Shipping shouldn’t be free. It costs money to transport goods. If you’re not paying for that cost then at best it’s included in the price of the item, but more likely it’s a corporate ploy to squeeze out competition or a psychological trick to get you addicted to frivolous spending.
Shipping from China should be way more expensive. It’s still defined as a developing country in the UN and gets favorable shipping fees to devekoped countries. I think the fees increased a few years ago, but I believe it’s still the case.
Shipping costs are also subsidized by the government.

Meanwhile Ebay shipping be like:
Yes, this 5€ product has a 185€ shipping fee, we are dispatching an heritage breed horse with an actual knight rider to deliver it to you apparently.
Is the horse fed free range oats though?
It’s never “free”, people just don’t like seeing it as a completely new line item. It’s always baked in.
