Value | Description |

CalculatedDomesticFlatInternational | The seller specified one or more calculated domestic shipping services and one or more flat international shipping services. |
CustomCode | Reserved for future use. |
Flat | Flat shipping model: the seller establishes the cost of shipping and cost of shipping insurance, regardless of what any buyer-selected shipping service might charge the seller. Note: This shipping type includes an option for a Flat Rate Freight shipping service. For details about freight shipping, see Specifying Freight Shipping in the eBay Features Guide. |
FlatDomesticCalculatedInternational | The seller specified one or more flat domestic shipping services and one or more calculated international shipping services. |
Free | Free shipping. This field is output-only so if you want to use AddItem to specify a free Shipping Cost, specify 0 in Item.ShippingDetails.ShippingServiceOptions.ShippingServiceCost. |
Freight | Freight shipping model. Available only for US domestic shipping. The cost of shipping is automatically determined by an affiliated third party, FreightQuote.com, based on the item location (postal code). Note: This shipping type cannot be set via API, but it is automatically set by eBay when a buyer selects the FreightQuote.com option on the US eBay website. For details about types of freight shipping that you can specify via API, see Freight shipping in the Trading API User Guide. |
FreightFlat | Freight shipping model. Available only for the US, UK, AU, CA and CAFR sites, and only for domestic shipping. FreightFlat applies to shipping with carriers that are not affiliated with eBay. It is negotiated freight, not a flat rate. Sellers negotiate the shipping cost with their chosen carrier and the buyer before completing the sale. FreightFlat shipping may be used when calculated shipping cannot be used due to the greater weight of the item. For details about freight shipping, see Freight shipping in the Trading API User Guide. |
NotSpecified | The seller did not specify the shipping type. |
