Shipping
You can add Shipping as an online-only event website feature if you provide that option to your winners.
To access the Shipping options for the event, from the main Event Dashboard go to Items and then click on the Shipping entry in the sidebar actions menu.
The Shipping functions are an Event Website only feature. You cannot add Shipping via the auction dashboards. It only appears for the bidder while checking out online.
You can manually add additional Shipping charges using the Record Purchase function and a For Sale type item. See How To Manually Add Shipping And Handling for more details.
