Depends on how you list it. I make my customers pay.

OK There are different ways to answer this.
Firstly, the seller may offer FREE SHIPPING, in which case obviously the buyer does not have to pay for shipping (but you'd better believe that the seller is making a big enough profit to easily cover the shipping costs!).
If the shipping is not free, then the buyer pays up front the shipping fee along with the cost of the item. Then the seller actually pays for the shipping (with the buyer's money).
Sometimes, in order to entice buyers, the shipper will reduce the amount he/she is charging for shipping to below what it will actually cost him or her. So you are in a way, sharing the cost. But again, the profit on the item is enough to cover whatever loss the seller has on the shipping costs.

the person that buys the stuff usually pays for shipping unless the seller states that the shipping is free.

The buyer usually pays an inflated shipping cost and the seller gets a profit from it. You have to be careful.

the person that sells the stuff tells the person who buys the stuff how much shipping , packing and handling will be and the buyer pays it.

when you buy you should be aware of the price of shipping, it will usually say at the bottom and be added in when you pay the amount. The person shipping it to use uses what you paid them in shipping to ship it to you. Make sense now?

You charge the person that is buying the item the shipping, you can get an estimate of the cost at your local post office.

I sell stuff on ebay. The shipper decides the charge. You can make it free if you want or charge an arm and a leg. I usually choose a flat fee. Don't go crazy or no one will buy it.

The price of shipping is added to the buyers bill by the seller!

the buyer pays for the shipping in most cases. You need to include it in the listing though.

It's always the buyer who pays shipping and your costs to send it
