Can I get two auctioned items with the same shipping?

[oaih3992]

Hi there! I am going to buy two items from the same seller from an auction and both auctions end on the same day but they end 1 hour apart. Is it possible to pay for one shipping so that both of the items come together so i don't have to pay for shipping twice? Thank you for taking the time to read this post.

You need to ask the seller.  They should be willing to do this for you, because they can.  Just message them.  We can't help here on the forum

You need to ask the seller (and get a satisfactory answer) BEFORE you bid.  Once you bid you have agreed to buy the item if you win under the terms of the listing.  If the listing doesn't say the seller offers a discount for combined shipping then s/he might or might not do so if you win more than one, and unless s/he says otherwise (specifically mentioning a discount and how it is calculated) expect to pay the full amount of s/h on each item.

As others have said, you need to contact the seller. It's also plausible (though not that likely), that it could be a large seller that has items in several locations and may not be able to combine. 

Also, bear in mind that the cost to ship 2 items, even in the same package is usually more expensive than sending one item as the package weighs more.  So the seller may charge accordingly.

@oaih3992   If you were required to provide a payment source BEFORE you were allowed to bid,  it will NOT allow you to "request a total" nor will the seller be allowed to send you an invoice to combine the items for one shipping price. 

The seller can still ship the items together, and they can refund any extra shipping costs you paid, but they are not required to do so.  As others have said, best to ask first.
