How to always auto-select Flat Rate shipping on new listings

[josephsco]

Every time I start a listing the Calculate Shipping option is auto-selected.

I want it to always have the Flat Rate Shipping auto-selected.

The reason is because I have to click twice each time I sell (to change to Flat Rate Shipping) and every time I switch it takes 2-4 seconds to load.  After doing 80 listings like this it wastes a lot of time and is starting to grate on me.

Any help appreciated!

I would finish one representative listing to act as a template, then do a Sell Similar operation to create the next listing from that, and it will inherit all the Shipping details that you set up previously.

Usually I do Sell Similar from a book that has already sold and matches the name and date etc. of the one I'm selling.  This saves a lot of time. 

Am I not allowed to do that but have it default to Flat Rate Shipping each time?

Are you using business policies? If not perhaps you should.
