I roll everything into the 'Buy Now' price. When you enter $0 into the shipping price box a nice 'Free Shipping' icon appears in your ad. Free shipping also guarantees you a 5 star DSR (dealer seller rating) for that category. Also, NEVER send communication to your buyer unless absolutely necessary. No communication also guarantees a 5 star DSR for that category.
I'm in Tampa, if I ship a bike to someone in Orlando or Miami I may give a shipping refund for the difference if its excessive. For instance, I always calculate $85 for shipping, if it comes to $40 I may refund $30-40 after positive feedback is received.
