Select 'Flat Rate Postage.

Scroll down until you find Untracked Letter. It's under the Age Verification options, so a fair scroll.

Select that, then add postage cost if using it, or select free post if postage is included in the price.

okay thanks. One item sold for $1.00 and while i was looking at the order, ebay said buy a postage label for 10.95 except its free for my first order, but does that mean I need to buy a postage label for 10.95 each time someone buys my item? because im selling for australia post domestic letter untracked so thats a $1.00 item +$1.50 postage and so I make $2.50, and then I have to buy a postage label for $10.95? seriously? do I have to use it?

Seriously, you are using letter postage. Why would you opt for a parcel? eBay suggestions are normally best ignored. And if you opt for letter rates, you will not be prompted to use a parcel. As already explained, set your postage up properly for what you are going to use.
