Setting Up Shipping/Handling

Only the fields outlined in red are relevant:

1. Name:  Shipping/Handling
2. Qty:  enough to cover the orders that may require shipping
3. Type:  Sellable
4. FMV:  leave blank (when saved, this will display as N/A which forces FMV to equal Price on each order so Shipping fees won't display as "tax deductible")  Note: blank FMV will only work on initial save of fixed price items.   If you miss this step, you must delete the item and start over to save as FMV = none.
5. Price:  Enter a placeholder value > 0.   Will be edited to reflect correct amount for individual orders.  
6. Display in Public Catalog:  No
