Postage/Freight section on a listed sale item

[jennifer195909]

Does anyone know how to manually place wording within the postage section of a sale item to reflect freight outside of ebays fixed Aust post component.

You can't put wording in the postage section, but you can select freight as a postage option, which does not display a postage cost to anyone but lets buyers know that a courier will be used and a postage quote will need to be provided. You can also use the rate table option to specify up to 15 different postage costs that vary according to the buyer's location, or what they buy. 

There's some more information about postage options here: http://pages.ebay.com.au/help/pay/shipping-costs.html

Are you using the rate table? I use it for most of my items, which used to be 'freight' as it gives the buyer the cost rather than them having to hunt through the description. However, there is some critical flaws with it, and I have been emailing eBay for the past 4 months to try to rectify it.

Is anyone else using them and if so,would love to ask some questions as to how they get around some of the flaws
