you need to list with free shipping to skip the shipping add-on fee (most sellers just add that on to the listing price now)
however they then get you if you ship internationally therefore shipping fees are higher going out of the U.S. because sellers try to pass it on to the buyers

I've sold quite a bit on eBay and never got charged for adding in a shipping cost. I've never heard of that before. Is that something new they started within the past 60 days? The only thing I knew about was that they final value fee is also applied to the shipping fee you put in the listing. This was done because of the morons that would put Buy It Now of $1 and then shipping of $50 or something like that. Basically, to my knowledge, the only fee they charge against shipping cost is the same 9% that they charge for the total sale price. So basically, they add the sale price and shipping cost together, then charge 9% of that.

WoRkAh0LiC, you pretty much nailed it. 50 free listings per month and no "additional" shipping fee charge from eBay. Yes, they did start including the total amount of the sale + shipping in the seller's FVF. So yeah, like I said, eBay/Paypal gets about 12% of your sale
