Method
Calculated (eBay)
This method uses the rates available on eBay. No shipping widget is displayed on the listing because the shipping calculation happens on eBay.
Handling Time
Number of days between receipt of order and despatch. This value is factored into the estimated delivery date range displayed on eBay.
Express Shipping
Whether or not Express Shipping is offered as an option. It is on by default because eBay Premium Listings require express shipping to be offered.
Express Shipping Cost
Express Shipping only supports flat rate. The amount entered in this field is the rate charged. It defaults to 999 because eBay Premium Listings require express shipping to be offered but doesn't stipulate anything about the rate.
