For each item, national and international shipping costs are indicated on the product page. It could be that your shipping costs could change after calculating which items you would like to purchase, and which shipping method you have chosen. For example, lots of sellers provide a shipping discount when you buy more than one item from them in a single order. So look out in particular for any Combined Shipping Discount.

What does ‘Combined Shipping’ mean?
With Combined Shipping, a seller can offer you a shipping discount, if you buy more than one article from their shop in the same transaction.
You are charged the Single Shipping price for the item with the highest shipping price. For all other items, you are charged a Combined Shipping price – which is quite often 0 EUR!
For example: You have a bag in your shopping basket, with a shipping cost of 5 EUR. Then in the same shop you discover a brooch you want to buy, with the combined shipping cost of 0.00 EUR. If you put this brooch in your shopping basket and buy that as well, you don't need to pay any additional shipping costs for it!
