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