Wondering why my listing doesn't indicate free shipping when I see it in the category listing..? The first attachment shows a screenshot of my listing's price. The second one is someone else's. All the other listings I see either have a price or mention free shipping. Mine doesn't. Is there a seller setting somewhere you have to revise to get that working?

Where exactly don't you see it...........I see it in a search.........
Yes, In my actual auction it is there. It also shows up in search. But if you go to the category listing (gallery or list view), it is not there.

I can't replicate your search exactly, because your listing has now sold (congratulations).
However, when I tried similar searches, trying to replicate it, I consistently saw either free shipping or the price of shipping to my location, on every listing. No matter what kind of search I did (including a category search) and even on sold listings; it showed how much it would have cost me for shipping. See the screenshot below.
I think that you did not see a shipping cost because it was your own listing ... you can't purchase your own listing, so it does not show a shipping cost. You did see the shipping costs on the other listings, because that was what it would have cost to ship those items to you if you had purchased them. The shipping costs are shown to potential buyers.
FYI: @talkingwires and @stainlessenginecovers
To double check what I found, I used Ctrl-F search to highlight all the words "shipping" on the page, and scrolled down the whole page, to confirm that every listing showed the shipping cost for me (a potential buyer).
That was true for both the completed listings search (shown in my previous post) and the active listings search as well (shown below). In the active listings search, every organic listing showed the shipping cost. The only ones that did not show shipping were the "sponsored listings" at the end, which were duplicates, and they did show the shipping cost where they showed up naturally in the search.

@lacemaker3 did you catch he was talking about browsing category searches? I found a few absent shipping info....haven't had a chance to look at other categories........
