What part of "as long as the buyer pays the shipping cost" didn't you understand? When I sell something on eBay, I either use their service to calculate shipping costs and add them to the price, or I charge a flat rate that covers the most distant location, or I hide the cost of shipping in the cost of the item where it doesn't show. That's what everyone who has a clue about shipping does when they sell stuff.

And I am well aware of how easy it is to print your own shipping labels at home, because I do it often when I sell things on eBay, after I put the label on the box, I still have to schlep the box to the local shipping center that handles FedEx, UPS, and the USPS.

the point made if shipping cost is too high the buyer will not carry through, he will abandon his quest for the eqpt..

you don't have to schlep it to post office george.. you sell a lot and not aware of this? and even UPS and FedEX will pickup for 18.00 a week, or it used to be, but USPS is free pickup..

it does not need to be exposed to the elements of thievery.. use a locked staging area with only the carrier knowing where they key is hidden.. I use a diamond tread stainless steel tool box the kind you see in beds of pickup trucks.. most time I leave it unlocked, but if I have to be somewhere they know where the key is..
