When i list an item, near the bottom of the page there is a space for shipping cost, well everyone is e-mailing me asking for shipping cost as it dont show on my e-bay listing or any of my invoices that are sent to people.
Also when they go to pay, it dont say how much the shipping is?
Where on earth am i going wrong?

Well, before I drink too much good California Wine, let me me say that on almost all of my auctions, I do not give a shipping charge until after the auction closes. I put in my TOS that I will ship by Priority Mail (if under 3 lbs) or FedEx Ground, depending on their Zip Code & weight of pkg. In The past year since USPS changed their Priority Mail charges, it has worked very well for me.

I'm not quite sure where you are talking.

When you list you need to fill in the site specifics on shipping, either Ebay or Vendio or both.

Make sure to click (I am specifing shipping) when listing.

Kabbs, and if for some reason its not showing up, you can always put it in the body of your description as well.

I always add it to the body of the description and fill it in for the auction specifics too.

in doing this, I am hoping the bidders will notice it, some still can't see it.

Many buyers do not even look at the item specific section for shipping costs or even know where it is so having the s/h prominently posted in the description is a very good idea.
If a buyers is looking for item X and has four choices from the search engine results I bet the auctions that clealy list the s/h have a much better chance of getting selection than the auctions that do not mention any s/h at all.
