can fit it in.
4. In the Your details section, enter your ZIP code and any handling fees.
5. Select Calculate shipping.
6. Select the shipping services you want to offer, and drag them into the order you want buyers to see them.
7. Select Offer shipping services.
8. Complete your listing.

eBay uses the information provided by the seller to determine the shipping charges.  If the seller does not provide accurate information then the shipping charge will be incorrect.  When making a listing eBay will attempt to show a shipping charge based on similar items that are listed.  Never believe this information as it is too prone to errors.
