    Let me guess: this is intentionally done to show up at the top of flights sorted by price low -> high lists.

          Yeah. Anyone using eBay long enough knows to prioritize listings with free shipping over others.

          The same is true with all any other services, the more they break it out the more likely you’ll be scammed.

          It’s not for the consumer’s benefit. They are structuring the transaction to give themselves levers to pull.

            it’s funny when they choose $100 shipping on an object that actually does cost $50 to ship, but are $80 cheaper than any other option and have the audacity to complain when I want it shipped to me in Alaska.
