Hi Debbie,
If you have an iPad or a phone without a home button, touch near the top of the

heard two more tones. Then lift your finger.

It's appropriate to charge for shipping if you are paying to have it shipped.
It is not if you are shipping free matter.

It depends how much they are charging for shipping.
Are they charging for the cost of handling, i.e. the time it takes to package,
