Build the shipping into the item cost

Do you actually have these items or are you dropshipping?

You can't send a phone by Media Mail  samsung galaxy a54 5g unlocked brand new. Shipped with USPS Media Mail.

You can't get any cheaper than those you've already mistakenly listed as Media Mail. Your items won't ship that way and you need to correct those. At the least, you'll get hit with upcharges from USPS. At the worst, your packages will come back to you... for you to apply the correct postage to. Your cheapest method will be Ground Advantage, to properly ship. Good luck.

You need to fix your shipping.

You don't have anything that qualifies for Media Mail.

I see you are using the ebay label but are you getting the discounted price? For example if the customer pays retail postage at $7.50 you might pay only $6.50 when you buy the label.

Here's what qualifies for Media Mail. (Your current listings don't qualify.) Yes, MM is cheaper but you need GA labels.

Shipping with tracking, which is what buyers expect in e-commerce is not inexpensive.

It is unlikely that you will find a lower price than Ebay's shipping costs you for Ground Advantage.

Some items in some categories qualify for a service called Ebay Standard Envelope. It is slightly more expensive than letter mail, and the tracking is marginally reliable.

You could ship by letter mail for small items but if they are not flat items you may need to pay for a non-machineable surcharge. They are not tracked and you will lose any item not received claims. This is an unacceptable choice for many sellers and buyers.

You still have media mail on your Samsung Car Charger. As well as being an error in acceptability to the post office, this will make some buyers believe you are untrustworthy, especially when your listing is lower in price than the identical item on other sellers' ads on your listings.

Media mail is for books.  The post office can and will open any packages with media mail.  If in violation, they will charge you for the most expensive shipping at that weight.  Priority or ground advantage are the types of shipping you should use.  Shipping is NOT cheap.  Not sure why you think it is.

Then you may want to change the part in your description that says you are shipping it by media mail
