The total cost of customs and taxes for the international leg of an order shipped using the Global Shipping Program. This amount is calculated and supplied for each item by the international shipping provider when a buyer views the item properties.

The cost of insurance. For flat rate shipping, this is the value set by the seller, if any. For calculated shipping, this is the value calculated by eBay with the shipping carrier for the particular item and can only be determined once the final item price is known when the listing ends. To determine whether a listing has ended, see EndTime or ListingStatus in GetSingleItem.

Whether the seller offers shipping insurance and, if so, whether the insurance is optional or required. Flat and calculated shipping.

The listed shipping cost of the item. If multiple items were purchased, this includes the listed ShippingServiceAdditionalCost.

In GetSingleItem, this is always returned when ShippingCostSummary is returned, except when the ShippingType is Freight.

If ShippingCosts is specified for the IncludeSelector, and if the seller has specified local pickup for this item; the LocalPickup boolean is returned as true. This indicates that the seller does not ship this item. If local pickup was not specified for this item by the seller, the LocalPickup boolean is not returned.

The basic shipping cost of the item. This reflects the domestic shipping cost or the international shipping costs, depending on which applies (that is, whether the bidder/buyer is in the same country as the listing site of the item).

In GetSingleItem, this is always returned when ShippingCostSummary is returned, except for when the ShippingType is Freight.

GetShippingCosts: Flat shipping: single-item listing: this matches (in)ShippingServiceCost; multi-quantity listing: with a request version of 665 or greater, this is the total of (in)ShippingServiceCost plus ((in)ShippingServiceAdditionalCost times the number of items beyond the first item), and with a request version lower than 665, this is (in)ShippingServiceCost.
Promotional shipping: For a request version lower than 665, promotional shipping has no effect on shipping costs. Otherwise: if the promotional shipping option is lower than other shipping services being offered, the savings is reflected in the returned shipping cost; the shipping service named Promotional Shipping Service (or whatever is the localized name for it) is included among the shipping services; if the promotional shipping cost is lower than the cost of other shipping services being offered, it is presented first in the list (the lowest shipping service cost is always presented first, regardless of whether there is promotional shipping).
Shipping surcharge: With a request version of 665 or greater, shipping cost includes any surcharge, and surcharge is not returned as an individual tag. With a request version lower than 665, surcharge is not part of the total cost and is returned as its own tag.

The name of a shipping service.

How the seller stated that cost of shipping is to be determined, such as flat rate or calculated.
