Printful Shipping Profiles when connecting my Etsy store

[TrevorWalshArt]

I am starting with Printful and want to sell products on my Etsy shop. However I am having issues with shipping profiles. I have created a Printful framed poster product with all sizes enabled (four in total). I have disabled free shipping option. I push my product to my Etsy shop and it is listed in the draft section. I published my product as a test and when I checked the shipping for each framed option, they all had the largest shipping estimate at approx 22 euro. So for example the smallest frame delivery cost 22 euro which is obviously not correct. I checked the shipping profile added by Printful and I can see one profile was added for my listing called 'Printful: Large canvas and Framed posters (#PF-FRG7)'. I saw in a YouTube tutorial that when you connect an Etsy store to your PrintFul account that all shipping profiles are pushed to Etsy even if you do not have a product pushed from Printful. However this is not happening for me. I tested by removing my Etsy store from Printful and adding the Etsy store again. However all the shipping profiles were not added. I tested again by adding my Framed poster Printful product and I saw the same issue. Have you seen this issue before. I cannot find any info relating to this issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Additionally, I had over 20 active listing in my Etsy shop before connecting Printful account. I have not found a support forum on Printful side yet but I am checking their support docs also but as of yet I have not found any info.

1 listing can only have 1 shipping profile.

And a shipping profile can only have 1 shipping cost.

There is no way to have different shipping costs when you use variations.

Hello CappuccinoLace,

Thanks for the reply. I was under the impression if using Printful and connecting my Etsy store that when I push a Printful product to my Etsy store as a listing with variations that each variation size will have a different shipping price which is set by Printful (which I configured in PrintFul). This limitation is frustrating. The YT video I am referring to is linked below and skip to 2min time-stamp.

that each variation size will have a different shipping price which is set by Printful

Etsy does not allow shipping prices for variations.

Printful will sync all shipping profiles, so if you had separate listings you could select the correct one.

Thanks for the reply. This is a very common frustration from many other Etsy sellers from what I can see and it appears to be a deliberate policy to force sellers to create multiple listings  (more listing revenue) or encourage sellers to use 'free shipping'.  I have been reviewing this Etsy threads

Etsy sellers need the option to provide different shipping costs per listing variation. This can be added to the profile code I think if the will was there.
